How to Play Jazz Guitar : How to get the Jazz Tone From Your Amplifier

Koreanflow Says:

Jun 4, 2010 - And here is my "find a good jazz tone through your amp/guitar" in 3 short comments. I do believe I did a much better job than this atrocity of a video.

Sep 10, 2010 - lol... the title of the video is how to get a jazz tone from the amp and all he says is pretty much dont use distortion.. :P oh and then "play some jazzy lines and turn the buttons".

Oct 11, 2010 - Roland Jazz Chorus S.U.C.K.S. and this was really quite a waste of my time, you should've focused on getting jazz tones with common non-jazz types like solid body strats and les pauls or even a BC Rich with powered EMG pickups!

Nov 14, 2010 - Why do you say the JC sucks. So many guitar players use/have used the JC.  What's your beef?

ImperialArmour Says:

Nov 14, 2010 - for one thing it's thin and bright as hell, and sounds like shattered glass with anything more than a generic overdrive. try playing a funk groove on the higher strings with a pure single coil without a compressor and you'll know what I mean. Also, the volume has to be past the 10'o'clock for the full tone to come through. The jazz chorus is usually the kind of equipment you get in cheaper jamming studios.

fishqwer Says:

Nov 14, 2010 - I'm convinced you are using the amp for the wrong purposes based on your description. It has become an iconic amp, not for "funk grooves" or distortion, but by its warm cleans. For funk/blues it is commonly accepted that tube amps are a much better choice. Where the JC excels is at traditional jazz cleans. If you want a good clean amp that you can throw some pedals in front of, grab a deluxe reverb, but don't complain that an amp is bad, just because you don't know its uses.

Nov 17, 2010 - or you could not spend a thousand dollars on an amp and get a fender champ 600, because its warm and cheap and tube and if your watching expert village, ur probably a beginner anyway.

Jan 2, 2011 - if someone is enough sensitive to his sound to play ''jazz''music, he will know how to roll his knobs to get a great tone. if someone look at this video and find something interesting, he should know how to tune his guitar first.

Jan 16, 2011 - wanna learn to play jazz?, first of all don't listen to this guy and you are good to go

chrisalcant Says:

Jun 19, 2011 - What do you mean? most amps has 0 to 10? do you know any that doesn't? lol

THEbrassMONKEEZ Says:

Jun 22, 2011 - yeah the hot rod deluxe goes 0 - 12

rolijen Says:

Jun 28, 2011 - I don't get these critical people on YouTube. I think your playing is top notch and the amp sounds great. Thanks for sharing.

Jul 24, 2011 - what a negative bullshit reactions from a lot of people. I think this guy plays very well, really knows what he is doing in terms of technique, scales, harmony's etc and he is just giving tips that you can either use or don't use. stop this negative whining. I'd rather learn from someone with the knowhow like this then all this morons who just burn somebody down and post crap. Thanx for your uploads Dustin, I think they are very handy.

Aug 10, 2011 - not helpful really

TxJamesxT Says:

Oct 2, 2011 - See, if they've seen his other videos this guy really knows what he's talking about. He's speaking for beginners, and from a beginner's perspective, this is all helpful stuff.
