Does any one have a simple approach to playing Jazz on C 6th 10 string neck? Or how you would make jazz chords?
Thanks Doug

I think C6 does have that reputation for jazz made simple, but when I listen to the Forum's Sez Adamson... well, he makes it look easy.
At the bottom of this page, http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=303807, David Dixon says he may make Buddy Emmons C6 courses available. Could there be a better course? |

Here you go Jim. Doesn't get any simpler than this. Proof that some folks spend too much time trying to play the right notes.

To get even farther away from the topic, here's how to count the twelve bar Blues:

Pure Joy.
Doug, seriously, there are umpteen courses to choose from. I would look into courses by the master, Mr. Emmons.
By the way, have a look at some of Mr. Emmons videos, jazz or otherwise. He has the same look on his face as the elephant. The face of pure joy.
This might help also >>

When I was studying jazz guitar, my teacher, who also taught at local universities, would express his displeasure with his college students, who could play some rock, thinking that they could play jazz as easily. He often said jazz was not created to be easy. One of the impulses for creating it was to play licks that your peers couldn't play. Serious jazz players know when you're faking it.
So after many years of playing jazz guitar, I came back to the pedal steel and have thoroughly enjoyed translating my jazz over to it. When I figure out a new tune and it didn't seem that hard, I remind myself of all the years of study and practice it took to make it "easy".
So while it probably won't be easy, it will definitely be rewarding. |

Well, I'm working on getting some tunes polished enough to record and share. I'll post them when they're done.
I'm mainly playing western swing and Byrds/Burritos out theses days. Thanks for kicking it up a few notches on the priority list. |

| This is not a shortcut, but a lot of jazz is based on the more hip versions of the twelve bar blues, so learn those chord changes. Also many jazz songs are based (at least loosely) on the chord changes to Greshwin's "I Got Rhythm", commonly known as "rhythm changes" Learning those chord changes would be a good start. |

This makes sense. it explains why I'm no good at jazz. I'm just not smart enough.
It's also explains why banjo players can't play jazz. They are always faking it.

I had C6 instruction course by Buddy, came with a tape, I got it years ago from Scotty..it was very easy , slow start into C6, and just after little bit of practice it would make you sound good enough to get you motivated and going... that was great course ...

Jim Palenscar sells Buddy's Basic C6 course. Ste
ve Palousek's dvds are great. Herb Steiner's courses are excellent. |
