Jazz Guitar Breakthrough
Jazz guitar made simple, especially if you’re over 50
You’ve been playing for years but jazz still feels like a secret club you weren’t invited to. You can nail a blues shuffle or rock solo but freeze at the chords, get lost on the fretboard and feel like you’re starting from scratch.
Most lessons are built for music school kids or theory junkies, drowning you in scales and jargon. I teach jazz the way older guitarists learn best - clear steps that link sound to feel before theory. With scale and chord diagrams, scrolling tab, on-screen prompts and weekly lessons with play alongs and backing tracks, you’ll master chords, comp with confidence and solo with a sound you love.

Got a new backing track going live tomorrow. It’s short, sweet and built for looping “All of Me” at 120 BPM. Great for soloing or comping practice.
Set a reminder if you’ve been working on this tune. 🎸

NOT WORKING? 😏
If your guitar practice feels stuck, it’s probably NOT the hours you’re putting in. I break it down in this quick video and show you what to do instead. https://youtu.be/zoU9W_dHFJU?si=CiJ5g...

What if GUITAR practice isn’t even about GUITAR?
This new video’s a bit different.
No drills.
No metronome.
Just two chords… a slower pace… and a chance to actually enjoy playing again.
If practice has felt like a chore lately — this one’s for you.
Watch it here: https://youtu.be/zoU9W_dHFJU?si=Ysm6d...
And if you give it a go, let me know how it felt in the comments.
I’d love to hear what shifts for you.

Which ‘before & after’ hits hardest? 😂 Personally, I’ll take that last one.

When you see a jazz chord symbol you don’t know, what’s your usual reaction?
Be honest — I’ve done all four at some point 😅

🎸 Just dropped a new video:
5 Easy Licks to Instantly Sound More Jazzy
These aren’t dry exercises — they’re real, musical ideas you can actually use in a solo. If you’ve ever felt like your 2-5-1 lines sound more like scale drills than jazz… this one’s for you.
Let me know which lick speaks to you most — I’ve been using #3 in everything lately.

🎸 Ever tried to play a 2‑5‑1 using just one scale shape?
This was a total game-changer for me when I started out in jazz.
Instead of jumping all over the neck trying to “follow the chords,” I learned how to stay in one position and still outline the whole 2‑5‑1 — clearly, musically, and without overthinking it.
If you haven’t seen it yet, I walk through the exact arpeggio moves in this video. It’s all within a single C major scale shape.
