      I don't know, I feel like 6 months is too little for those steps and 20 years is definitely too much for the last. I'd say it took me around three years to learn steps 1-6, at which point I was already improvising with multiple voices. Training that to be more natural and musical took maybe another three to four years.
      My frame of reference is 12 years of guitar.

    I started playing the guitar in 2002 for 5+ years and just learned songs from the internet initially until I learned enough of the fret to start tabbing out music myself. However I never really understood what I was doing. I stopped playing in 2008 and have only touched my guitar maybe 2-3 times since then, but I got back into playing just a week ago. My mind remembers the music I played but my fingers don't, and it's so frustrating, but now I started watching these videos and suddenly things that I've played before started making sense, and I finally got some understanding how I was able to tab music out before. It's so much clear now, but my fingers are still having trouble finding the correct strings and frets, but at least now it's a lot easier to remember what I knew before! So excited to relearn it all and learn new things again!!! Thank you, and other RUclipss, for making these videos to help others out with their music!😁😁😁

Pero todo el día escucho la llamada clásica, swing, standards de jazz y noto que se me pegan, se adhieren cosas pero sin método. Aspiro a que dentro de un par de años pueda pasar con soltura, sin velocidad pero con soltura, de la guitarra flamenca (ese es un mundo para dios@s) al bossa, de ahí al jazz y viceversa. Por puro divertimento personal. Podria escribir esto en inglés pero metería la pata. Gracias y me encanta tu forma de mostrarte

      A bunch of Maj/Min 7ths are relatable to the CAGED barre chords with one less finger and the B7 is in some beginner/intermediate strumming songs like Creep by STP. Try learning some Bill Withers, he goes into jazz chords without it being to complex. Same with a lot of funk, soul, and R&B. If this stage is intimidating but you want some introduction to 7th chords I recommend checking out Kerry '2 Smooth' Marshall and EricBlackmonMusic. They helped me feel comfy with 7ths and I'm just watching this video every once in a while and doing theory homework until it starts making sense lol.
      Now, b5 starts to get 'gimme a sec, I've heard of b5 as the blue note but I need to look for it' territory but we're working on it and that really is pretty tame to when you're looking at some of the chords used in jazz. Find an unsimplified tutorial for La Pompe and you'll see what I mean lol.
