Imagine playing the blues like your favorite jazz guitarists -
without sounding awkward, playing the same licks again and again and running out of ideas...
- Have you tried playing blues in a jazzier way but still get stuck?
- Do you learn from YouTube videos but it all seems to not make sense?
- Do you ever feel everything is great when you practice but you perform in front of people, it all goes haywire?
- Are you bored of playing the same old A minor pentatonic licks?
A lot of people buy instructional books, watch YouTube videos, download lessons from the Internet...
But that’s easy to do. Information is easy to find but...
The question is:
How much of this is getting into your actual playing?
How can you actually sound more awesome?
How can you improve your improv?
Welcome to the [Intro to Jazz Blues Guitar Course] Version 2.0
