Description

In this tutorial we'll learn some basic elements of jazz lead guitar. We'll play some lines that demonstrate jazz vocabulary over a common major key chord progression. One of the central elements of jazz guitar soloing is playing the changes. This means targeting certain notes within a scale that outline each chord in the progression. When playing the changes, you can emphasize chord tones and then embellish by using other scalar and chromatic notes.
