How do get the pdf

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@lesliethomas2081 Thanks for the interest. The link is in the comment above that you commented on.

[@EasyThere]

Guitar Quackery mentioned he was trying to get you in on a video so I thought I'd come over here and take a peek. Bang another moment of synchronicity because I found this lesson which expands on something I have been working on myself. I don't know much about Jazz but I will learn. Those 7th chords add so much flavor to a composition even if you switch out one in a minor progression.

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@EasyThere Hi, glad to “meet” you! I hope you are finding everything useful to you.

[@jonbarnhart1947]

Excellent A+ video. This is $1000+ worth of lesson info explained very well. BTW this is for jazz players using Blues language to enhance things not Blues players intro to Jazz. If you know Blues already it will really help but getting into Jazz is a whole other journey

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@jonbarnhart1947 Thanks for watching and for your comment!

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@jonbarnhart1947 Admittedly, this is probably at least 2 years of college education. Especially combined with the PDF.

Thanks!

Good stuff, especially Level 4 and I like the hints of outside tones.

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@timbradley135 Hi Tim, thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. Much appreciated.

[@thebigleone1066]

Good stuff. Very informative.

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@thebigleone1066 I’m glad you find it helpful. I highly recommend getting the PDF. I go into much greater detail for each level, especially the last one: comping for yourself. Much easier to work these concepts into your playing that way. It not just a regurgitation of what was in the video. It goes much deeper.

[@thehousepainters3333]

Fantastic lesson! Thanks, man - very inspiring 🎸

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@thehousepainters3333 Hey, so glad you enjoyed the lesson! Hope to see you around here some more.

I loved your video, very informative. Thank you. Also I'm very interested in the thumb pick you're using and would like to know what it is.

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@ejn888 Thanks! I’m glad you found it helpful. I use Jim Dunlop Calico Large. I reshape them so they are actually usable. If you want to check out a video on it, check this out: Thumb pick: Everything changed for me when THIS happened! kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZTYqWecorWjqrc

Looking ahead and implying the upcoming changes... but on the upbeat.. i like it!

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@geneh.smalley-px4kr It’s a huge part of the jazz language. Thanks for checking it out. The PDF goes even deeper.

[@MaestroBlight]

Helpful.

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@MaestroBlight I’m glad!

[@MaestroBlight]

It would be hours long to break down exactly what you're doing with each stage but the cursory explanation about how the "wrong notes" are played makes me much more comfortable playing outside the scale. When I'm playing my best I'm playing a melody that I feel and when I look back at what I'm playing I'm wondering, "Crap, am I just playing a few wrong notes? Why does it still sound good to me? Am I kidding myself?!"

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@MaestroBlight No way! The “wrong notes” are the seasoning! So therefore are the correct notes… 😉

[@shroommcfanta2020]

You can tell it’s jazz just by looking at the hat..😂

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@shroommcfanta2020 Thanks!

[@johannes8383]

97%? nice touch. most people say 80%, 90%, 95%, 98% or 99%. 97% is new 😉 gets attention

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@johannes8383 Ha! Thanks. Hope you liked the video. Cheers!

[@abraxas1]

Sounds good but i dont have a 7 string guitar.....

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@abraxas1 I don’t know why you would think you need one. All of the written examples are for a regular 6-string. And mine doesn’t have a low string as the 7th, I have a high string.

[@zsoltbognar4156]

I'm sorry, but I don't think it's useful for someone that is trying to jazz up their blues. Theoretically yes, but as a blues player I just scratch my head trying to follow your advanced lines...

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@zsoltbognar4156 it’s not for everyone. But the PDF certainly will help you by explaining things and you can take the time to go through it. It does come with tab as well.

[@ekredel]

@@JazzRockswithAdamI am afraid that for someone who undestands all the terms you mention and never explain (arpeggios, enclosures, chromaticism, chords tones on the down beats etc.) this is too trivial and the licks are too basic. For someone who doesn’t know what you are talking about, this is way too complicated and overwhelming, and you don’t explain anything really. Break apart every lick you present at each level, explain what you used, where and why it works. Conn ect it to minor pentatonic “in the box” playing, if that is athe point of the video and lead the viewers in terms of gettting out of it. Sorry, this video is a miss IMHO.

[@JazzRockswithAdam]

@@ekredel I get more specific in the PDF. I’m sorry if you don’t like the video.

[@ekredel]

@@JazzRockswithAdam I just think you missed an opportunity to make a really good video here. 🤷🏻‍♂️. Still following and supporting though. 😊

[@ricardbennett6487]

His lines are very good, if you want to learn anything, first learn t play those lines correctly. The theory will come later little by little.
