This guy is FUNKY! As I'm co-incidentally teaching myself slap funk bass, he's a dude doing it on an electric guitar (the instrument I'm coming from- Doh!). The thing that makes this type of song arrangement so cool is all the little pops, slaps, accents, ghost note left hand slaps, etc. that you usually find in bass guitar. Although this song, written by Nile Rogers, one of my favorite clean guitar funk players, featured a bit of that on the original recording, it wasn't taken to this level. Insanely rhythmic. This is one of the coolest arrangements I've seen in awhile.I'm sure we'll see this guy in an Apple Ipod commercial soon(grin).

Ben Rules, I have known him for years this style is only a small fraction of what he can do. He plays many instruments and is phenominal on all of them. Additionally he plays many other style of music on guitar and I wish I could find some video of his other styles of playing
