Product description
"Happy" is a modern soul-funk number with a blue-note-heavy, heavily syncopated melody. In the verse (part A), the melody (Pharrell's falsetto-like soul voice) is played by the 1st guitar, in the chorus (part B) by the 3rd guitar. The bridge (part C) is mainly percussive in the original (with hand claps), in this arrangement ghost notes and guitar percussion are used.
