Great video, thanks! Learning jazz language has taken me years to start thinking of notes in terms of scale and chord numbers and where they are on the fingerboard. I'm still working on it and this is a big help.
Thanks! I use an amp sim to record not a real amp. It's just one of the clean amps in the free version of Amplitube 5. The reverb is part of that too. Live, I usually use a DV Mark amp.
When you want to play any chord, do you play the diminished arpeggio half step below the chord before getting to the chord? Pls i need more clarity on this cause I'm confused.
You can do that, but that's not really what this video is specifically about. Here it is more that 1. the V in a II-V is often altered 2. One very common alteration is 7(b9) , eg F7(b9) 3. If you play a 7(b9) arpeggio but omit the root note, you are left with a dim7 arpeggio. 4. This is useful, sounds good, helpful to know, and a very common sound However, as you suggest, people often do lead into any chord with a dim7 a half step below. In a way, it is the same thing as I outline in the video and definitely is a sound you hear.
You’re a great teacher, with a great sense of humor, very interesting and entertaining, fun!
I'm always very serious. Just joking- thanks!
Great stuff I love it!

@@TeachingJazz thanks, now I get it
That'd be a thing you could do if you desired to.
Bass players don't have many of the problems guitarists do. ;)
