One of the best instructional videos I have ever seen. Lot of material presented at a good clip. Excellent analysis. I spent an hour on this video and will need to watch it many more times to absorb it all. Thanks for the great lesson.

Very interesting. Looking forward for the full video release. Thanks man! You know your stuff!

Great job! Love the way you break it down into concepts.

Your classes are on a different level. Excellent work, super inspiring!

Super impressive and very helpful! Thank you so much! Subbed and hoping to see more from you even if they are shorter videos as I imagine this took a lot of time for you to do. Regardless, this is incredibly appreciated and admired!

This brought me to information overload its very fast and a lot of info. your example playing is inspiring.

Superb breakdown of the lines and concepts.

Nice presentation of these motifs - thanks!

Methenys lines sound completely alien slowed down. Super impressive analysis. I wish I could wrap my head around advanced jazz harmony. I just be content being blown away. Nice job, makes me appreciate Pat even more.

Why alien? it’s normal outside playing

Amanda, the "outside or advanced" notes don't matter, you don't need to know or even think about what they are or where they come from. The only thing that matters is the target note. In the case of the very first example the line starts on a D on the downbeat of the first beat then it moves to the target note C on the downbeat of beat 3 of the measure. You get to a target note chromatically, via diatonic or nondiatonic steps or by encircling it. The notes you use to get to a target don't matter, as long as you get to that good strong target (at a good time)! The best musicians in the world SIMPLIFY more than most everyone else would imagine.

@@ToddBrooks-gm6hy I don’t think Pat Oversimplifies music by any means. I can guarantee he’s not just thinking about target notes. I don’t really think he believes in “effortless mastery “, He leaves music and the guitar are hard work. The reason why he can play whatever he wants it because he’s put in so many hours that he is incapable of producing notes without great rhythm feel dynamics and ideas.

I am always impressed with guitar players who can hear and play in this vein and you guys are young on top of it, I force-feed myself daily with everything and anything and I still feel I am not comprehending all of it.. I listen to Jazz and Pat a lot when not playing like on my walks. What advice can you give to the struggling musician who is trying to comprehend the art of Jazz guitar.. Man, I have been playing for a long long time.. Nice work man!

Very nicely analyzed, demonstrated and taught 👍🏻

This is very helpful. In Jazz it’s key to know where the sentence (phrase starts and ends). This video is helpful in seeing where when how he is linking phrases.

Thanks for sharing these are some great building block motifs.

Wonderful lesson

What valuable content….big huge thanks for doing this….

I love this lesson. Actual applicable tools with demonstrations from one the best jazz guitarists. Thanks a million!

I love the SG sound for Pat style jazz tone... I got my Custom 61RI. SGs are criminally underrated in terms of clean sound. They have a very unique percussive nature. The notes really pop, and that light body is an absolute delight. The action and setup are fire 🔥 👌 No... They're not just for AC/DC...

One more observation of interest to me is Pats third finger lines up with his visable thumb above the neck quite often. I think he developed that to practice for extended periods of time early on to hold arm weight. Its a foreign position to my hand..

What a find! This is such a great lesson! I have subscribed and am really looking forward the extended version of this. Wheee does this specific Solar solo come from and is there a YT vid of this performance? Thanks!

It’s taken a few months longer than expected...

Are you using the hammer on from nowhere and some raking on the broken shell chord and other?

Which album did you transcribe Solar from?

Is that an optical illusion or is that an unusually wide fretboard?

👍🇸🇪😊

3 .00 Solar (Question and Answer) 3 50 6.50 8. 52 9. 27 12.44 13. 46 14. 22(F sharp alter.) 15.50
