    thank you,dnt worry that was pretty much the answer i was expecting,i know this is very complex stuff,im not about to tackle it anytime soon im still struggling with the blues,but ill get it on with the jazz someday!

  13. epilp2 says:

    It’s a lot more …
    It’s a lot more complex than the answer you would like, but using diatonic scales with chromatic passing notes is a good start. Throw in some diminished scales, altered (superlocrian/melodic minor), and whole tone scales, and you’ll have most sounds covered.

    what are the main scales to use on jazz guitar?

  19. sweeptapper says:

    sorry also the Bm7 …
    sorry also the Bm7 is actually a Bminor/major7.usually a “minor/maj7th” uses the 1st,minor3rd,5th,maj7.hence a minor chord with a major 7th. in jazz the use of minor/major chords are facilitated by the Dom7.

  20. sweeptapper says:

    the Bm7 for example …
    the Bm7 for example is like this: 7th fret on the E, 6thfret on the A, 7th on the D &7th on the G. the notes played are: B,Eb/D#,A,D from B thats the 1st, Major 3rd, Dominant 7, minor 3rd.the E7 uses the same shape however its all down one string starting form the Enote at the 7th fret of the A string. E,Ab/G#,D,F#. from E thats the 1st, Major 3rd, Dominant 7, 2nd/9th.if the Dom7 wasn’t there the Chord would be Eadd9, however the Dom7 results in the E9 sound. hope that helps
