Jazz Guitar Story? Please Share it!

This website is all about learning music, and more specifically jazz guitar. As you may understand, most of the content comes only from my own jazz knowledge and how to play music.

Since the whole online experience tends to become more and more community oriented, I now would like to turn the tables around ...

... and let YOU be in the spotlight!

I would love to hear about you : it's time for my cherished visitors to share knowledge, experiences and opinions!

Let me know what your #1 jazz guitar tip is, discuss your latest practice routine or share your enthusiasm about a recent concert you attended... anything goes! (-: All you need is the desire to share it.

If you love jazz and the guitar as much as I do, simply become a contributor instead of passive observer. I really do want to hear about you... and your jazz guitar story may certainly be of interest to other visitors too!

So, share you jazz guitar story, anecdote, tip, concert review (or other) here...

Due to a large number of contributions by visitors, I've organized them into categories. Please share your jazz guitar story in the most appropriate category below.
