What Our Members Say...

“Hi Jay, I just wanted to say how good this course is. The pentatonic scales have given me a renewed confidence in my improvising & my playing by ear. I now know for certain that this course is going to take me to the next level & beyond. Thanks again.”

“I have just played the first backing track and rattled off my first attempt at improvisation using what I’ve gleaned so far. Well, even to me, it sounded not bad. The hair on the back of my neck stood up just thinking of the implications of what I have here. Now, I’m a lot further along the road than I was, thanks to you.”

I would like to congratulate you on your course content and support. I have already recommended it to several other teachers and players alike. I am enjoying it also. Very practical and instant development. I also subscribe to your theory on reading.

This is an excellent collection of patterns — remember to practice in all 12 keys! I’ve been working on these for about 18 months now picking and choosing interesting patterns and incorporating them into my improvisation. This will keep anyone busy for years!

Jay- this one is lost of fun and it’s confirmation that your method works! I can play all of them without thinking; all of the exercises have created a direct connection between the ears and the fingers without interference from the conscious part of the brain. Even better, I can see that your approach can be applied to any set of scales. Thanks so much!
