[@frannyp46]

Great communication skills without excessive waffle. My short attention span thought I would never get through 46 minutes, but here I am loving every second of it.

[@JackGardiner]

This means a lot man! Thanks so much. Glad you’re enjoying it! 🙏

[@bonaqua123]

One of the best balanced virtuoso players today. Phrasing, feel and technique all combined into one smooth message. Never stop.

[@joedamore7653]

Totally agree!

[@JackGardiner]

Way too kind man! 💙 Thanks dude!

[@michael1]

@@JackGardiner Can you stand on one leg and close your eyes without falling over? If not then there are at least 3 better balanced guitar players and 1 flute player...

[@gitarmats]

In a world of heavily edited guitar videos, yours are a breath of fresh air, Jack. Rock on!

[@photoguy4212]

Thanks for leaving the mistakes. It's actually comforting in a weird way to know teachers aren't always perfect even though you're incredibly brilliant. I appreciate the humbleness. Amazing opening.

[@aaronengle9344]

I agree dude🤘🤘 please always do that it is a truly humbling experience when feeling at times discouraged in the universe of what seems to be perfect guitar players everywhere🤘 truly awesome and the upmost inspiring.. just wow😊

[@Desmond-ul7cw]

Jack is so slick I didn't even hear any mistakes. A lesson on how to make mistakes sound intentional and so stupid good I can't even wrap my tiny, wee brain around it.

[@Desmond-ul7cw]

@@aaronengle9344 Don't get discouraged brother player! Just keep playing and don't compete...just EXPRESS yourself cuz you're awesome!

[@MichaelWinter-ss6lx]

Perfection is not to make no mistakes, but to react to a mistake in such a manner, that nobody sees it as such. It is true, that nobody is perfect. 🚀🏴‍☠️🎸

Pretty much

[@Jacob_A_OBrien]

Your rhythmic section doesn't sound silly at all. That was great!

[@JackGardiner]

Haha thanks man! Some great meme potential though - I’m sure 😅💙

[@Thearcherfl]

It’s absolutely crazy watching your right hand. Of course your picking is amazing, but the way you are constantly adjusting pickups so seamlessly is absolutely mind blowing. Thanks for all of your amazing content!

[@Stephen_Lafferty]

I love how Jack's virtuosity with the guitar is balanced by his clear and present understanding of what can be used in each moment, and his ability to break it down to straightforward explanations! Even the rhythmic singing phrases at the start is enough for a semester of study, without involving triads or pentatonics!

[@hywelbennett8580]

So ridiculously inspiring. Had the best evening of improvising after watching this. Thanks, Jack!

[@JackGardiner]

Legend! This inspires me to read this Hywel! 🙏

[@davidmultimedia2024]

JACK! What you said at 15:10 about being able to see intervals like the third but in relation to a higher/lower pitched root.. I just realized I actually never ''visualized'' that and I definitely see how important that is! I do play those notes already when improvising, but not because I think of them as what each of them actually are precisely, but more because I know the sound and I know it's part of the scale... but I'm not always (if ever) ''aware'' of what interval it actually is while i'm playing. If you'd ask me to find it, I would be able to relatively quickly, but it would take me at least a few seconds because I would have to first find the root from an octave below/above and then I'd know where the third is. This masterclass is BRILLIANT, and you're such a good teacher! Every single time I watch one of your guitar lesson videos, I find at least one particular point that I always knew was important but always neglected for some reasons.. and everytime it inspires me to work on that. When you're a bit depressed guitar-wise and struggling with some stuff, this kind of video is like a MASSIVE oxygen tank. I'm definitely considering subscribing to MUSICBRO and see where it leads me!

[@sound_sprut4792]

Jack is one of the true modern guitar improvisators imho. Such knowledge of licks, phrases, "question and answer", the importance of silence and pauses, time and feel etc. Absolutely outstanding)

[@DaveDickens]

Thank you Jack, appreciate you taking the time to walk through these great ideas for improvisation. Cheers Dave

[@JackGardiner]

Thanks Dave! 🙏

[@salsacoach8469]

Probably one of the best course (yes because he has many others that also are awesome🎉) and best teacher I ever had !!! Cheers my Jack. T.

[@JackGardiner]

💙🙏 Thanks T!

[@gohamm8629]

Thank you for this! I'm still stuck in that no-man's-land of "knowing the vocabulary" but "not being able to have a conversation" when it comes to improving. I know the notes, I know the scales, but I have no phrases. This definitely helped!!

[@andreimclive]

This is INCREDIBLY good stuff. Thank you.

[@philam1307]

Man, your way of teaching is so relatable. Thanks.

[@theandiller]

These videos are gold. Thank you, Sir! What a time to be alive.

[@dima_saur]

This is amazing, super clear method. Excited to check out your course

[@holdthismix]

As someone who is finally getting to grips with Konnakol, I’ll echo what others have said. The rhythmic exercises are definitely not silly. Thank you very much for this fantastic upload.

[@JackGardiner]

That’s something I would love to study if I can find the time! Thanks man - legend! 💙

[@jonnydubai]

This is probably one of the best educational vids on this platform

[@Nameless742]

I'm just now finding my guitar voice finally and found your experiences resonate with mine. Now I'm playing along to songs I've never even heard before.

[@richardchristensen1768]

Man! Where have you been all my guitar lesson needing life! I've been improvising for years now and have been extremely happy most recently with my phrasing,feel and speed and know all of what your explaining but mainly subconsciously Now I am kicking at the gate to move to the next level so I did some more of my typical KZbin searching for some kind of eureka breakthrough lessons and like divine intervention I find you and your brilliant teachings THANK YOU!!! Youre amazing on all levels As a player and as a teacher So good that it makes me want to unsubscribe to almost all of the other channels that teach stuff and devote my undivided attention right here!!!!! I am very excited about this in case you didn't notice!!!!!!🤣 CRAZY BRILLIANT!

[@bluecollarshred6311]

Man, I've been playing for three decades,, and this video was exactly what I needed this morning to help get me out of a creative rut. You're making some of the best guitar content out there.

[@Tamarind1]

Found your video shared by the virtuoso in my country. I have been struggling with improvisation for a year. Your video is extremely on point and organized. I swear I will make this as my primary source when it comes to improvisation. Your phrases and licks are very tempting to be stolen. 😂 why did i just find your channel. T T Jack, you are the best, seriously. Thank you! 🎉

[@xabiguitar]

I don't know why but I feel like I clarify a lot of things in my mind when I see you teaching. You explain things in a way I sinc with them easily. Also "Modern Fusion Improv 3" has helped me a lot on Melodic minor all over the fretboard. Thanks man!

[@DesignCourse]

Keep hustling, bud! I'm excited to launch a new chan on guitar myself. Super excited, though I will NOT be as good as you 😅

Hey Jack. Lately been watching your older videos and making notes on stuff I want to try out and learn. Good stuff. Could you make a video about books to learn from or what kind of sheet music has given inspiration or licks to check out?

You legend! Thanks Josiah! 💙🙏

[@GuyLuchenbill]

Idk why this video out of the thousands I've watched trying to sound more musical and not so "mechanical (from all the theory bs)" but the beginning where you just used claps and noise really got through to me. I believe i just had the biggest breakthrough I'll ever have, somehow the scales and patterns just became more of a second or third thought and trying to be melodic is now the only thing I'm focused on and... wow... I can't believe it... 😂😂

[@hesdabear]

Wow, very glad I found this channel today. Great content, can't wait to watch more

[@harrybee3093]

You are such an inspiration… phenomenal.

[@simonsilvia6864]

Hey Jack! I’ve got a question :) When you are improvising, do you think in terms of intervallic functions, or do you think of actual chord names? Do non-diatonic chords give you a brand new set of intervals or do you alter your parent scale to fit the newly introduced chord? (I know it’s the same set of notes I’m curious about the visualization behind it) Thanks again for everything you do for this community! Best channel on here AND you’re a good teacher 😉
