This is the best Jazz comping lesson I have ever seen in KZbin.

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

Thanks so much. ❤

[@wittvonwitt4403]

She seriously has one of the best jazz guitar channels on KZbin if not the best

[@christiangiraldo3025]

davidnayir agreed she is amazin

[@MoaEdmundsGuevara]

I also agree, clear information!!!

[@wjlatch]

I started guitar in ‘65. Played pop/rock (garage/party) band with some passion ‘70-‘90. Took a few decades off. Have started playing again in the last few years in a oldies band. I was doing pretty well teaching more than learning from my band mates. At 70 I thought I would like to move into jazz/blues. I have been following you and others. It’s been following you for awhile. I have purchased a package.

[@wjlatch]

Sorry for the premature ending of previous msg. I’m having a hard time finding a jumpstart in to jazz. I clearly understand II V 1 or any other pattern but not familiar with jazz phrasing. I’m picking up a bit but… I like you style (and small hands😀 like mine) and large library of lessons. It’s large but I can’t find a “beginning” for me. I do need to have starting point (lesson) and progression of development. I can imagine there are others in my situation. I have purchased a package from you but there are places that assume I know more and places that are more basic than I need. Is I possible to put your vast library of lessons in order? Hit and miss utube selections are frustrating. Bill

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

Hi William, there is no order on KZbin, that's what courses are for. I'm working on one. I have a jazz phrasing lesson here on youtube. Just type " jazz phrasing guitarversum" into the youtube search box. Other than that, I give Skype lessons. If you're interested just contact me to the email given in my channel info, or go to guitarversum.com and look for contact.

[@flockiline]

You have a real sense of teaching, Sandra. I appreciate your lesson very much. Coming from blues guitar I felt pretty lost how to get started with Jazz guitar. I looked around everywhere but it didn’t « click » for me. But with your lesson you give me a helpful framework for a very good start: the four comping rhythms, how to combine them, a few beautiful Jazz guitar chords and how to play over the A section of Autumn Leaves. And your explanations are so useful. I arrived to start. Thank you so much.

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

That's really cool! And you have the right approach 👍

[@BHAKTIBROPHY]

This is *so* interesting! The insight regarding keeping beats 2 & 4 on the low-down so the high hats right through the mix is something I would not have thought about. So thank you! What a great lesson. Many great ideas to incorporate: jazz comping is much different than playing rhythm guitar in a classic rock setting. I'm grateful you explained all of the important things we need to keep in mind. And I love the syncopation. That really makes what you played more interesting than just playing the same rhythm throughout. Thank you!

Yes, Jay Roberts is a well known guitarist/ instructor and he won the Jimmy Hendrix competition here in Seattle. Doug, his brother was the drummer for their metal band in the 80's called Koda Kahn. I think that is spelling. I also wanted to thank you for your amazing videos, I just had my first jazz lesson that I am taking as a part of my associates in music and you have opened the brain to the structure and ideas of jazz music.

[@jonasmaurerguitar]

Endlich redet mal jemand über Begleitung :D Hat mir sehr geholfen!

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

Das freie mich sehr. Ich hab mir das Gleiche gedacht. Immer Solo, Chords, aber niemand zeigt Rhythmik. Wobei die Jazzrhythmik auch wirklich sehr schwer vermittelbar ist. Daher rate ich dir unbedingt viel hören! Und zwar nicht nur Gitarre. Bewusstes Hören funktioniert so: Hör mal in einem Song nur auf das Klavier. Versuche die Rhythmik nachzusingen oder zu klopfen. Im nächsten Durchgang konzentruere dich auf den Bass. Dann Drums etc. Dieser Tip von einem Kollegen anno dazumal hat mich so unglaubluch weitergebracht. Ich habe begonnen das Rhythmusfundament des Jazz zu begreifen und habe es dann immitiert und danach analysiert und notiert. Die letzten zwei Punkte musst du als Nicht Lehrer nicht unbedingt machen. Viel Erfolg!

Sandra thank you so much I love all your videos you’re such a good teacher two quick questions if I may. For your right-hand middle and ring finger are they only playing the strings where we are holding down a note or are we including the open strings as well? I guess it depends on whether the open string is a chord tone? Also, does this hybrid picking style work with chord inversions where the root is not on one of the bass strings? Thank you so much

[@GuitarversumSandraSherman]

No open strings. Yes, sure hybrid picking works for everything. Doesn't have anything to do with what voicing you play.
