Bill Evans, Ed bickert and Lenny breau would enjoy this.
Thanks!!
Amazing tutorial, straight to the point and lots of great chords
Thank you! I wish more people would realize that too! 😁😉
Hey!!! I already use a lot of these, but now I have more!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!
@@JamesSeaberry Hey! Hope all is well. Thanks!
@@JazzRockswithAdam Yup! As long as my fingers still move, all is well. Thank you!!
Great content ! The right inspiration to keep pushing my duo project. Lovely Tele Jazz sound. Gonna grab my thinline T instantly.
Hi Daniel, I’m glad I could help you get inspired for some new sounds.
This lesson is of an amazing value. Thank you so much, instantly subscribed.
Hello Semyon, thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts on this. I appreciate it very much. Welcome!
This is brilliant, cheers!
Thanks for checking it out!
Love this lesson. Working on this right now.
Hey, Carl. Thanks for checking it out.
@@JazzRockswithAdam The challenge for me now is applying these voicings to other standards and seeing how interchangeable the shapes are. But it also increases the vocabulary of different voicings and ways to comp through a tune.
@@carlerickson6163 It’s almost like learning all over again, right? But yeah so much more options for chords.
@@JazzRockswithAdam Also, who's your backing band in this video? They're really, really tight! 🙂
@@carlerickson6163 Ha!!
You bought me here 3:15 with the ii V I quick tip.
It was a bit convoluted to understand logically since there wasn't a root, but then it made sence when I remembered that roots and 5ths tend to be omitted in jazz.
Personally tho, I would consider it an F b5 chord, since that's the root and its easier to visualise, so I'll just think of it as a sub. However, I will be remembering the principle when I want to analise a chord progression, since it's quite interesting how the same shape can have 2 different qualities, and I wanted to go into something like that, I just didn't know how to, or even why to. But I get it now
Thanks for the ideas, they are quite eye opening ( especially for someone who has for a long time tried to use bill Evans chords in my playing, it was like a nice moment of relating to a musician who enjoys Bill Evans like I do)
Have a good day
Thanks for checking out the video and for your comment. You have to sort of forget about what you likely learned in the past and thinking of the lowest note in the voicing being the Root. It is a an Fm7(b5) chord on it’s own, but start thinking of what ever the chord you’re applying it to. So if you’re superimposing this Fm7(b5) over a G7 chord, instead think of what each note is in relation to G being the root. So the voicing in the video would be this: F = b7, B = 3, E/D# = #5, Ab = the b9.
So now you get a resulting chord that is now G7(#9#5).
So when the bass player plays G the chord is in fact a G7(#9#5) not an Fm7(b5). This is how guitarist and pianists create chord sounds with less notes. And more importantly, less fingers. Hope that helps. Hope to see you around here some more in the future. Cheers!
Cool chords but if you're singing a song, who cares?
@@tombisson3186 You can still play them. Although if I were singing while playing I probably would choose easier chord shapes to grab.
Why premiering again? Never mind. Great lesson. To do all this, I just need to extend my life another 10 years and that's after I finish the October Challenge!
Hey, that's my job. Keeping you out of trouble! 😁
What is your technique to play fast single note runs using a thumbpick?
Please tell me I want to use thumbpick on electric guitar too but I can't find a good technique for single note runs...
What I do is downstroke with the thumb, upstroke with the index finger. Or a combination of using alternating upstrokes with the the index and middle fingers.
Sometimes I will play lines with the middle and ring fingers if it’s not too fast.
So basically Lenny Breau style?
Man... I guess it is just hard. I can't get this tech to sound smooth but i guess it's just hours of practise missing... 🙄
Thanks for telling me
What I found that got me there the quickest was learning Charlie Parker heads.
As the owner of a Barry Galbraith book I did recognise a lot of these chords. Ain't they great?
Subscribed.
Yes they are! And thanks.
Great content and well explained. Thank you Adam🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Bruce!
they aren't arthropods?
Not sure what you mean by that...
Great playing Adam! Can you tell me the guitar you are playing here and the pickup that it have? I’m thinking on getting a telecaster to play some jazz and wondering if have any thoughts on that matter? Any advice? I want a guitar that is easy to carry. Thank you for the help 😊
Hi Telmo. Thanks for watching. My Tele is a 2016 Custom Shop “Caballo Tono.” It is super light, (probably helps that it’s a thinline) and has a Gretch style Filterton humbucker in the neck position. It is easy to carry. I really like it!
Thank you for making this video. Just what I was looking for
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for leaving a comment.
Ed Bickert used some of these.
Tim, yes he did! I show some of these voicings in this video: Ed Bickert "Just Squeeze Me" Solo In Depth - OFF THE RECORD Ep.1

I was thinking the same thing :-)
I just take it to the extreme. Especially in my PDF lesson.
great video! thanks for the breakdown
Hey, you’re welcome. Thanks for checking it out.
Beautiful play and feel Adam.
Thanks!
All of your videos are great 👍🏼
Thanks Nicolos!
Super cool sounds! My challenge will be where to insert in the tune so as not to freak out my bandmates. 🤔
When you feel comfortable with these, you can pick appropriate tunes where the vibe matches, or simply use them to change colors when comping for different soloists.
@@JazzRockswithAdam Agree... and I am really looking forward to it because these sound so awesome!!
I can dig it!
Well laid out. 😎🤓
Thanks David. Hope to see you around some more!
It's strange and sad ( but true), that most guitarists have little interest in (or knowledge of) harmony, and are content to play a lifetime on the same few chords they learned in their first week of playing. It's a shame, because harmony is the syntax of music, a wonderland of motion, and colorful, beautiful, inspiring sounds. Kudos to you, for showing them the way, play on brother. . . . . . . .
Thank you for your comment. And I agree, for western music, and especially jazz, harmony and rhythm is sooooooo important. Thanks for stopping by and watching.
