16 JAZZ GUITAR LICKS VIDEO LESSON demo

[@swiftlessons]

One of the best guitar teachers on youtube, you have such a great, refreshing attitude. Thanks so much.

[@surfux]

I LOVE your presentation Rich! So many times when I'm surfing KZbin for lessons the folks that post them have shortcomings i.e. rambling on and on, bad microphone placement etc. You get right to the point and I can appreciate that. Thanks so Much!!

[@1majohnston]

Saw you jam in person at a conference I was at. You're one awesome player!! Thanks for sharing your tips with us

[@juanchito26]

Rich, I got your jazz licks 1-21, they are awesome and I am working on tricks to incorporate them into my playing, and i just got the 2-5-1 licks. I would love to see more of the jazz licks continuation, but I thank you for this great service. My playing is already seeing the fruits of your valuable lessons. Keep it up!!!

[@Bflatest]

THIS GUY IS AWESOME one of the best guitarist I have ever seen. You may not remember me but I saw you a few years in a row and the WORSHIP INSTITUTE CONFERENCES my name is Dino. I purchased a couple of packages of tab for jazz fingerstyle stuff very cool this was back in like 2002

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

Thanks for the nice comment. Hope the courses worked for you

[@AllKillA]

You're so right with the numbers...Every teacher should do that!!

[@Thequeen4lif3]

Best jazz guitar teacher I've seen on KZbin yet

[@Arriscraft]

this guy is the real deal , i have learned so much for the lessons and songs i got from him and the price is just so affordable

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

Thank you I appreciate your encouragement

[@nottwozero]

Very nice touch with the numbers on the fretboard.

[@phretbord]

Got it!! It's in there now and I'll use it when I can. It's a nice lick and was fun to learn as well. thx

[@tuttlearts]

Just what I was looking for. This is working for me over an E minor to A 7 change starting the lick from the 10th fret on the b string. not sure why. wish I knew a little more about the note relationships and why I can go from this feel back into a pentatonic and have it sound so good. Thank you kind sir. great lesson. Already hunting down more of your vids.

[@JB-xe1nm]

RICH! Look at this young jazzer.

[@SickFX1]

I bought these lessons, awesome, highley recommend them.

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

flyjoseph explained this lick pretty good. Another way to look at it is when you see Dminor play off the V of Dmin or A7 then to Dminor. There is also some A blues scale in the lick then an altered G7 finally resolving to C

[@SaundizzleProject]

For all the people who asked questions in the comments about this lick, its pretty simple. The lick is based around a ii - V - I progression in C major. The first eight notes are based around D minor, with the C# being a leading tone into the D, and and the Eb leading in to the next chord (G13). The next eight notes are based around G13 with a a couple non-chord tones here and there. The last note is an E, which is the third of a Cmaj chord. This whole lick is a C major scale with, and the chromatic notes are there simply to make the melody more smooth.

[@BobPattersonJazzGuitar]

I like the numbers on the fretboard! I need to put them on my Buscarino for my students.. great video! Bob

[@GoldenNakai17]

thanks for the licks! They are QUITE tasty and tons of fun to play. Gonna be practicing these ones for a long time to come!

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

The other 14 are available on DVD from the Guitar College website or can be downloaded from the 99centGuitarLessons website

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

Thank you for your kind words

[@youlino]

..thanks and salutes to all of you masters!

[@markkroos]

I think it might be a hofner, the design on the headstock looks like mine. Nice guitars!

[@polkzoo]

Very nice Rich. Great tone.....touch and feel.

[@lee95757]

Licks are great for learning how to play jazz guitar but they helped very little with improvisation. My question was where do licks come from and how do your make them up on the spot? Learning Bebop was the answer with things like enclosures, deflections, pivoting off the 3rd and 7th and chromatic approaches. Also learning how to apply the bebop scale and the use of hexatonics (6 note scales). And of course practicing the licks (although I didn't) and other things in all 6 positions and in all keys (playing up a 4th) with a metronome.

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

2-5-1s are the chords built off the root, second and fifth degrees of a scale. They are commonly used in jazz.. I have some 2-5-1 lessons on it on my 99centGuitarLessons website.

[@NoroArroyo]

A very basic progression in Jazz. Thinking on a major scale you would play the second, fifth and first degree chords like this: IIm7- V7-Imaj7. For example on C major it would be Dm7- G7-Cmaj7.

[@Maudit1972]

Bravo, continua così. Complimenti! Andrea.

[@thejohnofsteel]

you are better at teaching then my college jazz professors!

[@D1vid3By0]

@kikimbrown If you like that check out the Jason Becker Signature guitar. They aren't selling them atm but you can get the fretboard done like that. Looks cool!

[@darthmorbous]

[@GuitarAddiction]

[@7211098]

This is Doc Severson's Brother, from the Johnny Carson Show. If you look close you can see the resemblance.

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

That's my tune "The Wes Side Of Heaven" . thanks for asking

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

It's more like soloing around chords instead of one certain scale

[@tobaccorich]

Bloody Lovely I m getting started right away sir.

[@mwillh]

It took a few (more than a few, really) rewinds, but I got it - thank you

[@m0ney4me]

[@nemtall]

Love This lick . Thank You kindly .

[@natecorning]

how many years of playing did it take you to learn all the diferent chords/scales and how to solo over them? did you go to a music school?

[@syruptishuss]

Could you please post the rest of this great old lesson;or do I need to order the VHS cassette?

I really hope this guy sings as well because his voice is ultra cool. He would fit perfect in a mafia movie.

[@Brunototguitar]

where are the other 14 licks?

[@MuliSalami]

seriously, nice fret markers

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

Great!!

[@totalchaos7112]

i love the numbers

[@wazu]

Hey nice video. But where can i find the tabs to all these licks. The video is excruciatingly slow and the riff played fast is too fast to catch

[@MrSirijoejj]

อยากให้เขียนเป็นแทป( tab)

[@RsGhost1]

What scale does the lick come from? HArmonic minor?

[@MrDSchaller]

Sorry Mister Severson - about my answer to the video Licks 1 ...."Where is the f in your line?" You play it really, but you dont speak about the note F in your line. This is my misunderstanding. Your videos are amazing. I found it just 10 days bevor in You tube. I can learn a lod from your great Guitar Playing. It would be nice, if you can cancel my first answer- Thank you very much, sorry...Dolf Schaller

[@closetome]

very nice

[@CheapChampagne1]

It looked like you were the guitar like a bass, is that normal for jazz guitarists? I've seen a couple other who have done that to.

[@OccidentalHorizon]

What exactly do you mean by a 2 5 1 change? great video though!

[@Beenyad]

holy shit those are cool inlays

[@ElGbayRGX]

Hey thanks a lot !!!!!!!!!

[@jfalu80]

bravo!!

[@buddhistguitarist]

what scale are you using?

[@McMinnManiac]

?Was that fret 7, or fret nine, again?

[@TheJofrica]

For real, in the thumbnail I thought they were computer generated, then I started watching and I was like, whoa, it's really on there

[@davidtheguitarman]

man, i can't understand what frets are you pressing... i can't see the numbers XD

[@un-enlightened]

wow I never thought of it that way dont learn the frets learn finger movement. thanks

[@Peppe73it]

private lessons?

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

Skype lessons www.guitarcollege.net/1on1lessons.html

[@OthO67]

Jason Becker has a guitar line that looks like this one.

[@TheReighnart]

9753 that's the funniest thing. I've never seen a guitar with that on it. Haha.

[@zatoichiable]

I love to learn guitar jazz. I just dont where to start. chords and progressions scares me.

[@TheOddPlatypus]

This guy is a fucking master. Nice one dude!!

[@jucamogue]

hell yesss!

[@daradidam]

for impatient people, the licks start at 1:43.

[@alphadogstudio]

Are you related to Doc?

[@oeso]

damn I skipped all the introduction and landed on the first lick, replayed the lick about ten times to figure it out, and realized there is a slow version afterward.

[@RichSeversonGuitar]

No, wish I was.

[@MrUrech]

NOICE!!!

[@ceira7]

Is that his phone number on the guitar neck?

[@SonsOfThunder229]

who in the hell would give this a thumbs down

[@1959364]

chido men

[@JakeReichbart]

BillGates Brother!

[@TheMJQ]

@pavener you must burst your bubble too quick then

[@jakekvas]

A true jazz cat

[@MrDSchaller]

@Flingotravels Hi, your mail is not very nice, because it`s my fault about this note F. Rich play the note, but hi don`t speak about this F. So, it is very nice if you can cancel this bad words...look upstear my answer to Rich Severson. Thanks.

[@mjazzguitar]

I wish they had computers when I was young, I would have eaten this stuff up. I learned jazz chords and progressions but not really riffs.

[@daradidam]

i believe there's a difference between impatient as in "rushing all the notes as fast as you could" and impatient as in "for God's sake, shut up and play the music already".

[@s2p3r]

weird neck he must love calculus with the numbers and the integral f hole

[@MrDSchaller]

You have many faults in this lick 1! Where isi the f after the e (the fifth note in your line) and so one...? Sorry Passfriend Switzerland

[@Saxement]

Lol dude he gives the answer himself in the vid... a Hofner H5.

[@welcomejlc3]

Anyone who uses the word noggin is cool by me !
