Omg - you are like the ONLY person that actually stated what "Comping" meant! Thank You!!!!

[ricklanders]

That guitar sounds so good! Great info as usual, thx

[TJ-fczz]

Thank you for this! My comping still needs more work. This is a great guide!

[zedius]

Thanks Brent :) Doing really great job here!

[latenight]

Could you please make a video sometime on how pianists and guitarists comp under bass improvisation as well?

[elninojustino]

Can you recommend a video for learning more about roman numeral analysis? Besides 2 5 1, I know very little

[elninojustino]

I find shell voicing on the guitar very helpful

The most important thing in comping is doing less and be in rhythmical harmony with the soloist especially if it’s bass player

[BrizzleRocker]

I could be wrong but the section on Inversions contradicts itself or has some confusion around which exactly is the root.
"3rd in the bass for the 7th inversion" - I think you may have got that the wrong way round!

🦉Everything’s nice and clear except in the ascending off-beat comping exercise the Edim7 should be on the sixth fret, not the 5th. 😉🎵

[alexmarkowski]

Why do you make me tense i feel like there is going be a quiz on this hahaha

[jefff]

Ascending off-beat exercise - your sheet music says Edim7 but the tab fingering shows Ebdim7

[pedroalvesguitar]

What's the name of the Brazilian guitarist you mentioned?

[Hans_Magnusson]

Less jazz! Definitely not JAS
To much Sweden and outside age constraint

[wigman]

The title is so misleading. This is basic advice and not pro
