Thanks, man. My ears were loking for that D9 and couldn't find it.👍

Beautiful man!

awesome job

The is the review I needed

Hi, do you still have your epiphone Joe pass?

Great video, thanks!

As for the "Viennese price tag" it's important to keep in mind that the Thomastik-Infeld's _last a long time_, at least twice or three times as long as most other brands, in addition to their great tone. They're similar to the (German) Pyramid brand in this respect--you're getting what you pay for: fantastic, sonorous tonality that lasts!

This was interesting, but I'm not really any wiser. You said roundwound suit fingerstyle, but I find they're awful. If you play solo chord-melody, with a walking bassline like a lot of Joe Pass' work, each shift along the bass strings just squeaks like mad, especially with new strings. There is a middle way called groundwound. D'Addario calls them "Half Rounds", and ghs call them "Brite Flats". These start out as roundwound, but the peaks are ground down so they are half-way between flat and round. They keep most of the brightness of roundwound, but with much lower string noise. They tend to be more expensive than either round or flat, because of the extra manufacturing step, but if you're playing jazz and want a bright sound, they can save you from the dreaded squeaks. I know the Thomastik strings are expensive, but they do last. The two things that require most guitarists to regularly change strings are 1) crud in the grooves of wound strings, and 2) wear on the frets. Jazz players rarely bend strings, which is the prime reason for wear, and with flatwound strings, there's nowhere for crud to accumulate. Obviously, there's a third reason, which is corrosion, but with flatwound strings, it's really easy to wipe them down after a session and keep them sounding fresh. Flatwound are also kinder on your frets,

This was a very good listing that will satisfy anyone who has wondered which gauge, and brand of strings used by history's most well regarded players. I hope you do produce an amended episode to this list. I was surprised that these names were missing: George Van Eps, Charlie Christian, Emily Remler, or Tal Farlow Et al.

Excellent lesson mate! ❤

also cheep jazz amps,,, etc pls

most groovy,,,, now pls recom jazz geetars at a non painful price range,,, cheeper da beta,, of course

I can do this… I’m learning to play between the dots🎉

Best class!!! Thanks.

Amazing Thank you Ricky for sharing the knowledge 😊

I have some strain in my hands after working in a factory years ago so I pretty much go as light as I can, I prefer round wounds and the only I would add to your thoughts I have a guild with a bigsby vibrato and that usually works better with an unwound 3rd string, I have a couple of jazz guitars with the same pickups Gibson P94s and one has flats and the other has round wounds, my acoustic arch tops get lighter silk and steel more Django style strings

His not a virtuoso

❤❤❤❤ ty

cheers dude

outstanding tones

Thank you for the help and ideas fr :)

Good info but the Godan still sounds too piezo(ee?) to me. Playability and tone are my two biggest requirements. Especially with my aging hands.

Thank You so much sir!! When I did a text search it seemed like all the reviews were great! Was getting excited and your vid and the comments your site has gained has saved me a lot of grief. So glad you made this video. I miss the bric k and mortar studios with real people! I hope/ pray you were able to get new students via better options.

Bro get to the point

Great voicings, especially for those of us that can’t play those Ted Greene chords….thank you!!

Way back when I played gigs I found I was using light gauge strings at home and heavier ones when gigging. I think the higher volumes weren't holding as well with my light gauge strings.

Great lesson, thank you much!

Wonderful video with great references.

Yikes, glad I saw this. :-o

magnifique ! Bravo !

Ted Greene?

Very good connection between chords and soloing here. I start to learn Jazzguitar from Fred Sokolow's ¨The Complete Jazz Guitar'' and leared the songs. Every song was analyzed with use of scales and chord progression's. Also learned from a book from Joe Pass ( blue book with record sheet). Can't find it right now. Some Videos from Hot Licks with joe Pass. Also Jazz Guitar Van Manakas (cassette and Book) All this is a good mix. There is alot on the Tube, but everyone is not good teacher's.

thanks, I was looking for this info. Very useful!

Hi , Ricky,what kind of strings do you use?

This is terrific. Well done!

cool vid man

Thanks this was helpful

thanks for helping with the chords 😊

What synth was originally used for the intro?

Thank you so must from thai

Joe Pass always plays with a ES 175 Gibson

Very interesting!

By the way: Dee-a-kweesto. D'Aquisto.

Nice try, but many inaccuracies. Joe Pass did have a L-5 sitting in the corner of his den, but he obviously built his career around an es-175. There is no such thing as Sandowsky. It's Roger Sadowsky, builder for many respected players. It's great that you're a fan, but you have to be more careful with your comments.

For that matter, you could begin with EVERYTHING on the 3rd fret. That is to say, low E, A, and D. Which ends you up with G-C-F- G open - B open. Then, to C maj. as usual. If I was in the key of E, that 3rd fret "G/C" thing you do, would go up to the 7th fret. A B/E chord, if you will.

After watching this I have decided to play with NO strings on my guitar. . To many choices and such

WOW

A real "no nonsense" view on strings for jazz guitar, thanks a lot!

Hi Ricky. try an AmM13 after the G#7 played (low E to high) X04554 instead of the straight G#7. Also on the 'holding chord' D9 put a G# note on the top of it making it a D9#11.
