Understand and play 7/8 with this awesome riff from Guthrie Govan!

Guthrie Govan


In this video, we are going to explore a somewhat unusual time signature: 7/8. And to understand this unusual rhythm, we are going to analyze an extremely educational riff: the title “Seven” by guitarist Guthrie Govan. If you have never worked with somewhat “exotic” time signatures, this video will help you understand, count and feel 7/8 in a simple and musical way. We will see together: – what a measure in 7/8 is – how to count it easily – why it can seem strange at first – and above all how to feel it on the guitar thanks to a very effective riff. 🎧 To practice properly, you can download the drums for free in 7/8: https://objectif-guitare.com/rythme-7-8-guitare/ 00:00 Guthrie Govan's riff in 7/8 01:23 What is a time signature? 03:11 Understanding the rhythm in 7/8 04:55 Exercise to feel the 7/8 07:15 Seven's riff explained My E-BOOK “8 courses in 8 weeks to master the basics of improvisation” is available for free download: https://objectif-guitare.com/recevez-le-e-book/ MY SITE: https://objectif-guitare.com/ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/objectif.guitare INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/objectifguitare/ Intro music: AdKey:WmP_jV59wZ4J7o #guthriegovan #seven #tutoguitare
