You're such a legend. Thank you!

[@francesco0185]

God bless you pancho

[@rafaelcebriancuesta2034]

Congratulations Mr. Kohl. You are the best teacher of jazz. Your lessons are incomparably accurate, and easy to assimilate. Extremely clear and concise. Do not ever disappear from RUclips, I beg you!

[@daveydoodle1916]

Rafael Cebrian Cuesta He makes it fun

[@Hotsk]

FINALLY! Someone who ACTUALLY shows you how to go about it rather than just talking, talking, talking.... This is so helpful! Danke vielmals.

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

My way of teaching . . . Thanks

[@Isosceles1]

These are some of the best jazz guitar lessons on RUclips. Jazz teachers often give too much information and I overthink it and get frustrated. With these lessons you get a short description and the music speaks for itself.

[@hothempire]

This is a fantastic style... thank you 100x over for helping me train my ear and improve my melodic improvisation. Really enjoy how you've broken these down into pieces.

[@seanfitzpatrick7878]

I've checked out a large number of beginner Jazz lessons on RUclips and never before has a lesson been so efficient and easy to follow. No fluff, nothing extra to expand the lesson simply for the purpose of making them longer. Clear, concise and efficient. No obvious attempts to show prowess or technical ability. No unnecessary babble. This lesson is, dare I say, perfect. Thank you. I'm now a subscriber for as long as you provide lessons.

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks Sean, you are welcome, best regards from Mainz, Germany

[@shi1425]

thanks so much for posting all your vids... the way you step through a bunch of licks twice with your Wes Montgomery ect ii v vids is perfect for my level and it's opening my ears to jazz phrasing and playing... you're awesome

[@toniamarchesiello7508]

The most accurate and gifted jazz teacher on the web 👌 I also appreciate all the material I ordered on your website Achim👍 Grazie mille e a presto 👋

[@ThePanchomack]

Best lesson on RUclips! Taking step by step now ... Thanks so much for sharing !

[@moose1689]

[@tommac2122]

Thanks Mr Kohl, simply the best .

[@congxiu325]

Wow, what a cool tutorial, love this no bullshit style.

[@kellmerWF52]

Just bought the transcription to Blue Bossa, well worth the money, I've had a lot of hot shot jazz players as teachers, and none of them could break it down to an easy to learn lesson like you.

[@MarquishoD]

Thank you!! What a generosity, no talk, no eternal and selfish explanations, just play, slow first, fast after. What more we can ask for? Truth be told, even showing us how to play in such detailed way I will never play like you. You are a genius, your cleanness is shocking!!!... Almost perfect

[@jonyfanfan4126]

Can u play like him now?

[@MarquishoD]

@@jonyfanfan4126 of course I can't. What an answers!!! It would be boring just to get the right teacher to play break!!

[@andresortegaguitar]

Finally i find a channel to lear in a really clean way! merci

[@conartist267]

That’s awesome. I love your approach to teaching

[@thefirstvoiceUhear]

So I started this course literally this morning, I've been listening to your stuff for about three weeks, incredibly the way improvise changed dramatically during this first practice period, I'm in shock,I actually solo better today than I did yesterday, THANK YOU!!!, I NEEDED THIS, I can't wait to get the full course under my fingers, PEOPLE JUST BUY IT AND JUMP IN, ITS WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks! I'm happy to hear that, best regards from Germany

[@starcycle1]

[@AchimKohl-JazzGuitar]

Thanks Danny, you're welcome . . .

[@annyguitar]

This is sooo good! thank you so mucho for this material!

[@krileym]

Everybody, sub, like, comment and share! This dude is incredibly good and these lessons are extremely helpful, clear, informative, and fun; they are especially pure gold for someone like me, who has no idea how to read music (tried and failed/gave up) and can play scales/modes/arpeggios with relative ease without being able to do much of anything in the way of difficult chording or composing. Thanks Achim!!

[@tritonneptune3834]

Wow, amazing stuff man. Without even speaking a word you pretty much summed up improvisation for beginners in a couple of minutes.

[@marceauhumeau]

Very clear explanations !! Thanks !!

Hi Mehdi, I don't think that I'm the best jazz guitar player on RUclips, there are a lot of good players out there in the world. Thanks for your comment and all the best for your playing.
