The "Charlie Parker Omnibook" has note for note transcriptions of TONS of his solos. It is in standard notation which is a problem for a lot of people, but if you can read it, it's definitely worth picking up if you are into learning/playing bebop style licks and solos.

You have some really nice lessons on your channel. Jazz it up dude! ;)

[ChavezRey]

Great lick played with nice tone. This is really useful, thanks. One suggestion is count in to the lick for people playing along.

[TheJazzGuitarSite]

if you open up the tab (just hit the link in the description box), you will see that the "chromatic" notes are played over the V (G7) chord. The notes are the b9 and #9 in relation to G.

[TheJazzGuitarSite]

They are two very different books. The 50 Jazz Licks will provide you with a variety of licks in numerous styles, and the licks will be presented in an easy to learn way. The Omni is purely a collection of transcribed Charlie Parker solos and can be a great way to pick up some bebop vocabulary. I am unaware of your current skill level, but I will tell you that the Omni is a much more advanced method of study that the 50 Jazz Licks book. Hope this helps!

this lick is within Donna Lee (bars 15-16) :) that melody incorporates most of the bebop frasing concepts ^^

@Rickyyy001 There is more feedback because guitars with a floating pickup have thinner cut bodies and resonate more, creating feedback. If you go to the eastman website, they sell basically the same guitar but with built in pickups which will not feedback as much. You should look into those if you are concerned about feedback.

@licksforalltheplayas
I have an Eastman Pisano. Much less prone to feedback, Ricky. The sound is very similar to the 810 acoustically.

[TheJazzGuitarSite]

It's an Eastman 810. Thanks for the comment!

How do you play that jazz rhytmn at 1:14 I get it you apply the melody over it but rhythmn is the most important thing thats what I need to learn inorder to be successful in jazz music

[TheJazzGuitarSite]

@Rickyyy001 it's the 810 model. It has an amazing acoustic sound when not plugged in, but when playing with drums and bass, it will feedback really really badly. If you normally play with a band, I wouldn't buy a guitar like this with a floating pickup

[AriHuber]

Don't, I play an 805ce (essentially the deluxe model), with floating pickup. Although feedback can be a drag, you can control it if you know how. Using a grounded built in pickup sacrifices a lot of good tone for stability.

[Rickyyy]

@Rickyyy001 Does the floating pickup increase the feedback?

[fedbos]

50 Must Know Jazz Guitar Licks is a better book than CHarlie Parker Omnibus? Particulary for solos? thanks

[Rickyyy]

Hey bro what model eastman is that?? Do you like it? Im thinking about buying one.

[TheJazzGuitarSite]

Do you mean the feel? To get the "jazz feel" all it takes is swinging the eighth notes.
