Hi mate!! Nice first improv!!
The quality of your video is amazing! When practicing improvisation, and mostly when learning to improvise over jazz and fusion backings, I think that it's good to work on different concepts each day. In this Jam, I can see that you are exploring the scale shapes, and creating linear phrasing. It's very important to continue doing it to get more and more familiar with this type of phrasing. The main thing that this improvisation is lacking is to use wider intervals in your phrases. This is a characteristic of jazz and fusion players. Some concepts/techniques that helped me with this: - Using Hybrid Picking. - Superimposing triads and arpeggios. - String skipping. - Superimposing Pentatonics Have you ever tried these ideas?

Nice!! It's cool to see you playing this one!!
This lesson is full of small details. You are playing the whole thing tight and clean except by the last lick that has timing issues. I think that you need to continue playing this one in order to feel more comfortable with the different parts. You need to feel more familiar with the licks. And then, the following things to polish are: - Articulation: Notes duration. - Bending and Vibrato - Dynamics & groove How? Work again on smaller section trying to get the more of these elements. -------------------- My lessons

Hi mate!! Good stuff here!
I can hear that you are using all those concepts now in your jazz improvisation. There is still room to get more comfortable with them but this is definitely in the right direction. I would continue working on this ideas while adding this two elements: - Motif development - Incorporating some jazz licks into your vocabulary (you can borrow them from Stephane's GMC lessons) But again, those wider intervals and superimposing tricks are making your phrases more jazzy/fusion style. Keep going! The rhythm lesson is also on the right track, but it obviously need more work in order to make all those grooves sound tighter. At this point, I feel that you should dedicate some time to work on small blocks instead of playing the whole thing over and over. -------------------- My lessons

Cool!! This is getting better mate! Yes, those two parts need special attention so I would isolate the licks and work on them as exercises. These are also cool licks to incorporate into your own vocabulary when improvising.
Besides that, there is room to polish articulation and other details but this is much better now. You are on the right track! -------------------- My lessons
