Endorsements:

”Randy Vincent is an extraordinary musician who also happens to play the guitar. With this book, he gives a real life approach to voicing chords on the instrument that will allow both the student and the professional a clear way to illuminate harmonies in the most sensible and transparent way. With almost every student I have had I stressed the issue of getting the most mileage out of the least notes whenever possible. This books lays it out in clear and concise terms.”

— Pat Methany

“What a great book! Tandy Vincent has given us huge amount of material we guitar players can use when we’re listening and reacting to what’s going on around us. This is so practical and so rare! Thanks, Randy!.”

”This book is full of essential information for jazz guitarists at any level. It’s beautifully put together. Very logical and easy to understand. A wonderful book.”

— Mike Stern

”I have dreamt of this book existing for years – a thoughtful and clear explanation of what it means to dive into jazz guitar when you already have a background in other styles of music. Randy is masterful in breaking down so many topics that often feel so daunting and inaccessible, making them approachable, enjoyable, and furthermore, helping the student to create foundation for mastery within the jazz domain.”

— Julian Lage
