Grant Green Played THIS Lick 1,000 Times (Here's Why)
Guitar Pro Files, PDF's, and More for this lesson on Patreon: / nathanbortonmusicpatreon Many jazz guitarists think they need to learn hundreds of different licks to sound professional. But legends like Grant Green knew that having one versatile, geometric phrase was more powerful than a bag of disconnected tricks. In this jazz guitar lesson, we break down a classic quote from "Honeysuckle Rose" that Green used as a skeleton key to unlock the fretboard. We will look at the geometry of the phrase, how to apply this single shape over Major, Minor, and Dominant chords to create a full ii-V-I system, and an advanced technique using it as a Tritone Substitution to get modern, "altered" tension in your lines. This is a blueprint for building your own bebop vocabulary. More Grant Green Lessons: Minor Blues: • Why Grant Green's Minor Blues Soloing Is P...
