 Jazz Warm-Ups for Jazz Guitar Book - Mel Bay

This book contains 30 jazz guitar warm-ups that are intended to improve any guitarists right and left hand dexterity.  They are challenging, jazz-oriented exercises in concept and in execution and primarily most suitable for players at intermediate to advanced levels.  I use these studies throughout my teaching--in university and secondary school jazz classes and in private lessons.

Some of these studies offer suggestions, including left hand fingering, on how to play them though you are encouraged to experiment.  Some are in 4/4 time but some are in odd meters like 6/4 and 10/4 to exploit a given position on the guitar.

Most of the studies involve a musical premise; however, some are based on a geometric shape.  Remember too that correct practice and repetition will help assure mastery of the etudes and their application in your playing.
