Funk is just impossible
I just cant do it!!!! :( the chord changes are too fast and the rythm is almost impossible to keep up with. is there any kind of tutorial anyone knows on how to play beginner funk? Thanks

Not too into it, but i like to think i know a thing or two about a thing or too.
Start slow. Learn what types of chords are used-they are typically different than normal shapes.
Remember that rythm is number one. Timing is everthing.
I found >THIS< on google in about 3 seconds.

The chord changes don't have to be that fast - that's what the funky scratching is for!
Most of the funk I play uses 9th chords... start slow and keep your strumming up/down even, then all you need to do is release the pressure on your fretting hand when you want a scratch rather than the chord tone to come out.
Once you've got the rhythm in your head/hands, it gets way easier....

I have a CD iso that's 60s funk/soul. It breaks it down into easy to learn riffs (one a day for 4 weeks). If you're interested, PM me and I'll see if I can't hook you up.
