  Improv in the style of Bach By Chris Standring



Jazz guitar lessons
Hi I'm Chris Standring and I run PlayJazzGuitar.com - the website you have just landed at. I've been ensconced in the jazz guitar world for about 25 years now. I've made many records and it's time to give back a little. I'm very interested in creating new effective ways to teach the jazz guitar language and since the success of my Play What You Hear CD ROM program I am intrigued to be able to capitalize on that interactive idea to present new programs in the future.

Do subscribe to my newsletter as I have many cool items of jazz guitar news for you, including a ton of free lessons. The subscribe box is over to the right here.....>

We have a thriving jazz guitar forum where hundereds of like minded jazz guitar aficionados get together and chat about all aspect of jazz guitar.

I have a section that features jazz guitar articles I have personally penned. I have many thoughts about the artistry of jazz guitar, particularly as I am often going through issues myself and I like to get my thoughts down on paper.

Check out the all new jazz guitar solo transcriptions section. This will grow to be a great resource for all players wanting to expand their melodic vocabulary.

If you are looking for systematic step by step jazz guitar lessons to really improve your playing, I invite you to check out my programs. My Play What You Hear course has stood the test of time where thousands of students have become fantastic players.

I am also very excited to announce that my new Jazz Guitar Video Masterclass volume 1 is now officially released released. Volume 2, which is focused 100% on jazz guitar chord melody will be available in September 2013.

Thanks for dropping by, don't be a stranger, and do drop me a line, I'm always happy to get feedback.
