I am a guitarist, I am technically very proficient and know my theory and scales and modes rather well. I just have a few problems here and there with remembering their shapes on the spur of the moment but for the most part I think I'm pretty good at application.
But the part where I fluster and fumble big time is when I am given a jazz type progression with multiple lightning fast changes happening and key changes happening and when I have to solo on them. I just freeze I panic and I don't think I am ready to apply my knowledge to Jazz music as of now.
Can someone PLEASE tell me how to go about in a structured way and start playing jazz guitar. Its so demanding. Please tell me how I can be a good jazz musician. Can someone please tell me a thing or two about complex harmonies and tri-tone subsitutions. How are modes or scales applied over various chord progressions. The priniciple of jazz soloing and stuff. I HOPE some able muscian reads this. thanks
