I practice this occasionally even though I've been playing for 50+ years. It's hard playing with folks who don't know how to count and keep time. It happens at a lot of open jams. Thanks for another good lesson, Griff. Stay safe.
I needed to practice this kinda of stuff when I first started playing it took me along time to realize that timing and rhythm are VERY important, thanks for the lesson..
you can also use audacity to create a click track for as many bars as you want and at what ever tempo you want. then you can play along and even record your playing over the top which will allow you to put the guitar down and listen to your playing against the click track you get a visual reference to show you if you are striking the notes in time. I just tried for the first time and will be doing this a lot.
This is perfect for what I need to work on. I can play the chords easy enough, and I know the minor pentatonic scales pretty good. At this point for me it is learning to play lead over the chord progression and keeping time that I'm struggling with. What looper would you suggest, and why is one better than just playing with a backing track?
Just picked up the basic Ditto Looper. Watched enough videos on loopers to answer my own question about why they are better than backing tracks but thanks anyway. Appreciate the lessons.
Love the timing lesson - I see you you mute the bass note with your ring finger......what is the timing......I play acoustic and palm mute, bute sometimes don't want the muffled sound
Metronomes train students to play slightly behind the beat and sound too robotic. We all have timing its call your body clock ,you learn to enhance it. Metronomes should be used for reference only. listen to one playing triplets or eighth notes and you will hear the problem, (no one plays like that .Its not pleasing to the hear)
love all your tutorials Griff.
This one is especially important for an advanced older beginner guitar player like myself.
Thank you for all you do.
great lesson!! appreciate you playing through everything in full for beginners like me
Thank you Griff!!
