I don't think I have ever seen a better HELPFUL and clear lesson ever ever ever. This is what every guitar player wants to learn, understand and digest. Huge respect for you Achim!

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks, best regards from Mainz, Germany

[@sidvicioux]

said the same thing, moments ago, two years after yours!!

[@SeanArmitageMusic]

As a long time player I really appreciate the no talking aspect. It's just easier to watch what you're doing and copy it.

[@bettybite3864]

Right!

[@bryantodd9187]

@@bettybite3864 Agreed!

[@leanderbunch1666]

I agree Sean no talking less distractions leaves you to simplify thing's.

[@leanderbunch1666]

But your sure need some technical skills lol 😆

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Hi folks, after nearly 1 million views of my Blue Bossa solo here on KZbin and so many questions "how you do that . . .", I decided to make a lesson to show you how to improvise over the chord progression. As always no talking, straight to point, no wasted time and with my step by step system. You will get the best results by using the additional tabs, neck diagrams and backing tracks available on my website. After working with this lesson you will definitely improvise more melodically with more connections to the comping chords. All the best for your playing and don't forget to practise !

[@NicoRubioGuitar]

Thank you so much!

Thanks for posting it.

[@ronydeprins6392]

Top lesson - beautifull sound and playing, very nice guitar, what kind of amplifier are you playing in this video Achim?

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks Rony, I don't use an amp for recordings, I play directly in my audio interface, you hear only the pure sound of the guitar with a little compressor, EQ and reverb.

[@danielpeters9129]

You are The best teacher in the world. You make difficult things so easy to do.

[@Yoursoulismine814]

2:40 I found this section incredibly useful to repeat over and over until I got the chords and the rhythm down. Thank you for this amazing tutorial!

[@MarcosJ-mq4lk]

Hands down(genuinely) this form of teaching stands out by a MILE!....fantastic and thank you!

[@mahmutyldz214]

I guess this is the right place for an old metal head to start jazz with.

[@H3llb0y19876]

Ha, and this is exactly me right now :-)

[@jai9587]

Saaame! I love metal and jazz

[@СозерцательМира-о3м]

Класс! молодец парень, без воды и прочей мути.....даже мне профану в этом деле разложил по полочкам все....и гармонику и пентатонику в различных вариантах. Потрясающе! Ничего кроме восхищения! Умница! Вот у кого надо учится некоторым преподавателям!

[@Stryngz21]

The best Blue boss’s guitar lesson I’ve every seen . Thank you. You’re an amazing instructor, musician and phenomenal with theory.

[@markbraxton1289]

Gotta be one of the best teachers on the internet by far, covers every angle there is and no need for one word,thanx bro

[@markmazzy5667]

This is incredible.... You make seemingly impossible guitar work possible. Thank you... Your tutorials are so helpful.

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks, best regards from Germany

[@stringbender57]

Your non-verbal teaching method is absolutely perfect! You stay on point and demonstrate exactly what the student needs to know and only what they need to know for the lesson. And in an easy way to understand and follow. So many instructors talk entirely too much! So much that the student can't focus on the point of the lesson. I don't need to hear 20 different ways to play a new chord I am just learning and 20 minutes of the instructor telling how easy it is to play. I think you get my point. Keep up the excellent teaching system you are using. I love it!

[@mtweaver1978]

I have been watching instructional videos on here for many years and I have to say, this is the best I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing your hard work.

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks, you're welcome !

[@karlstanley8264]

I spent a couple of years in music school learning jazz guitar 20 years ago and man alive I wish we had tutorials of this quality available to us at the time. Fantastic!

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks Karl, you are welcome . . .

[@TheGhostWhoWalks]

You are a great teacher. It's refreshing to to get quality content without all the waffle. Time is precious. Thanks

[@guitarman4242]

A gifted instructor if there ever was one. When playing lead, love the concept of outlining the cords slowly, then applying jazz feeling to them. Such a perfect way to learn. Thank you so much

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks, best regards from Germany

[@anniefarr4373]

Oh this is clean clear and completely serene for this very novice player. Like panning for treasure and finding the gold nugget Thank you

[@Mark2Roll]

i play bass...first time in my life...i understand the iimprovisation of this song...thanks Achim.

[@jacks-and-queens]

Great lesson, thank you very much for sharing... I came back to this tune after 11 years of Rock and Pop covers... what a nice musical approach to this classic tune :-) ❤

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks!!

[@michaelvogt-gitarre9096]

Hi Achim, best lesson ever and the other things are very pleasant. No advertise, no unnecessary gossip, no other eye catcher. Real great stuff!!!

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks, best regards from Germany

[@michaelvogt-gitarre9096]

Dicke Grüße aus Deutschland ;-)

[@lonniedobbins]

I love the way you teach. *100% a new student, or just to listen.*

[@bigd2829]

Guitar lessons I’ve watched that have no words can be confusing sometimes and leave you with questions but this one is beautifully designed, very easy, logical and straightforward. Thanks!!! Keep doing these!!

[@drsteviejasengnsangma8739]

Amazing lesson!!! no talking but only Jazz business Thanks for sharing this beautiful piece

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks! Best regards from Germany

[@grahamcharlton9704]

Totally brilliant! Chords, rhythm and a breakdown for improv. suggestions all in one video. As a jazz beginner, there's so much here that I can apply to other songs. Thank you.

[@gslondon]

Thank you for such a clear and useful series of instructional videos. I'm new to guitar and it's a minefield out there. Most lessons are geared towards rock music, and anything Jazz focused tends to be disjointed and no explanation to why. In this lesson alone, you just implied my missing links, how chord voicing fit, why I have to learn my modes like my alphabet, and many other mysteries and you have given my self tuition direction and purpose. Your playing is a joy to listen to and your voice is non existent, you speak louder by saying nothing and letting the lesson flow. I'm blown away. Thank you again.

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks, all the best from Germany

[@vKarl71]

Your videos are so well thought out - impeccably clear and organized. Thank You.

[@hartleygabolinscy3152]

Fantastico.. brilliant.. Thank you Achim for your time it is so much appreciated. 👍👍👍🌏👍👍👍

[@aleksandarradjenovic9045]

A brilliantly clear view from several tonic centers.Respect.

[@baranyiproduction]

Great lessen Achim!! First of all your concept of analysing, building up each “brick” and finally getting to a great result. Thank you.

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks! Keep on practicing, all the best from Germany

[@63north]

Best lesson I've seen so far! Thanks.

[@angelialvares]

just beautiful rephrasing....just loved listening to this.......and each note is so clear and distinct and magical..

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks, best regards from Germany

[@yixiguan6520]

I am so glad I found this video. It showed me how Jazz music is structured. It made the learning path seem much clearer. I am going to watch this video again and again in the next few weeks. Learn the chords, the arpeggio, and the jazz phrasing. Practice over and over. Thanks for the excellent video.

[@daveknow]

Great lesson. I've already looked into the other lessons and wish I could clone myself to get to many of them. I love this style of electric jazz Bossa Nova. Great tone by the way.

[@daveknow]

Now what we need is for KZbin/Google to add a looping feature to the already wonderful tempo adjustment.

[@ieltsvungtau]

Thank you for the lesson, Achim. You are amazing and such a huge jazz guitar influence on me

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

You're welcome, kind regards from Germany

[@iberico8174]
