Are your jazz lines becoming predictable? Are you bored of playing scalar or bebop phrases? Come and join Sid Jacobs as he shares his approach to intervallic soloing using 4ths! You will discover how to easily express beautiful modal sounds. Find out how to play these amazing lines that will fit many situations. The best part of the master class is to be able to see how Sid plays these lines fluidly using specific left hand and right hand fingerings. You will be able to hear how Sid phrases these lines as well as study selected examples in the accompanying PDF. Understand and apply these modern ideas to:

Modes of the major scale (Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian and Locrian)
Melodic Minor modes (Melodic Minor, Dorian b2, Lydian Augmented, Mixolydian b6, Locrian ♮2 and Altered)

In addition to learning how to improvise using these sounds, Sid also shares concepts on groove, how to practice and how to create variations on the lines he demonstrates. This is a great class for any guitarist who would like to get out from playing standard scalar, bebop or arpeggio based soloing.
