Pentatonic hack - flat the 5th of a min pentatonic and you have a great scale for min7b5, alt chords and maj7#11 chords!
Over Gm7b5 - C7 - FMaj7, i'm using Gm7b5 pentatonic, Bbm7b5 pentatonic and Bmin7b5 pentatonic.
Comment and let me know what you think!

Blues scale Hack! Over C7 to FMaj7, use Bb and A blues scales!
Over a C7 to FMaj7 chord, you can get all the juice notes by using a Bb Blues scale over the C7 and an A Blues scale over the FMaj7.
This gives you a C7b9#9#5 and FMaj7, easy-peasy!

Sweet, George Benson Hexatonic lick
This is a sweet line, easy to play and based on a D Min hexatonic scale.
D E F G A C
Benson uses this hexatonic scale all the time and it's a really sweet way to incorporate hexatonic scales into your playing.

Hey Jack... love it. Thanks for all the posts, I'll start checking out...
I watch 1st vid. picking style demos on 4 on 6.
So #1 rest stroke...least favorite, difficult to hear shape in lines....
#2 Free... like it with the sweeps , did seem to get sloppy
#3 Likes the sound ... better accented shapes
#4 loose grip... yea love the sound on the edge of exciting
Of course always love all your playing and post.... hope things are in good directions

McCoy Tyner, 4th+5th (quartal) voicings over Giant Steps
This is a breakout of a larger lesson i'm releasing on wednesday but I felt it worthwhile enough to make it a separate lesson.
This is an example of 4th+5th voicings and in this video, I'm going to show you how to use them over the melody to Giant Steps.
Look for a more detailed lesson and explanation in tomorrow's drop.

Essential string muting technique for jazz guitarists
This is something I never hear discussed about jazz guitar. Through all my studies with Dennis Sandole, Pat Martino, Howard Roberts, Joe Pass, Barney Kessel, Herb Ellis, not one of them mentioned this.
And I wish they had. Because it's a fundamental part of a jazz guitarists weaponry - as it were.
Check out this short video for some examples.

Charlie Parker, Multi-position 2-5-1 lick in G
This is a 2-5-1 (am7-d7-Gmaj7) charlie parker lick that's really exciting to learn and to play. In order to play bebop on guitar, it's necessary to learn to play over a wide area of the fingerboard and not just stay in a single caged position. The phrasing of saxophone lines and natural sounding bop lines demand this. (Although it's still a great idea to learn every line starting from every note and every string - as Dennis Sandole taught)

Hey Jack: From the videos I've watched you are a fine player and a natural educator. The two don't always mix.
Well done.
