Greetings Jack and thank you BTW for these incredible lessons. After 10 yrs of playing I found myself stuck as a below average intermediate. I've logged in thousands of hours doing everything imaginable. Self taught unfortunately but recently a few simple thoughts have begun to change things. One comment someone made was 1) that most of us already have enough tools in the box to produce something meaningful but don'tknowhow to apply them; and 2)what you said: "a template to give our solos more structure ie. spaces in our phrasing to change them" In this 5 minute lesson you taught me something I never put much thought or effort into. Always feeling like I need to keep playing alot of notes to sound interesting. Copying other people was nice to learn songs and riffs but I was not creative and could never figure out what it was that the pros are doing. In a never-ending search for simplicity this 5 minute lesson unlocked years of frustration (along with several other lessons you posted. Thus lesson alone with a little practice resulted in 75 minutes of my 1st original work ever. Far from great but by definitely my most enjoyable experience since I started playing guitar 10 years ago. Something I definitely forgot about... isn't that why we started in the 1st place 🤔 Many many thanks to you again Jack.
In a world of shredding, this is such an incredibly valuable lesson. This is more about saying something rather than go fast. Very musical. I'm quickly becoming a fan! Thank you from Texas!
You’re awesome man, I absolutely love your online lessons and your style of playing! It’s so accurate and melodic with no wasted notes. Keep on keeping on! 🤙🎸
Jack I've been playing 50 years, I've expanded a lot from listening to you. Melodic and sweet. Larry Carlton is my favorite player. I've been following Larry since the 70's when he was with the Jazz Crusaders. Your style is solid and there bro. Los Angeles Playing the changes
I so wish Jack was around when I was a young spry kid super impressionable and looking for distinct and solid direction on guitar ......for these great YT videos but mostly as a private instructor. Calm and yet authoritative instruction and great musical direction would have made such a materially altered positive change of direction in my own playing style!! Jim C.
Jack! You are a wellspring. Spaces, yes! I’ve recently begun this approach. Silence is as effective as a flurry of notes. Spaces allow you to feel what was played.
Well, you have done it, again. Now I see why your solos are so interesting by taking the same line and varying the tempo. Very illustrative. Made me by your new course. :-). Best, Robert
Jack, what's that third chord where you highlight the D note, third string 7th fret? It doesn't sound dominant to me. It's very Boz Scaggs sounding, if you get my meaning. Another awesome lesson, pal. I've just stopped work for a few weeks break and it's so nice to return to find your videos to help me relax and unwind as I get back into my guitar headspace. 😉

Making the (guitar) world a better place, One lesson at a time. Thanks Jack !

Thank you from Texas!
These videos definitely have the best guitar tones hands down.
Glad you think so!
A bit too modern and elevator-ish for my taste, but they certainly are recorded nicely!
You’re awesome man, I absolutely love your online lessons and your style of playing! It’s so accurate and melodic with no wasted notes. Keep on keeping on! 🤙🎸
The thing that jumped out at me the most was changing the subdivision. Thanks for posting.
BEAUTIFUL in it’s simplicity and clarity!!!! Able to implement immediately. Thank You!

Thanks Jack. Explained with the right words to make very simple directions I can keep in my head as I play.

Incredible lesson, it’s so difficult to find people who tackle these kind of lessons, thank you
Best teacher I’ve found.

Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much to you and Papa for once again blowing my mind with knowledge.

As always great job Jack.... I love underplaying more than overplaying.... You have great feel command of the instrument. Keep it up MATE!
Another amazing tutorial. Thanks so much!

Oh nice! But what does that mean?

Thank you for your valuable content. You have so much soul and feeling in your playing. It’s a pleasure just to sit back and listen to.
GREAT LESSON BROTHER!!!
Great lesson, thanks Jack.
Thanks Jack, great content as always. It would be great if you could eventually explain your signal path. Your tone is impressive.
Thank you
As always, so much great instruction and phrasing ideas. Love having the Patreon subscription. Thank you so much.
you rule Jack
What year is that old Telecaster?
I know most of the great sound is coming from that amp, but that's a lovely guitar.
ever considered putting some stuff up on spotify? i could listen to your playing all day
Nice thanks. Do you also provide Guitar Pro files on Patreon?
Do you do zoom lessons
If you look up "God-tier guitar phrasing" in the Encyclopedia Britannica, you'll see a picture of Jack.
What concepts covered in the course?
Why can't I do the phrasing good? It sounds always bad and makes not good phrasing music.. :(
Hey i think scammers have contacted me today pretending to be you,
Jack, what's that third chord where you highlight the D note, third string 7th fret? It doesn't sound dominant to me. It's very Boz Scaggs sounding, if you get my meaning.
