Did you ever finish the Neosoul workout book, I’ve been anticipating the learning material? Also are there any chord funks that focus on funk chord inversions and triads specifically? Great lesson as always. Happy holidays!

Hi, just found you and subscribed. Great stuff!! I’ve been a lifelong metal and blues musician of 28 years in kind of a renaissance learning stuff I had never spent the time on. Thanks!!
Funk is definitely one of the genres I’m trying to step into and really get the vibes of it. I like that you put it into a blues format

Keep listening to it. Over and over and over and over and over. Imperative that u live and breathe the music u want to play
This just reminds me of just how much I love being a guitar player. No matter what style we play, we’re all one community.
Nice lesson Maestro. I always tell young funk players to remember that the right-hand is the drummer. 🤘🏾

@@johnmcaleese8459 Keep churning out solid and precise16th notes with your strumming hand. When you need to accent, stay on time but strike the strings "snappier" when you need the chord to jump out. Left hand muting is essential also. Nile Rogers and Jimmy Nolen are 2 of the best examples of guys who set the standard in this style and technique.
Thanks dude . I love alot of old skool funk/ oldies tunes . Im a ndn dude that jams everything and just want to be up on all styles ! Thanks home boy for the condensed riffs ! Blessings G
ive been playing a very long time..that 9th ghost slide in is sooooo amazingly funkeeeeeee....thanks!!!
These lessons are always so quick but I come away from them knowing new stuff every time. So grateful for what you do here
I’m more of a rock and blues guy. But I grew up listening to James brown and hearing funk at skating parties. Stuff like this would be great to bust out around my brother and his friends. They would love this stuff.
Kerry-I never was really into funk until I stumbled upon your videos while looking to expand my chord knowledge. You are an incredible teacher who has expanded my mind. Thank you!

Thank you so much!
Mr. Smooth. You are the best teacher the internet has to offer.
brother here and Cleiton Bastos from Brazil, thank you very much for the lessons, I always follow and learn a lot.
Thank you brother you’re saving my butt right now. I used to think I was pretty funky because I gave him play with Michael blend, Prince’s Drummer at one point and I’ve been in the black church for years. But the Director it is church in Pittsburgh where I’m at now it’s telling me that I’ve been pushing the beat being too aggressive…. Got that rock ‘n’ roll with me you know?? Anyhow, I’m learning a lot and there’s not too many people out there playing funky gospel guitar so you’re a real godsend, my brother
i love when you said funk is about attitude and feel. that's exactly it! and emphasizing the f... out of the 1 beat. in the book of george and bootsy of the funk bible, it says thou shall emphasize the 1 above all else :)
Trying to learn funk guitar and this is the lesson I've been looking for. Thank you!
being a young guitarist, i often look to the older generation around my town to further my knowledge. the advice i got from them was to learn funk; "those cats arent faking it, either you have good time or you dont play". this lesson has been very helpful, thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world!
Funk and Disco are definitely what i wanna play. Especially from the 70s vibes. I don't know the chords, and my hands are beginner level but the soul is there. hahah
Great stuff Kerry. Love this lesson. I’m interested in incorporating funk into rock.
Just learning funk more. Great video. Another thing I'm learning with regards to funk especially is how useful diads can be as well
This is awesome and really helpful! Great work with the video. Appreciate ya sharing!
Nice lesson man sweet tone
Loved the lesson man, I’m definitely more of a percussive rhythmic player and I’ve been playing funk for a while without even knowing that was the genre but now I do! Cheers!
That’s got a groove you could drive a bus down. Loved it🤙🏻
I play guitar for my church and your lessons help me a ton by just getting me use to moving around the fretboard. Keep up the good work.
This is a great lesson. And yet, I think that I might need to look at your beginner videos. The areas where I am challenged are muting and occasional fret buzz. Great lesson though
Best funk lesson I’ve seen. Thank you Kerry. Subbed. That Suhr Tele is fantastic btw
Not a funk player but was curious on the style and techniques. OMG, this looks fun! Subscribed!
GOD BLESS YOU bruh! Can't tell you how much I listened to you when I was getting started. These lessons are amazing you are answering a lot of questions I had regarding the number systems and when to throw in passing chords.

I’m not a funk guitarist but I keep going back to that g9 a lot. Great tone btw. Thanks a lot for the lesson man!
How much reverb do you want? Kerry: Yes Another great vid!
Been playing forever, but not so much funk, but I love funk! So, thanks for those chord shapes. Yes will grab my ax and watch again!
Great lesson. I love the Tele sound.
That triad move is awesome. Gotta get that down. Thanks, Kerry!
Never played Funk in my life! However, it makes everybody moves and is so much fun to play. Thanks for the fantastic lesson Kerry!
Thank you Kerry for this amazing videos
More funk lessons please!! This was so helpful
BIG BIG thumbs up from me. Loved it. Will get practicing when I have the time!

Great lesson. Thanks. Well explained.
Like your funk lessons I don’t mind paying for the lessons you give
Thanks for this lesson. Learned more about funk here than in 20yrs playing out.
Awesome bro will use this in church
That was fire man 🔥 would love to hear more theory about what's happening with the F - C/E G - progression, but maybe that's just me being a theory geek haha
Great lesson. I'm going to incorporate this into shout music. This will really take 'em to church!

It’s perfect for that
I've been listening to a track by Miles Davis called "Shout" and he's got some really funky, really good guitar backing him on it. So I've been seeing if maybe I could play it, and man is it hard. And I'm not sure I've even got the chords right. And also realized I needed to focus on my right hand rhythm too. So I'm watching what you do on this video and trying to play along with you and you have me feeling like maybe I can do this. Your video is great . Thanks very much for making it.
Love the funky funk....
thank you for sharing this gem
im not at all a funk player, but im trying to broaden my guitar playing for my mathcore band and this lesson really helped me!
Mega lesson mate, Thankyou 👍🏻
Thank you for the demonstration. I finally get it
Great lesson... your inspiring me to funk it up...thanks...much props..
I’m just getting into funk through a friend and this is one of the first videos I’ve seen. Thank you so much it’s been so helpful!!
Kerry, thanks for the funk lesson. I needed this tutorial because you break it down in ways others have fallen short. I just join your camp and I am hoping I will find new teaching from one of your early videos...Call "Old School Chords." But you did not talk much about the chord structure themselves. Man, I remember that sound from some of the Gospel tunes that would come on WDIA out of Memphis, Tenn. Thanks again for all that you do to help us play better guitar.
Love it! Thanks.
This is helping me a lot. I just joined a funk band. Your a great teacher.
its that added d minor and just the way you get those last 3 hits in, groovy af man.
This is great! Thanks so much Kerry
Kerry, I'm always on the lookout for your nuggets and especially r&b and especially funk. You or Josh Scott are my favorite Alabamians.
First time watcher and I love this dude, def knows what he’s talking about
Great instruction

Just getting into a little funk to incorporate it into some lofi beats, and your lesson is unbelievably helpful. Thank you for taking the time to make such a great lesson.
I've loved the funk since I was a kid in the 70s. I'm picking up guitar now and stumbled on to your video. Wow! Your comments about feeling the music you're making were eye opening! Great video with easy to understand advice! Earned a new subscriber!
Great lesson young brother,may I add try to lock in with the drummer's hi-hat in a live band situation.😊
Yeaaah, killer stuff, man. Thanks for sharing!

I really enjoyed this. Thanks dude
Love it! New sub. Exactly the level I’m looking for
Love this! Thank you.
Love it !! Like that swagger I always heard in the rhythm of funk, yet still has a bluesy chord progression going on in the bridge. Thank you so much. Love from Philly. P.S. Did I see a bandmate with a PRS? Just picked one up to go with my Strat. Again, thanks.
Yo! This is so helpful..thank you so much!!
Keep up the funk!!
Anther Dope Lesson. Thanks Bro

Suggestion, after a lesson like this, lay down a jam track with this progression
love this lesson. Great authentic feel thank you!
I could hear some Motown sounds. I am sold. Thank you.
I always played with a lot of distortion. I'm trying to clean up my playing. Never really played funk, but I like it.
