funkjam


funkjam is a style in which a lead guitarist, a b-ssist and a drummer can jam together. it is in the style of funk, which means the notes are syncopated. usually both the b-ss and lead guitar use pentatonic scales.

there are different styles of funkjam:

light funkjam
the guitarist plays with very low gain and reverb on the bridge pickup and a wah-wah pedal. the b-ssist plays clean with smooth, finger picked notes and can include some light slapping. the drums are light.

heavy funkjam
the guitarist plays with medium/high gain in either the bridge pickup of the neck/middle pickup. the b-ss plays with low gain and heavy slapping. the drums are very heavy with lots of cymbal crashes, in other words, the drummer has a spaz-out.

red hot chili peppers normally play a funkjam for the intro of their gigs.
