    Rather than playing small group jazz, I've ended up as the guitarist in two big bands. I'd love to hear if you have any experiences or tips that would help those of us doing this. Rootless voicings are de rigeur, of course.

    I love your creative editing, man. Cracks me up every time, because your laid back style and attitude actually makes it a bigger surprise! Your videos are a kind of jazz in and of themselves in that way. Swingy, soft, yet surprising at the same time.

    Great as always Jens. For me be able to play (essentially) the same chord in the same position on different string sets has been important, as has being able to move the same chord up and down the neck.

    But I have a much simpler explanation for these techniques. It makes it easier for one to play while a little drunk or high and makes it easier on one's conscience if you miss a few notes here and there.
