      Are they 57 “ individual” lines, Not 4 + lines transposed to 12 keys?

      That’s correct, all 304 pages with TAB and all 170 pages without TAB: www.jazzlessonvideos.com/downloads

    You're a genius bro and you have opened newer, bigger and better doors for all guitarist and bassists as well who have been yearning to develop the much coveted bebop, jazz fusion with chromaticism lingo

    Great video and another pdf I will definitely purchase ! I have noticed you alternate pick a lot, with not so many slurs, and you seems to sweep only on downstrokes, which makes me wonder how you play descending arpeggios. I think some technical tips could be useful in future videos, especially for this kind of double time lines that are obviously very tricky to play. Chad and Jayden have made nice videos about jazz articulation, and I would be very interested by a similar video/pdf from a guitarist perspective. It could be the opportunity to discuss the more technical aspects of playing jazz guitar !

    Thanks so much for sharing these, Mr. Alexander. I've been a pretty strict alternate picker my whole life, and I can never muster the speed to play the lines at the tempo or with the machine gun attack that you and George Benson and Dan Wilson seem to generate so easily. Have you been able to help students change their picking mechanics? Hand position of course, but even harder to change for me is starting lines with upstrokes on strong beats, and the downward glides into upstrokes etc. Help!

    Uh, Yeah... I'll play that fast in my NEXT life. 🤣 I'm 73. I'll kick the breathing habit before my picking hand comes even close! But it's fun to watch! (for awhile...my eyes get tired going THAT fast!) 😂

      These double time lines are demonstrated by Cecil at an expert level, but it's always important to take it slow and use the wonderful "Playback Speed" features that RUclips has to offer to further dive into this material.

      Definitely the best approach for improving technique on tounging if you need that, but finger timing too. Just helps you internalise the line

      We always suggest taking material slow at first, especially when dealing with 16th-note lines. Happy shedding and thanks for watching!
