[@ald7688]

Such beautiful sounds,opens up whats been unseen.

[@YinFuBG]

This has helped me understand what i do and why it works. You and Jens Larsen are the two best at this that I have found on youtube.

[@rogerloydmccoy]

You are a great player and teacher. I joined TrueFire for your course. Thanks for all the lessons her on KZbin!!

[@Kangbino]

What a great teacher.

[@souviksen7497]

Amazing lesson. This was very informative and helpful. All the magic while soloing over a major 251 progression happens generally over the 5 chord.

[@meeno_the_man]

It's fantastic for the synapses going through this with guitar in hand and falling so far behind you, but knowing that I'm close to understanding and being able to apply all this with just a bit more study. New doors, flying open all around me. What a gas!

[@daveweigand5935]

I just picked up your new Truefire Course !

[@robbertr1558]

Been practicing the 2-5-1 a lot lately but this is definetly giving me some new ideas to work with. Awesome stuff

[@rolfbergman1176]

you are the best teacher ever regards Roffe from sweden

[@jeffreyreid7036]

A lot to digest here I see myself coming back to this one several times over the next year. Thanks

[@JackRuch]

Great to hear!

[@brianvaughan4712]

This video is nothing short of a master class...to absorb and apply this material, you're well on your way to being a good musician as well as a good guitarist...thank you, thank you, thank you!

[@JackRuch]

Thank you!

[@paulabadie9663]

You are a very good instructor. I very much enjoy your lessons. Thanks.

[@andrewthesea]

thanks Jack!

[@njigyfd]

Excellent tutorial. Clear, smooth instruction. Sincere thanks.

[@richjohnson8261]

This was at a perfect level for me to run with. Now to be able to quickly identify the upper inversion color when I'm not in the key of C 🙂 As you said, drop the root and build on the 3rd. For II (Dm7)->3rd(FM7). For V (G7)->3rd (Bdim). For I (CM7)-> 3rd (Em). This has been a big jump in my progression. Thank you so much. Great Videos.

[@jack6136]

Jack I made it to 7:40 into this post and I have enough work to do for the next six months largely due to my lack knowledge but this post has opened up some fantastic ideas insights music. Thank you for helping me sound less boring less crummy and lackluster! 🎸👍🎸👍🎸

[@JackRuch]

Awesome! Happy to help

[@stephenowen5229]

There's always so much meat on the bone in these lessons that they blow my mind. I've been working on Jack's Minor Blues Basics video for months now. And you're absolutely spot on about sounding more interesting. These videos have really raised the level of my playing. I really recommend Jack's Shade of Blues course on TrueFire too.

[@QBRX]

Yeah, it's a bit too much for me. But I love it.

[@Jay-lr3me]

@@stephenowen5229 do you have an all access course on true fire ? Well worth it, I’m getting so much mileage out of jacks courses and josh smiths courses, and there’s tonnes of other great instructors on there

[@stephenowen5229]

@@Jay-lr3me I don't have all access on TrueFire. The only reason is that I think i'd become too distracted with all the tasty stuff and not focus and spend enough time on one thing. I managed to pick up a couple of Josh Smith's courses in the last sales so i think I paid something like $10 for each course. Josh is also an absolute monster! I've been focusing on Jack Ruch's courses because he tends to play lines at a pace I'm more comfortable with. I tried a couple of Josh's lessons and they were too advanced for me. They're excellent all the same and I hope I can make a start on them later this year. I was more interested in some 'outside' lines when I check out TrueFire. Jack's course really helped me to understand what I'm aiming for. Cory Congilio's Outside Blues course is also excellent. Don't you find having all access is a bit of information overload?

[@bmack8062]

So much good stuff. Thanks!

[@satchrules101]

Very well explained lesson! Thank you Jack.

[@miguelsassot7921]

Thx for this…I get to understand stuff that otherwise I would still be wondering about. Hoping to keep connecting the dots. Go on and thx again!❤

[@vincentnair52]

Brilliant lesson. God bless you 🙏

[@ccbphoto]

Thanks for the ideas! On my way to Patreon!

[@duderserious]

Great lesson and well delivered! Thanks!

[@RayMancha]

Thank you Jack! for all your inspiring videos. There's teachers that can play great, but lack as teachers. And then there's the very few great guitarist like you Jack that can actually teach at the highest true fire🔥 level as well. Wish you all the best!

[@f2fProfeSilva]

I loved you mini lesson. Thanks!

[@mykibalzy]

Beautifully explained. Your musical expression is aligned with your personality ❤

[@jimc6687]

First to comment on your fantastic new blues rhythm TrueFire course, bud!! Here's my comment: This gem of a rhythm course already has me upping my rhythm playing game! Jack Ruch delivers all sorts of phenomenal concepts to our regular rhythm jamming with fun tweaks and concepts that immediately impress and sometimes aches my fretting hand (but in a great, positive way!). Absolutely worth every penny and I feel like I'm one on one in a studio room with Jack giving me careful lessons that shall last me a lifetime!! Next level material for me and I will eagerly await Mr. Ruch's future courses......rhythm and soloing! Jim C.

[@UndertheBigTree]

What a superb teacher!

[@robertgreen3702]

Thank you! Very helpful.👍

[@MDCSYD]

Thank you so much. This is such an invaluable lesson. I got stuck in simple 1-3-5-7….etc Arpegios for quiet a while and have been looking for a way break away from those…this lesson has opened up some new doors! Cheers

[@JackRuch]

You're very welcome!

[@JuanalaCubananana222]

[@kevinhines3487]

Thanks so much, Jack. This is exactly what I have been working on. Perfect timing. Your playing beings joy to my life. Inspirational. Keep it up.

[@jimmaveety6343]

super useful lesson Jack !! BTW, I just finished your TrueFire courses "Shades of Blue" and "Blues Rhythm". They were great too. Your content and teaching style is great !!

[@rokam5568]

Very usable lessons, greetings from Italy 👍👍✋✋

[@delta1ster]

Fantastic lessons Jack kudos so wel explained and so understandably well. Specifically the relationship between chords substations and melody. Thanks Rick

[@JackRuch]

Glad it was helpful

[@steve_one]

Thanks for these videos Jack. Great inspitaration for stepping into song formation and turnarounds for improvising. Very much appreciated. Good work 🙂

[@JackRuch]

Glad you like it! Thank you

Thanks!

[@DimeCrisBag]

Great!

[@VideonetChannelWorld]

Awesome lesson.

[@JimmyDel]

This is great stuff again! Diminished and tritone substitutions still catch me out. I'm getting much better so this stuff is always helpful. Would you ever do a video on the positions of the major 7th, minor 7th and the half diminished arpeggios in the 5 positions of the neck? Might be a boring topic but it would be extremely helpful. Thanks Jack 🤘

[@douglasmayersanchez2870]

Hey Jack! I love your recent true fire course! Especially the Bm Blues. Reminds me of Jubu! Can you do an in depth lesson on Gospel Music? Do you also do quartet drives?

[@TwentyMinuteGuitarPlayer]

Awesome channel Jack, you are giving me hope with my jazz soloing! Any chance you could do a minor 2 5 1 approaches video too? Thanks again for everything!!

[@Taco67_99Fender]

I learned the 12 scale system from Jack Grassel which becomes basiclly a fingering system, which I employ continuously. When you demonstrate scales and arpeggios, I have NO IDEA, how you choose what finger to use or how you can remember where your hand is. To play anything you do, I HAVE to re-finger the lines. That being said, you sound EXCELLENT. I love your stuff !!!

[@sergelanger5492]

👌🙏Gracias😊

[@LydianSea]

Jack, your lesson explanations are top-notch and the content is always extremely useful. I bought your Truefire lesson "Shades of Blues" in Dec 2022 and I absolutely love it & will be buying the new "Jack Manual for Tasty Rhythm" soon. Everyone, please support Jack!!

[@sildz1027]

Thank you for this lesson!.. Hi everyone!. Does anyone here have Jody Fisher's book "soloing over changes" in pdf copy?. Thanks!!

[@Billywagner22]

So much valuable info in this lesson. You should have way more subscribers. You explain it in such an easy to digest way.

[@JackRuch]

I appreciate that!

[@paulchow2742]

Thanks

[@JackRuch]

Thank you!!!

[@SCgroove]

Love your stuff. Any chance of you doing one of these for the counterpart minor ii - V - i ?

[@portsideguitar1981]

Sooner or later every note on the neck is some extension of the chord being played 😅. Just have to resolve it, eh? Cool stuff Jack!

[@danig77]

I love these kinds of lessons! because you teach me a different way of doing things, from how you think as a guitarist. I am now with 2 5 1 connecting arpeggios, in sixteenth notes but I sound like arpeggios, I lack vocabulary. It would be interesting if you did an extended solo of 2 5 1 for your PATREONS 😁 and then you'll explain what you've done...this kind of stuff helps a lot. thanks a lot!

[@hetknn8600]

Do you consider yourself a jazz guitarist as well? Could you do an evening with 10 jazz standards?

[@lovetgha]

❤

[@sabbirhasan6934]

If i had the power, i would have given a million likes to this lesson, thank you.

[@sonnyblack71]

Wow I got a ES-335 just like that my father left to me he passed away in 2000 is that a 68?

[@jasonchu6891]

Amazing video Jack! Is there any reason why we can play "upper structure" arpeggios(i.e, 9th, 11th, degree, etc...) and they sound amazing over the changes? Also really interesting that you remove the root note of the arpeggio over each chord change! This is the first time I've ever heard anyone say this. Is there any explanation to why this works in music theory?

[@TheHerki666]

nice lesson! can you do it in minor? pls

[@petercameron8832]

This is good, way beyond me. Thanks anyway!

[@ericgarr3331]

what 335 is that? beautiful

[@ccbphoto]

Hey Jack…. I’d like to know if your lessons on Patreon come with standard notation. I play jazz ukulele that’s up a fourth…same notes as the guitar on the 5th fret. So guitar TAB isn’t useful.

[@JackRuch]

Yes there’s standard notation for everything

[@charlesharper7292]

Do you offer lessons for beginners? I haven't seen any teachers with a jazz style.

[@jazzplayer59]

Eloquent tutorial

[@rogerelton6791]

ITS ALWAYS NICE TO HERE YOU GUYS REFER TO ONE ANOTHER BY YOUR FIRSYT NAMES ,,,,NOT "HE"

[@guillll]

WHO GIVES A SHIT AND ALSO PLEASE DON'T SHOUT

[@brunolaire7826]

thank you for your videos, have you already watched these Chris Parks videos, a lot of material concerning Barry Harris, the master of "movement"... I'm talking to you about this because I've already heard you talk about "movement" in the music that you play...:) kzbin.info?search_query=that+i+learn+from+barris+harris

[@TheFeelButton]

144 ways to think about each note and 144 finger positions on a 24 fret 6 string

[@kaisriahi7198]

[@jeffgarrison7056]

Arpeggios are essential... without knowing the right notes to land on, it's more of a matter of hit n miss playing through scales... it often becomes far more miss than hit... and that's musical masturbation!!! HAHAHA
