Hey Roger - what an absolute treat to hear you play along with Joe Pass-I wanted to ask as a much more green jazz guitarist if you had a pdf of this transcription? Would love to sit down and dig into it and learn some stuff. Please let me know, thanks!

[@tito_pane]

damn boe, you killed it! is that an af95fm?

[@rogeramundsen126]

Thx!! It's a Ibanez af2000

[@kevinsspanish]

Awesome..there is so much information gained in learning these solos of the masters which can later be applied to other tunes and even ballads and or song writing. All the masters did this (ex. George Benson listening to Grant Green, Tal Farlow and Wes or Earl Klugh learning tons of Chet Atkins’ tunes. Totally enjoyed!

[@rogeramundsen126]

Thank you much!! I think the best thing you do to improve your playing and improvisations is to transcribe solos, so I think I will keep doing it 😄

[@johnpauldeguzman823]

good job which recording was this taken from?

[@rogeramundsen126]

I linked the original video in the description!

[@user-sn3rv1zc5z]

😮

[@wangluyi]

[@playablecharacter3871]

it looks like an Art-core from the mid 2000's or early 2010's

[@rogeramundsen126]

Thank you! It's a Ibanez af2000

[@wangluyi]

@@playablecharacter3871 thank you

[@wangluyi]

@@rogeramundsen126 thank you. Looks good

[@brianolderfellow7379]

Cookin man…looks like my GB10..keep them coming!

[@JesusRamirez-vt6lk]

Do you still play the AF? Thinking about buying one

[@rogeramundsen126]

Yes! Lovely guitar, I really recommend it!

[@ronaldboykin9755]

If you can play just friends without copying a joe pass solo you are a great player! Copying a solo just means you have developed good technique!

[@rogeramundsen126]

Thank you, i think it's important to transcribe solos from the greats to learn the language and to learn their ideas when you improvise!

[@es330]

True but he has learned some great licks from a master that he can use now.He is lucky to have that good techincal skill.
Remember Pass was a great improvisor but also a huge lick player. Steal from the best.

[@axeman2638]

slow it down and really nail the phrasing before trying it at tempo, you aren't cutting it that fast i'm afraid and trying to play fast before you are ready will actually hold you back in the long run.

[@jellyfoxmusic]

great work!!

[@rogeramundsen126]

Thx!!
