How To Get A Great Jazz Guitar Tone

[@tomgayford9865]

Thanks very much guys, great lesson! I am just about to purchase my first hollow body guitar and amp after playing classical guitar for years, so these tips about how to get the right jazz sound out of the gear were perfectly timed for me.

A "jazz tone" is easy. Set everything at noon with no dirt. Set the guitar volume on 8 and tone on ten. Neck pickup. Thick strings. Flatwounds if possible. Start from there and adjust. The most important thing is to not play sloppy.

Get yourself a Roland JC and you are 75% there!!

Roland JC 120 and JC 40 are tough to find…but great jazz amps

Greg is super loud, and Ryan is super quiet. 🤦‍♂️

Pickups? Height? Action?

Body types?

Well, yes, along with picking techniques but that'll have to be for another video!
