| | Improvising a Song On Your Jazz Guitar | | 2007-12-15 00:34:29 | | 1) Know the genre you want to learn for improvisation.One of the best ways to find out the genre that appeals to you is by listening to a few styles (i.e. jazz, blues, rock, folk, country, pop, etc.). The ones that stick in your mind are the ones to start off with. Like with anything you learn, learning becomes easier when you're interested in it. As you listen to the various styles, one thing to keep in mind is that the blues genre relates to most all the other genres. For that reason, if you learn to improvise in the blues genre, it will ultimately end up helping you improvise across all the genres.2) Build up a foundation of licks and riffs.Successful players have built up a memorized library of licks and riffs. During their lessons, they have absorbed and practiced these licks from a variety of sources so that when it comes time to perform solo or lend an improvisation, they are ready to practice and apply what they have learned.

| Learning the Jazz Guitar Scales - Basic How-To's | | 2007-12-15 00:26:24 | | When learning to play jazz guitar, you'll have to master learning the scales. Most players are led to believe that all they need to do is learn how to finger the scale and that's where their learning ends. When it comes time to play solos and improvs, they get frustrated because they find it hard to just play. The real problem is not that playing an improvisation is hard or beyond their skill. The real problem is that they haven't learned to master the scales as they thought they had.Basically, there are five skills that need to be mastered because they set the foundation for your improvisation and solo play. If you don't master all five skills in your lessons, then you will have a difficult time doing the improvisation because you don't truly know the scale and as a result won't have a feel for the scale. The five skills are: ears, eyes, intellect, fingers and application. Let's see how they can work for us.How-to #1: Learn to hear the sound of the scale so that when you hear a | | By: Guitar Hero | | |

| | #2... Jazz Guitar Player Joe Pass | | 2007-09-02 17:51:09 | | Yesterday Charlie Christian was inducted into the ATOMIC Greatest Guitarists of All Time List at the #1 spot. #2 on the list we have another Jazz guitar player, the amazing:
Joe Pass
Joe Pass hands-down was the most incredibly skilled guitarist who ever lived. Even if you don't enjoy Jazz guitar, you can appreciate his mind-blowing melodic improvising. Not to be a jerk, but for those of you who think Yngwie Malmsteen or Michael Angelo Batio are amazing shredders, Joe Pass makes them look like 10-year-old girls.
If Pass were alive today, I can imagine him shredding in a way that would probably make some people's heads explode like in the movie Scanners. If there were ever an alien who dressed in a human costume any time throughout the course of history, it would have been the 2nd greatest guitarist of all time, Joe Pass.
Not only was Pass a freak of nature Jazz guitar player, he was one of the most influential guitarists, even influencing some of the most highly acclaime | | By: ATOMIC Guitarist | | |
