I get a lot of
I get a lot of questions on practicing scales and technique building on jazz guitar. This lesson is a demonstration of my vision on how to approach scale practice to get the most benefit out of it from an improvisers or jazz guitarist point of view.
Most of the time when the topic of scale practice is discussed in books, videos or online the main focus is on speed and dexterity. In the end I don't find this a very useful goal for scale practice as I think that you will gain much more if you focus on flexibilty and knowing the scale in terms of notes, structures. The reason for this is that when you improvise and you have practiced scales in this way, you have a much larger vocabulary of building blocks to construct your lines with.

My name is Jens Larsen, Danish Jazz Guitarist, and Educator. The videos on this channel will help you explore and enjoy Jazz. Some of it is how to play jazz guitar, but other videos are more on Music Theory like Jazz Chords or advice on how to practice and learn Jazz, on guitar or any other instrument.
The videos are mostly jazz guitar lessons, but also music theory, analysis of songs and videos on jazz guitars.
