Jazz Guitar Lessons

 

Jazz is possibly one of the most complex styles of music and one that requires many hours (often years) of study to become proficient in. As well as getting to grips with the general feel of swinging the feel, beyond the standard ii v i progressions - there are a wealth of tricks and harmonic jazz musicians call upon.

It's great to start with the pentatonic scale and throw a few chromatic notes in as a starting point... but then you need to really know your scales, get some chops together and start working these through the standards (and Circle of 4ths of course!).
