Hear & Play Advanced Guitar 301 is now available!

The structure of “Advanced Guitar 301 – Licks, Tricks, and Solos” is pretty straightforward.

We essentially cover 4 genres of music: Funk, Gospel, R&B, and Jazz.

In each of those genres, we start by teaching you the underlying chords that make up the patterns you’re hearing. So if you’re in the “funk” section, you’ll start by learning the funk chords he’s using as a bare minimal (even beginners can benefit from this part).

Then we proceed to break down 5 unique riffs, runs, licks, or tricks you can play over these same chords. In fact, the underlying chords and patterns hardly change. But you learn dozens of ways to approach improvising over them. We do this for funk, r&b (soul), gospel (shouting music), and jazz.

By the end, you’ll have 20 professional, advanced soloing licks you can pull out the cupboard at any time.

Here’s a lesson I just recorded for you. It covers a few worship chords and progressions you can put to work for you right away! I hope you enjoy it. I had fun making it. Duration: 43 minutes!

Happy New Year!

Yup, it’s been that long since I’ve written in my blog… but for good reason…

You’ll probably remember I promised I’d go on vacation after the launch of my latest 12-disc “Musician Transformation” & Gospel Music Training Center launch in December 2009 (which sold out, btw).

But that’s not the only reason I’ve been gone…

Wow, what can I say…

I think I’ve started something here…

The last few weeks, I’ve been trying out a new format
by taking really good questions from students and not only
answering them personally, but sending them to our entire
mailing list.

This has resulted in a lot of love — and even MORE
questions from dedicated students all around the world. I’ve
received at least a good couple hundred questions that could
easily keep me busy sending responses like this for years…

But here’s one that made the top of the list. I think
you’ll really be helped by my reply to Tyler. It’s long but
packed with details. About 5 lessons in one.

PRINT THIS OUT because it really is *that* important.

Hi Jermaine,

Dude, you are incredible. Your knowledge of theory is on
another planet. Thanks for what you do man, for real.

I’m trying to learn all 12 keys and I happen…

Hi Jermaine,

Last week’s e-mail was totally awesome! This number system
stuff is quite new to me but you’ve totally made it plain. You
certainly have a knack for breaking stuff down and I want to
thank you for taking the time to do this.

On one of your blog posts, you talked about primary and
secondary chords. You also talked about how each tone of the
scale has its own chord that is usually played.

Hi Jermaine,

Thanks for sending such an informative e-mail. I feel like you give so much through your website, blog, and e-mails (maybe too much). Do you ever sleep?

Well, here’s another e-mail to add to your insomnia. :-)

You mentioned the number system and how it is key when it comes to
