+1 for the need to know I VI II V I.
Also in a big jazz band when you comp on a guitar you often do not play the full voicing for the chord. Because jazz uses extended chords so much comping in a big band often involves accentuating/underlining the extension by comping on the top four/five strings and leaving the root note to the bass player. If you have enough time maybe look in to/brush up in voice leading harmonisation. For solos as Ben says you really do need to know your scales inside and out. Knowing the arpeggios that relate to particular chords is also a big help. A great example - but one that is bloody hard to pull off (at least I fond it bloody hard) - is Coltraine's Giant Steps - fast and with a lot of movement. A really good example of a great guitar playing here is Mike Stern's version. If you have all this down already then think about chord substitutions, rhythm, chromatics, leading tones, articulation, octaving, Lenny Breau type harmonics, sequencing, playing 'outside' and so on - the list goes on and on.

+1: jazz chordal stuff is muy dificil. And some of the stretches for extended voicings are, well geting the fingers down and in time ...
Solo comes easier I think if you listen to sax lines a bit and maybe practice those. (Or maybe that's because I'm not so much a guitar player as a frustrated sax player ) Cheers, Tony -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.

I'll try and put up a I II VI V I chordal progression on the collaborations Andrew. Not sure when though but hopefully not too long. Then any one interested can have a go at blowing over the changes.
