Hi Reg, I really enjoy your jazz guitar vids a lot and have learned some very cool stuff from them. May I make one suggestion? Could you maybe slow down and explain the critical parts a little bit more in depth? "There's the sub five" (at :39). Does that mean the use of a subdominant or maybe it's a flat five sub (tri-tone sub)? I guess it's all the same….just a question of how you want to think of it in your own mind. These are all really modes of the melodic minor (no avoid notes!)….in this case Ab melodic minor.
Oh I forgot to mention that I really love the tone you get out of your guitar…that's a Guild, isn't' it? could you mention which model and what you are playing through? Thanks!
Thanks, I always learn something new with your videos .. I would like you to help me with a song called "How great thou art" .. I play guitar in a church and I like to play jazz style, I hope you can help me and give me new ideas of how to play that song .. God bless and hope not to have bothered with this request
Reg , great lesson.At 1:52 ish you talk about x2 tritones off the G melodic minor , you then go on to play off an Eflat9 chord , calling it a V chord , and then play an Eflat melodic minor scale , where does the second tritone and Eflat9 come in? cheers.
+Imnotgiving outmynamefaggots He uses Db9 as a tritone substitution for G7, hence he calls it a sub V. Essentially it acts like V (=G7) chord in relation to C. That's because Db7 has same tritone interwal as G7 (F and B notes). However Db9 also includes notes from G alt scale which sounds very jazzy with good phrasing like Reg demonstrates :)
Imnotgiving outmynamefaggots Thanks for the update , i agree Reg is great but his lessons are confusing , a little more structure and they would be really helpful.
Now THESE are USEFUL videos. Thank YOU, greetings from Lisbon.
Great lesson. I am spending way more time with the melodic minor now. cool.
Love the blue dangles
Reg, you are wonderful, but man, I wish you would speak in complete sentences!
thanks... I should be posting some more soon...Reg

+IDigFusion IMO he goes from Eb7 to Db7 to G7 to Cmaj. Eb7 lies within the G-altered scale as Db7 does .
+Generalterz That's true
