Guitar Lesson Overview
Funk guitar is fun. Here's a fairly typical funk groove, or at least it's typical for my funk playing. It's based around an E9 chord, a very common funk chord. The inversion of this E9 is: 3rd, 7th, 9th and 5th on top. Nice chord to know anyway.
I created a little quick loop through my MacBook Pro and Garageband - fantastic combination for getting some jam tracks going fast.

Learning guitar at your own pace
I want to tell you about the guitar lesson web site JamPlay. They have kindly offered a special 7 Day Free trial to visitors of Dolphinstreet.com. I have reviewed their site, and I have to say it is VERY impressive.
There are lots of teachers and many different areas to learn from. It is well organized, and you can learn songs, techniques, etc - very complete website for learning. After 7 days, you will pay a monthly subscription continue. For the 7 trial, you don't have to give out your credit card number.
Go check it out and see what you think. Since it is completely free for 7 days, you really should test it out. You have nothing to lose. If you are interested in learning guitar online, you would be silly not to take advantage of this. If you do decide to sign up, I receive a little bonus, so this way you help support dolphinstreet as well!
