Did you really study guitar with Joe Pass and Barney Kessel?

Like @pehlmanr I am also wondering what the best right-hand technique approach might be.

I'm currently rethinking my own approach as I'm trying to play your version of "Autumn Leaves". I am wondering how you did the first run on 0:19?

Did you straight-pick it all, or did you do hammer-ons and pull-offs?

I would really appreciate some guidance about this.

Thank you. Huge fan here from Germany.

Hi!

Glad you like the lesson! :)

One of the things I focus on in that lesson is the use of pentatonic scales and how to "follow the chords" or "outline" the changes using pentatonic scales only. (I also talk a lot about that in the lesson "Country Guitar: Soloing Concepts".

So what I propose you try is, if you have a progression like a I IV V, in the key of C for example, it would be (two bars of each chord):

C / C / F / F / G / G / C / C /

You can play C major pentatonic over the whole progression, and it would sound good, BUT, if you try and play C major pentatonic over the C chord, and then F major pentatonic over the F chord, and then G major pentatonic over the G chord, you'll notice that this will outline the changes much more.
Did you try that concept yet?

When I create solos I use all the knowledge that I have, and it's from experience, years of transcribing my favourite musicians solos or licks/lines, and I've had many good teachers that has helped me to learn how to use the different scales and arpeggios etc. So I don't have a short answer for the last question.

Kind regards/E

@emilernebro Ah, that's great. Looking forward to it : )

We want to investigate this further and it would help us a lot if you could get back to us with audio and/or a video showing this behavior since we can not recreate the issue on our test devices.

Hi there and thank you so much for the kind words! :) I have a lesson called "Banjo Rolls for Guitar" on this site, and everything I know about the "jerrys breakdown"-playing is in that video! :) I even added a song to that lesson called "Squirrel Chase Rag" (check it out below) that I teach in that lesson. And that song is actually a tribute to Jerry and his song Jerrys Breakdown! Also, "Open String Licks VOL. 2" might be worth checking out if you like that style! :) Kind regards/Emil

Hi there!
Glad to hear that you like the lesson "Fingerstyle Jazz Comping"! :-) Comping (an abbreviation of "accompaniment") is the chords and rhythms that musicians use when we support (or back up) a singer, soloist or a someone playing the melody etc. So in this lesson, we focus on the comping and rhythm guitar playing in the Fingerstyle Jazz style. Kind regards /E
