Practicing Improvisation (Funk GROOVE Mastery in 5 Minutes | GJ 222) (Day 1596 - 1602, Week 230)

Hello all. My name is Steven and I have been playing guitar for over 10 years now. It first started as a hobby then I eventually took it as a career. I graduated from a conservatory as a classical guitarist but it has always been my dream to play jazz, blues, or any other genre with a full knowledge to what I'm playing.
Tho you might expect that I should be better than this due to my degree, but to me, improvisation is something that you have to work harder on if it's not your talent to begin with. I don't have perfect pitch, and I'm still not creative enough when improvising. I do know my notes, and my music theory, but as you can see, I still cannot apply all of those straight away on the guitar.
Ever since I graduated in 2017, I completely lost the fire within me to improve, and I'm putting these series of videos out here (starting July 2, 2020) to push myself to practice more and prove that you can always learn a new skill with enough dedication.

Hard working man! Bravo. Same with me but I still stayed in around 400 days. By the way what’s the document you used to study can you share with us?

[@christevenvalenzuela4061]

Hey man thank you so much!🙇‍♂️ I still have a very long way to go 😅 Honestly, it’s just mostly any videos I can find here on yt, from Jens Larsen, to Tom Quayle, or Robbie Barnby, to Tomo Fujita etc.. I also do have the Jazz Guitar Method by Jody Fisher which I try to read from time to time. Other than that, it’s still just mostly grinding😅
More power to you man, and I hope you can still go further beyond than your 400 days 🍻
