How To Get Faster At Playing A Shuffle Beat - Metronome Speed Builder
The shuffle is such a lovely beat to play, but for a lot of the guys and girls starting out with this it’s really tough to get it going to the point where you can successfully jam along with classic shuffle songs. Use this method to work it up to speed as efficiently as possible!
Start slow, keep it smooth and use your metronome at a speed where you can play it comfortably for at least a minute or so. Then notch up the metronome a bit at a time until you hit your “improvement zone” - the point where you can still successfully play the shuffle beat, but it’s just a bit of a challenge. Live in this zone, stick with it and improvement is inevitable. Go for it!
Have fun and please let me know if any questions,
Mike :)
