Thank you, you just reminded me of a record I listened to over 40 years ago... Oscar Peterson, Niels Pedersen, and Joe Pass. :) I'll listen to that again.
Excelente tutorial, la estoy montando!!!
Fuego con to 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Solid guitar face. Awesome tutorial!
It's harder to play without the faces 🤣. I am glad you enjoyed the tutorial, there's more coming up!
You’re very talented, great video!
@@Tarzan118 thank you very much! There's more great content on the way!
Thank you! This is meant to be an exercise to practice approach notes from below, As you showed us previously. We have plenty of classical etudes yet so few "jazz, bebop etudes".
Exactly! That's the whole point, you'll see the benefits soon after learning the etude. I also did it short so you can get better fast without having to deal with learning a long etude.
Thanks bro for using my material! God bless you bro! www.youtube.com/@jonnreyna1
Subscribed! Very clear instruction & demonstrations, thank you!
Thank you so much! There's more coming up!
I have always call that sound the mixolydian pentatonic. Isn't it?
Yes, it’s known as the mixolydian pentatonic or dominant pentatonic in those cases where you have the 6 in the major pentatonic replaced by a b7
Great sound Great !!!
Thanks so much!
Excellent tutorial!!! Matteo Mancuso is A BEAST!!! Oscar Peterson was A FORCE OF NATURE and in a class by himself!!! Miles was a master musician and a trailblazer!
Indeed they are the best of the best. I juat released an etude with these licks on my latest video that's🔥
Thanks. That's really the essence of the jazz, swing blues sound.
Indeed it is!!
Gracias amigo, from UK
Gracias a ti!
❤Excelente!!
Mil gracias! Vienen muchos más!
I don’t quite understand the disconnect of young jazz guitarists. A note can last forever and say something special. Heavier strings are not some special secret. Light strings are helpful to all players. Just because they are easier does nothing to diminish tone and gives access to expression. Your tone is nothing new but almost every jazz guy swears by it. Use the palette work that steel. I’m sorry if this sounds overly critical but you could be much more. U have the skill but the music, while challenging comes off algorithmic! Keep grinding & Good luck. 🕉️
Thanks for the good vibes and the feedback. I'll definitely take it into account
You have a great deal of promise and a good head for jazz. But…. Listen to the old blues masters. Bend a string,use and master vibrato
Genial Roque! exitos!
Muchas gracias!!
Thanks. Love your lessons. Check your mic level as your voice input is clipping throughout. Looking forward to more videos!
Yes, it's a mistake that won't be happening again. I realized after everything the day after everything was recorded. Thank you so much for the support.
That baby face pro is like I’M LIMITING I’M LIMITING AS HARD AS I CANNNNN hahahaha (also - it actually doesn’t sound too apparent) Excellent excellent video, tone and playing tho
@@turunturun thanks a lot man. It was the my mistake on the settings. I just thought it wasn't that evident. But I'll definitely be more careful with this in the future.
¡El teacher! Duro mi hermano, ¡éxito!
El pupilo! 💪🏾 Gracias mi bro!!
A wonderful performance thank you very much. You guys are way underappreciated
My pleasure Richard!! And thank you so much for your kind words!
@@roquedeschamps first name is JD. Second name is Richard.
Beautiful and well performed thank you very much
It's my pleasure. This is truly a lovely tune!
Wow. Really love that progression.
Is really fun to play

A fantastic video, my friend. I love the casual way that you analyze all these various jazz blues players. I’ve been playing guitar since 1967 and really don’t know how to read music. I just played by ear and can play most things. But the mystery of music and jazz has always, astonished me. I’m 65 now although my wife said I’d behave like a 17-year-old. Thanks for this video. I’m not sure why it popped up but I’m really glad I subscribed.
That sounds amazing! That mistery draw me into jazz as well. I feel you! I'm glad you like the content, there's more coming up soon!
@@roquedeschamps thank you very much and keep it up. Where do you live? I’m up here in Canada.
Great lesson!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Really great guitar info presented very well
Thank you kindly!
Love Solo Flight from Charlie Cristian. I think that song is best for studying because it has everything that a jazz guitar phrasing piece could have.
Ohh yes that Charlie Christian solo is amazing!
Great job!
Thanks Corey!! I really appreciate it!! Greetings! I hope everything is great back in the DR.
Hey great lesson! Love the examples pulled directly from the music!
Hey Nathan, thank you so much! That's the goal to do all the learning straight from the music of the greats. BTW your channel it's amazing, I am a fan.
@@roquedeschamps Thanks so much! Wish you success on this platform. Keep up the great lessons!
@@NathanBortonMusic thanks so much! I truly appreciate it!
Excellent video, love the content of it. Keep it up Mr Roque!!
Thanks a lot. There's more coming up soon!
Sorry, nothing new here 🙄 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
That's the goal. Look into old stuff.
Lookout...self appointed expert here. Great in sighted lesson. Obviously some are on another level they can't be positive. Self-recognised geniuses...TH-cam ahs a million of them.
I like the Miles lick the best and I'm not just saying that because it's Miles. It's more melodic and being on the blues helps it to work also
It's definitely the most elaborate ans it's the only one that uses the arpeggio as target + thr half-step pattern
@@roquedeschamps Wayne Shorter also does a similar chromatic in his solo, Herbie also. To be honest I think in MIles' later solos he overused that lick a bit. I also checked out your Lennie Tristano - Line up. Nice work, that is a lot of notes to learn! There is one certain lick there it would be nice if you did a lesson on it, it happens at time 1:06. IT has a sort of rolling sound that stood out. I don't think I've heard anything quite like it before. It is also interesting to compare Tristano's Be Bop lines to Parker/ Gillespie Be Bop lines. I can hear some differences but don't understand them. It could be interesting to compare a Parker solo on the same song that Tristano has a solo on. I have also heard some interesting transcriptions of McCoy Tyner solos like on Passion Dance but for guitar. It can give you ideas that don't come that naturally from guitar, so it might innovate a new style for guitar. But course it's one thing to accomplish some of these transcriptions but another to apply oof it to some other song. I think that would be good for some of you future videos, to hear something like that Gingerbread lick played on a whole different song. That is like a puzzle to figure out how to make it sound good in a new place , using one lick on 3 different style songs
Hi Roque I was wondering are you Dominican man? Your last name and your name is very typical of Dominican dissent.
Yes, I am Dominican. I moved to the US a few months ago. Are you Dominican too?
Yes I an. Born in NYC but parents are Dominican. I play jazz guitar and other genres too. Been doing for 25 + years.
@@anthonyalba8226 That's amazing!!
Where do you live? I live in providence RI.
@@anthonyalba8226 I live in Logan, Utah.
Yes you nice boy talking right stuff 😇
Thanks man! More of that right stuff is cooking!
Spectacular. What pedals are you using? I use a Martin acoustic with fishman pickup. Was thinking about getting the sustain/compressor boss pedal to gain a little more control of the sound while still sounding “acoustic”
I only used a little bit of klon type overdrive and delay for this sound you hear in the video. + The amp's reverb
Great stuff, man! really concise and legit good info! Subbed for more for sure, great lesson!
Thanks a lot! There's more coming up

This video has wisdom!!! wonderful video and definitely will be shedding.
Thank you so much!! More content for you to shred is coming up soon
Half step approach 🎶
Yes sir!!
Great video, thanks for posting.
My pleasure!! I’m glad it was helpful to you!!
Check this out Roque: a 2-5-1 in C ... play over Db Maj7#5, Dbm7b5, Eb Maj7#5, F#m7b5, F#m-Maj7b5, AbMaj7#5, Bb Maj7 ... implement those chords over the chords and/or the major scale in itself ... (in-out) too, if you want to get that Wayne Shorter sonority ... Make a sequence of chord changes with those chords but improvise just with C major ... (out-in)
Thanks for the suggestions!
Great Job!
❤❤❤!!!

One of my all-time favorites
Thanks for the fun concept! I was just wondering what model of Ibanez you're playing? Love the tone.
My pleasure! It’s a vintage model from the time al of the Ibanez models were all replicas of the Gibson models. This is likely from the 70s or 80s is hard to know because they did not use serial numbers back then. My model is a Gibson Howard Roberts replica. I’ve seen many other guitarist using Ibanez from this era. These are called pre-lawsuit era guitars because they had to stop creating replicas after Gibson sue them. The most famous guitarist I’ve seen playing one of these replicas is Mark Whitfield. Thanks for the compliment about the tone, I am also very much in love with the looks and tone of my guitar.
You can see Mark playing a different Ibanez lawsuit model here: th-cam.com/video/FX086qihDO4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=flV2PGAvYmtdZvqR I still see him sometimes playing his Ibanez on some of his IG posts
Roque, you’re a great teacher! I sometimes see this in some Pat Martino transcriptions. It sounds great, but didn’t really know how to practice it. You’ve given me some great ideas.
Thanks for the compliment! I’m glad it was helpful! All great players I’ve come across always develop their own exercises according to the things they need to get better at. Go ahead!!
Great video! Thanks for the lesson. Also, wasn’t that familiar with Jesse Van Ruller. Will do a deeper dive into his playing.
My pleasure!! There's a new video being release later today. Jesse is one of my favorites players ever. He's in another level!
You play lute, also? Impressivo! Here... 🎉 These are for the vocalist! 😉🧙🏾♂️
Yeah! I love baroque music. She's truly amazing.
