Probably listening to jazz as well. Its really hard to talk a language you've never heard. You may get the scales, chords and arpeggios but wont understand how to combine them into jazz phrases.
RUclips is very overwhelming when it comes to “How to Jazz”. Your videos always focus on the foundations, which every house is built. Keep teaching and I’ll keep learning 🙌🙌
40 years ago a drummer I had befriended invited me to a jazz fusion jam. I was so lost I could barely play a note! This lesson makes sense even to my 1-4-5 entrenched mind.
This material is exactly what I’ve been attempting to learn for years. Hopefully the scale exercise progression you showed will finally get me there. Also nice to see a video that doesn’t go that far over my head. I’m decent with theory intellectually, but have yet to fully connect that knowledge to the fretboard.
All other beginner jazz guitar youtube videos overwhelmed me, this makes everything seem so in grasp and step-wise. I will come back here time and time again. Thank you.
Easily one of the best guitar tutorials I've ever seen! Everything you need to get started in one place, all explained clearly and simply. You should sell this teaching technique to the thousands of so-called guitar teachers who have no clue how to do it (and are often pretty average guitarists too). Thank you Jens!
I agree with " best video yet" ! So much here! These ideas, I've arrived at myself after many years. We have to take a few wrong turns along the way. What am I missing? If you honestly listen to your own playing, along with feedback from players better than you. Making mistakes can be a great learning experience, if you are willing to admit it. Great work, Jens. Thanks so much.
One of your best here Jens. Very clear and plenty of practical sense - and its not flat out and chockfull..... so a slow brain like mine can tie things together. Very helpful. We are continually told to get foundations solid and "right" but in fact not that many teachers do that - they can't resist showing us that they are way better than us. Actually - we know that !! Tis why we're here... so this material you present is a genuine helping hand. Thanks.
I agree. I didn't start with any theoretical foundation, but learning rapidly as needed. Kind of knowing the arp.'s, the scales, the triads, but struggling to get music out of it. The shell chord part with the 7'th was really helpful to pull everything together. Jens couldn't have picked better examples to play.
Very helpful Jens - thank you. It's also really important to play the songs you like, and play solos with the melody in your mind to get the best sound.
Excellent description of the shell voicings, Jens! This lesson really removes some of the confusion and difficulty about learning jazz guitar ❤ Thanks so much!
Great advise, Jens. After playing years of pop and rock, my interest has schifted to more jazzy inspired music. Even theory has caught my interest as I want to know what I'm playing and when to play it . Playing over the chord changes is very satisfying to play. Keep up the good work and Thank you for sharing.
Spectacular information presented here, in the most easily understood manner possible. Thank you Jens. I've been a long--time subscriber and appreciate the invaluable information which you impart here for free. Cheers!
Another great video for us aspiring jazz guitar enthusiasts! It is so rich in information I have to slow down your video to 75%. 🙂 Could you recommend a course or book that carries forward the information in this video and that includes exercises and suggested backing tracks? I always appreciate your perspective and the music theory, history lessons, and what to avoid.
Thank you! I would check out the Jazz Guitar Roadmap if you want to get some stuff figured out and internalized. There's a link in the video description
I'm self-taught. Surely it has an advantage but I can't tell what it is and if I'd learned this early I'd surely be way ahead of where I am today. Jens is a great teacher.
Dankjewel! Ik ga dit ter aanvulling oefenen naast de 12 most important voicings les van je die ik stap voor stap doorneem. Ik ben de gaten in mijn kennis aan het opvullen en ben helemaal weer bij de basis begonnen. Er is zo veel op RUclips maar ik focus me nu op de voicings en de 'methode' van tom quale wat ook al ontzettend heeft geholpen.
Major scale has always felt better to my fingers than pentatonic, which for me almost always turns into a relative minor scale when improvising. I think I could hear how it’s the way we move through the major scale that distinguishes the progression of notes as jazz. I see it sort of like the ocean tide that ebbs and flows regardless of whether the tide is going in or out.
I am not sure I see the point in doing that, I think Danish is the language of the 3 that I have taught the least in. Why would that be more authentic?
Great lesson Jens! I always thought the three most important scales in jazz were Major, Dorian, and Mixolydian..Jamey Aebersold pushed these 3 in his play along books. What are your thoughts? Also, can you do a more in depth video on the 3 scales, Major, Harmonic, and Melodic?
Modes are not the answer. I have videos on those 3 scales, it's just not in one video since each is a fairly big topic. maybe start here: ruclips.net/video/Gbn8bt6cMHI/видео.html
Excellent video, thanks for sharing! I'm wondering though, how do you know when you've got the scale down well enough (third intervals, triads and arpegios) and when should you move to other exercises?
Yes. 100% of the top of my lungs yell volume YES. The thing that kills the drive to learn the most is not lacking study material or advice but not knowing whats "the path" what works and why it works and how to implement it. Nothing is more frustrating than being self taught and go out on a limb with something you think will work but finding later down the road you just wasted time when there was a much more streamlined and simple approach. Simple but not easy is what wins the race. Not strange detours, which abound in the online guitar teaching world
To be honest, as a guitarist, I can tell from the very first notes you play whether or not you've listened to bebop. And I'm sorry to say that depending on your musical experience, you'll play what’s in your head, which is essentially the melodic lines you've enjoyed... or not. A musician who only listens to rock and pentatonic scales will NEVER be able to improvise bebop because their mental structure always reverts to that of a simplified blues. No matter how many theoretical or harmonic tips they follow, their ear and musical experience will be almost insurmountable barriers in this case. When Lee Morgan asked his fellow musicians to play "beautiful" notes or blue notes, that's what he meant. Personally, I listen to Billy Bean and Bill Evans all day, and it's clear that the pleasure I get from listening is the main driving force behind my playing, much more than theoretical advice...
I have often wondered if the total of all the "Do this every day" "do these 5 exercises every day" "do this for 10 minutes every day" etc wpuld add up to more than 24 hours :)😬
Jens, why are for you the 3 scales major, melodic minor, and harmonic minor, and not the natural minor instead of the major? Just a permutation of the same scale, right?
@@JensLarsen Agree there, but... isn't it just a matter of convention/preference that we want the I to be the tonal center? When Holdsworth is explaining how he thinks of scales he's saying that he doesn't concern himself with modes. If you then see how he looks at the C major scale, he sees it as a D minor with a flattened sixth, so effectually as a minor scale, and not major. So a II-V-I on a major scale is the same as a IV-VII-III on a natural minor scale. Yes, it doesn't resolve to the I, but that is convention as the chords and harmonic intervals are the same. Just the numbering is different... (I know, it's more a philosophical look at it -- sorry😉)
@@mlaporte74 No, it is a matter of how you hear it, not just a choice. You can't just try to use theory to ignore your ears (or at least I would not advice you to do that).
@@JensLarsen I hear you 😉. And you are right. Theory is one, but music is hearing and feeling. Yet looking at the modes of the major scale they are more minor than major. So I guess it all comes down to where we hear the tonal center, right?
Sal Salvador’s book has all these exercises that are VERY Useful & used as riffs. You’d know JENS!! It didn’t have tab in it, so lots of dudes would have avoided it. It was my ‘Bible’ for years. It’s really beaten up now!! How would you read a lead sheet if you didn’t know ? These guys are the GREATEST MUSOS. They’ve since re-released it with tab. 🙄 lt’s just my opinion, but you should be able to READ MUSIC. In doing that, you get so much more from reading. And why does everyone always refer to Joe Pass? There’s heaps of other jazz greats. Although, l had a brilliant start in jazz ( & classical). My DAD💔 had a jazz club when he was 17. ( no trad, no ‘3rd stream’; ). DADS💔brother, was into trad big time. When DAD💔& l listened to it ( 24/7) my Uncle Harry DADS💔brother was the trad lover. I remember him getting up & walking out back to his room; he used to say to us, ‘ How can you listen to that crap? They all sound like they’re playing in different rooms! ‘’ 🤣🤣🤣 So, you’d get music blaring out with 2 different styles. So funny to hear & see. Both had a wit equal to Groucho Marx; which thankfully l got from them along with my big brother. ( who isn’t into jazz). FUN TIMES!! I miss my DAD💔soooo much. He was my best friend. 😔 He was never a muso; when l asked why, he said he didn’t want to know how it was done. Understandable. He taught me so much of jazz history. Sorry for the novella! Have a good one. 👊🏾😃🎸🎹✨
You really love appragios. I use them as well but not a lot. When you use appragios too often during a song it becomes very robotic like. This is why I choose Robben Ford over most all guitarists. He doesn't play 39 notes per second, he uses many different technics which creates a tasteful sounding solo. Of course it took him years to establish such an approach but his approach is very easy to listen to. I am about to create a video which will be very controversial because I am going to explain something about scales, modes, appragios, etc. that I have never heard anyone say. It is something that has been on my mind for a long time but I just struggle to figure out how to explain it.
Arpeggios are only as robotic as the people playing them, but it is fine if you don't like them. Same goes for Robben Ford, that you consider him tasteful doesn't mean that everybody thinks the same.
The one scale is one pattern shifted up or down the neck to correspond to one of the 12 keys possible on the instrument. The pattern covers the whole neck. The position involves a particular part of the pattern. Knowing the scale in all positions reveals a working knowledge of the scale pattern on the instrument. This takes time. But then shifting the pattern up or down to accomodate the key is child's play compared with negotiating key changes on say, the sax, where you encounter 12 unique finger patterns that must be known well to run keys.

As a jazz beginner this video is 100% useful and worthy to follow, thanks so much Jens!
Glad it was helpful!
Jens, adding subtitles (not auto generated) to your lesson is a game changer (for my personal purpose). Thank you very much.
Great! Glad that is useful 🙂
And this is why learning simple chords was the key for me. After learning the chords, the scales just seem to arrive much more intuitively.
I agree with " best video yet" !
So much here! These ideas, I've arrived at myself after many years.
We have to take a few wrong turns along the way. What am I missing?
If you honestly listen to your own playing, along with feedback from players better than you.
Making mistakes can be a great learning experience, if you are willing to admit it.
Great work, Jens. Thanks so much.

As a former bass player, I'm pleased that Shell voicings leave out the 5th. Bass players are jealous about their 5ths! 😊

Asking for authenticity to the most, would you consider doing a whole video in danish? Would be great as a special one
I am not sure I see the point in doing that, I think Danish is the language of the 3 that I have taught the least in.
Why would that be more authentic?

When it is easy to play in any key and position? But once you have it in your system then it doesn't take more than a minute to play
