That Bert Ligon book is great! I used to hate soloing I found that it didn't matter how much I transcribed and worked on soloist never came out in my playing and I found what is was playing was very angular and lacked a lot of melodic material ie the fingers just went for it. So One thing...

Chet baker is good also. He plays standards and uses very cliche lines i.e. 3 to 7 resolutions bebop licks etc.

Yeah I had to do a similar process when I was at jazz school. I will of then make a loop of the solo and listen to it for a week or so on my iPod and in my car so I really know the solo before I start transcribing.

Cool thanks for the info, I hadn't heard the term lateral humbucker either so was a bit confused. Anyone got a set I'd like to know what they sound like vs a set of nj4se

I've seen a couple sets of these Seymour Duncan/Fodera Lateral Humbucking Bass Pickup come up on ebay link to auction Can anyone tell me how a lateral humbucker works compared to a "other" humbuckers or are there any other Lateral Humbucking Pickups on the market?

I'm a jazz student and have been really struggling with my soloing, I really need to transcribing more as a core part of my practice routine. I'm after some suggestions of some easy jazz solo's to transcribe that aren't played on the bass. I've done a few of the solo's off Kind of Blue...

Sorry to hijack, but does this implying that it is coming out on DVD in the future?

Not hard at all do a quick youtube search or look on the BIAB website.

Sorry, I should have given you some background info. I'm a Jazz student I understand alot of the theory that goes along with soloing but am really having trouble getting it into my playing and breaking out of the root note habit. Is something like this the way to go or do you think there may be...

Has anyone use this book and got a review for I'd be interested to know what you thought before i spend my money.

6th is nice can sound like an inverted 3rd

does it matter just ignore the high c string
