80/20 Jazz Guitar

80/20 Jazz Guitar

The 80/20 Principle says that 80% of the the results come from 20% of the effort. Itâ€™s seen throughout life â€“ from roads to sports to customers to music. Thereâ€™s a myth that it takes hours and hours and hours to learn jazz. Part of that is true â€“ it does take hours and hours to master the music. BUT you can start sounding like an authentic jazz guitarist quickly by focusing on the 20% of things that make the most difference. Thatâ€™s where 80/20 Jazz Guitar comes in! This book focuses on the 20 things (in the spirit of the 20%) that will move the needle in your practice time. I have a family, a job, and other responsibilities. I understand that itâ€™s unrealistic for someone in that situation to spend 4 hours a day practicing so finding the things that make the biggest difference in your practice time is extremely important. Youâ€™ll learn 20 Jazz Guitar Licks from the masters (Wes, Pat Martino, Jim Hall, Scofield, etc) 20 Classic Jazz Rhythms 20 Theory Topics that you need to know 20 Exercises to get your improvisation chops in shape 20 Creative Limiting exercises 20 Suggested books, recordings, solos to transcribe, and tunes to learn Youâ€™ll Get Bonuses as well In addition to the 100+ page PDF 80/20 Jazz Guitar Book 30 Audio Examples of licks and exercises 8 Backing Tracks 3 Printable PDFs of chord and scale fingerings The key to this system is focus on the 20% of things that ACTUALLY MATTER when learning jazz guitar; the things that will get you to sound like an authentic jazz guitarist quickly; and waiting on things that will clutter up your time and ultimately be confusing. Tons of scales? Nope. Drop 2s and 3s - nope, well not the confusing part at least. Modes - no way. Crazy, made up names for things that are easily explained with â€˜flat this note or raise this noteâ€™? Nope! Itâ€™s way simpler! Most of the greats from jazzâ€™s bebop and post bop eras played music from the soul and heart, not from the brain. Sure they studied and knew their stuff, but it was a much more ORGANIC process for them. Go back to that approach - organically learning the things that matter when they matter, and leave the rest alone for now.
