Biblioteca de la Guitarra y Cuerda Pulsada

An important part of playing a great solo is also to not play with the same approach all the time. You have to play the song and make strong melodies, but like Joe Pass does here: You need to have different types of melodies or colors in your playing. If there is one guitar player you want to check out for bop guitar then it is probably Joe Pass. His playing is really setting the standard when it comes to solid bebop lines on guitar. In this video, I take a few examples of his playing on the C Jazz Blues: Relaxin' at Camarillo and talk about the different kinds of lines that he uses on the blues.
