There's so much vocabulary to lift from this short improvisation. His phrasing and note choice are sublime throughout. Most of my favourite jazz solos are not guitar solos, but trumpet or saxophone solos. It's a great exercise to try and transcribe these sounds and "guitarify" them. You'll learn so much by getting out of your comfort zone, and encountering a few awkward fingerings and troubleshooting your way to a playable piece! As well as learning my arrangement of his solo, we'll also spend some time discussing some nice ways to play the chordal accompaniment for it. A jam-packed lesson for sure! ;) ⏱️ Time stamps ⏱️ 00:00 - Performance 00:45 - Mission Brief 01:50 - Lesson Materials 02:12 - Turnaround to Start 02:50 - Solo Breakdown Begins 03:16 - Common Bebop Phrasing 03:57 - 2nd Bar 04:25 - Substitutional Thinking 06:53 - Technical Phygian Dominant Lick 08:16 - B Section 10:15 - Timing is EVERYTHING! 11:00 - Slow Playthrough 13:00 - Classy Chords Lesson Begins! 15:42 - Essential Dominant Chord Run 17:32 - Matt Munisteri spread triad ii-V 19:31 - Tone Talk! 20:12 - Sign-off! 20:41 - What’s Your Favourite Non-Guitar Solo? 🎥 Reference Videos; 🎥 "It Could Happen To You" chord melody; https://youtu.be/JNXtDtbaWjw?si=G4PWrAxOSyfDTHii Triads and three note voicings; https://youtu.be/fvvIc93f-EU?si=X0REa9pcLZ_6oqZC Diminished - How it Works! https://youtu.be/JNXtDtbaWjw?si=G4PWrAxOSyfDTHii ---------------------------------------- Gear used in this video; 1958 Gibson es175 Lazy J20 amp Thomastik "Swing" Flatwounds - 13 gauge Bluechip STP45 plectrum Universal Audio OX - amp top box Universal Audio Apollo Twin X Logic Pro Universal Audio plugins Sony ZVE-10 camera Neewer Desktop Tripod Final Cut Pro Thanks for watching!
