I have been playing fairly regularly with a buddy of mine who plays lead guitar. We have had a couple of bass players sit in with us but many times it is just the two of us. When we don't have a bass player we'll just jam with a bass backing track we find online or play with songs via youtube - nothing elaborate. The problem I am having is my buddy, while proficient in many areas, does not have a great sense of rhythm, often falling behind or ahead of the beat in the middle of a phrase. Whenever he gets off base it throws me off and I find that I get ahead or behind the beat. How do you guys handle it when the other players are not staying with you? I feel awkward telling him about it - he has been playing guitar for years while I have less than a year of experience.
I suppose if I had a click going it might help but when I play songs I usually like to turn the click off and feel it. I dunno - any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks!
