Are they 57 “ individual” lines, Not 4 + lines transposed to 12 keys?

[@jazzlessonvideos]

That’s correct, all 304 pages with TAB and all 170 pages without TAB: www.jazzlessonvideos.com/downloads

You're a genius bro and you have opened newer, bigger and better doors for all guitarist and bassists as well who have been yearning to develop the much coveted bebop, jazz fusion with chromaticism lingo

[@jazzlessonvideos]

Thank you so much for the kind compliment Clarence! Much more bebop material to come so subscribe to channel to keep up to date on when we release it!

[@thormusique]

Thanks so much, this is brilliant! I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel. You make this all so clear and your style is so direct, no nonsense. I just downloaded your PDF and am very much looking forward to tucking into it. Cheers!

At a passing glance, it's impressive and shows where a person can go.

awesome playing

Great video and another pdf I will definitely purchase ! I have noticed you alternate pick a lot, with not so many slurs, and you seems to sweep only on downstrokes, which makes me wonder how you play descending arpeggios. I think some technical tips could be useful in future videos, especially for this kind of double time lines that are obviously very tricky to play. Chad and Jayden have made nice videos about jazz articulation, and I would be very interested by a similar video/pdf from a guitarist perspective. It could be the opportunity to discuss the more technical aspects of playing jazz guitar !

[@jazzlessonvideos]

Thanks so much for the suggestion, we hope to get to these topics in the near future!

[@bumbleshred]

@@jazzlessonvideos Amazing ! I can't wait for it ! 👍

Do all of the lines in the PDF include harmonic analysis like in this video?

[@esequielbass]

where can i download the book?

[@esequielbass]

Bruuutal!

[@mellodc]

Thanks so much for sharing these, Mr. Alexander. I've been a pretty strict alternate picker my whole life, and I can never muster the speed to play the lines at the tempo or with the machine gun attack that you and George Benson and Dan Wilson seem to generate so easily. Have you been able to help students change their picking mechanics? Hand position of course, but even harder to change for me is starting lines with upstrokes on strong beats, and the downward glides into upstrokes etc. Help!

Amazing video lesson. Which Amp is used in this video? Thanks for answer

[@jazzlessonvideos]

Is that a red Vox Soloist guitar hanging behind you ?

[@leonthomasmusic4362]

1:32

[@陳可瀚-c4c]

The number at 11:31 is wrong

[@obus4186]

Any suggestion on how to play faster or is it just a matter starting slow and building up. Is there something i should do technique wise with the hands/fingers?

I don’t have a strong background in jazz. Been more of a blues guy, just came across this video and checked out the page. Would you recommend your text lessons to a guitar player who has no jazz knowledge further than playing a 2-5-1 ?

[@patrickteiho1930]

Magnifique merci beaucoup très bon guitariste très bon Professeur Merci beaucoup.Peux-tu nous expliquer l’improvisation de Spain de Chick Corea.Merci beaucoup.

[@elpastor7155]

hi! do you have videos of exercises to practice speed on that kind of lines?

[@jazzlessonvideos]

Thanks for learning with us and for the suggestion! Subscribe to the channel for more videos like this releasing soon!

[@lewistaylor1701]

Whew. So the task is to learn the lines slowly then kick them up a notch until you get to your speed?

[@reuben-jamesgilbert1845]

Definitely the best approach for improving technique on tounging if you need that, but finger timing too. Just helps you internalise the line

[@jazzlessonvideos]

We always suggest taking material slow at first, especially when dealing with 16th-note lines. Happy shedding and thanks for watching!

[@samsonolasunkanmi4814]

At times it's hard for me to believe that all those calculations and analysis come within that small time Cecil played. So fast.

[@jazzlessonvideos]

Hi Samson, yes these lines are written beforehand and expertly demonstrated by Cecil. Definitely take it slow and use the wonderful "Playback Speed" features that KZbin has to offer to further dive into this material.

[@lukewestondev]

Practice methodically but play whatever comes out naturally

[@samsonolasunkanmi4814]

@@lukewestondev wow 😳 thank you so much

[@Hexspa]

@@lukewestondev dress classy, dance trashy

[@pyannaguy4361]

Uh, Yeah... I'll play that fast in my NEXT life. 🤣 I'm 73. I'll kick the breathing habit before my picking hand comes even close! But it's fun to watch! (for awhile...my eyes get tired going THAT fast!) 😂

[@jazzlessonvideos]

These double time lines are demonstrated by Cecil at an expert level, but it's always important to take it slow and use the wonderful "Playback Speed" features that KZbin has to offer to further dive into this material.
