The Jewel Box Vol.1 is a downloadable collection of 29 guitar lessons, complete with audio, notation, tab and an explanation and analysis of the ideas presented, along with suggestions for developing the ideas in your own way.
Click the ‘download’ link on the music player. All the notation/tab etc., is included in the download.
The lessons range from simple to complex, so for an example of what’s included, here are two of the 29 PDFs included in the download: a simple one [listen] featuring some laid-back, funky comping, and a more complex one [listen] featuring a syncopated, chromatic fusiony solo. And, if you want, all the audio can be previewed in the player below. Or instead of faffing around, you could just download the entire thing and start using it :) What are you waiting for??
You can also hit the ‘Share’ button on the player to share it on Facebook, Twitter, or just about anywhere, or email it to a friend. It really helps to spread the word!
Hope you like it!
