Jazz Blues Rhythmic Variation by Guy Fenocchi is a free guitar lesson on playing lead jazz guitar. We'll take a simple jazz line, keep the melodic structure, and then vary the rhythm. Using three lines in G, C, and D, we'll apply this idea of variation in the context of a 12 bar blues. If you continue to practice this concept it will become very natural to use. To learn more advanced lines, check out Guy's premium Jazz Blues 201 Package.

Jazz Blues 201 Package by Guy Fenocchi is a collection of Quicktime video lessons that will teach you six guitar solos. In each lesson you will learn a 12 bar jazz guitar solo that has some bluesy characteristics. Guy will divide the 12 bar form into four sections that will cover playing over the 1 chord, 4 chord, a 2-5 line, and then a turnaround. Guy will explain the music theory involved in the solos and practice along with a rhythm track. The downloads also include .pdfs of the tabs and .mp3 jam tracks. The solos cover playing over progressions in Ab, Bb, C, Eb, F, and G.
