Glad to see that people are using my copy of Allen's Kreutzer. His fingerings were just a starting place. We spent a lot of time identifying different fingerings on the etudes.

Janek Gwizdala has some good books that has helped me a lot. The "Iconic lines" shows a lot of examples on how famous players played on for example a ii-V-I and tells you the context of it in an exciting way. It's written for bass, but most of the lines themselves aren't bass lines anyway.

Brazilian music it's great to play as a etudes especially choro. Pixinguinha music for example. Also Piazolla's music helps to figure it out some interesting fingerings and technical challenges. Don't forget other baroque composers like Telemann and Vivaldi. Even renaissce music it's so helpful to play two or more lines at the same time. There's a lot of funny staff to develop tecnique.

Thank You Mikko. I have the Barry Galbraith: "Daily Studies In Melodic and Harmonic Minor" and his "The Fingerboard Workbook".The Berklee Series Guitar: "Classical Studies for Pick-Style Guitar " has a great combination of Kreutzer Etudes,Carulli Etudes and Bach Inventions.I consider "Linear Expressions" an etude book.Since learning all the lines in that book, playing them everyday ,and tweaking the lines as you suggested in that lesson,it is (IMO) hands down one of the best line playing books written for jazz guitar .

Fantastic video once again 👌

Years ago, in the 80's, took a lesson with John Scofield. He told me the price he was asking was a lot to pay for basically just jamming with him, but I'd be welcome to continue with him if I wanted to (paying to "jam"). It really wasn't a lot of money for such an opportunity, and despite my financial limitations at the time, I wish I continued with him. Sadly, at the that age I didn't understand the value of making friends with the great players and just playing with them - or that this was even an option for me. The one thing he told me during the lesson, besides just playing a tune or two with me, was to check out the Partitas and Sonatas by JS Bach! It's great to hear you play the G Minor Presto! Over the years, I've worked quite a bit on the B minor Partita, but haven't tried the G Minor which is lovely and sounds incredibly useful for Jazz language facility. Thank you, Mikko!

The editing in of the people you’re referencing is a great touch. top notch quality Mikko

I really appreciate you taking the time to edit in the footage of each of the guitarists you reference in the video. That takes attention to detail and care.

Although not written down, Julian Lage wrote etudes, maybe there are scores somewhere, also I would recommend the works of Leo Brouwer, he wrote a lot if interesting studies that have some value in terms of textures and rythmns etc.

Great video. The Barry Galbraith books are good. There are also the Wohlfahrt studies, a bit similar to Kreuzer.

What about all the Charlie Parker /Bebop heads ..Donna Lee..Ornithology ..Night in Tunisia .with Sax break -Parker .Paganini..24Caprices..THANK YOU MikKo GREAT SUGGESTIONS

Thank you mikko

Great video. For etudes check out "Jazz Guitar Etudes" by Greg Fishman. Solos are played by Mike Allemana wo is great player in Chicago. They did another great book together called "Hip licks for guitar." Great vocab.

Love you mikko, I always wanted to learm Bach but I didnt realise I can read violin music sheet dang it's genious thank you

I lived in San Diego for 20 years. Peter sprague is a genius.

Wow I love Bach etudes and have never thought of playing these. Thank you!

Thanks for the great video. Lots of good ideas.

tim miller has some very nice etudes but on his online page.

There´s a jazz etudes book by Alan de Mause, I think you might like it!

Hey, Mikko. I appreciate the recommendations. The Bach Sonatas and Partitas and MI Ultimate Guitar Technique are two that I use, and they’re great. The latter is particular useful for lessons. I enjoyed your version of the Gm Presto from Bach Sonatas and Partitas. It inspired me to work up an arrangement of my own. I’m a bit of a guitar book junky, so I enjoy your reviews of guitar books. Thanks!

Thanks for the great video. Currently, I am practicing Ben Eunson's transcriptions of some of Bach's partitas for violin and it's an interesting journey 🙂

Maravilha de aula professor!! Show de bola!!

This is not a warmup book, but why not. Joseph Viola technique of the saxophone vol. 2 (chord studies) is a book about chords, arpegios and appogiatures with some etudes / examples in all keys.

Thanks Mikko Great video and very informative

Fantastic!!!

I couldn't find Jazz etudes, so i'm using BeBop heads, Paganini caprices, Piazzolla and Barrios pieces. I'll add Bach and start playing with genius drummer, Thanks Again!

I don't want to put words in your mouth, but sooner or later there's gonna have to be an episode about practical book shelves for jazz guitar literature too... 😅

Hi again, Mikko. A good book for etude like pieces is Jazz Improvisation: The Best Way To Develop Solos Over Classic Changes by Sam Most; ( Warner Bros. Publications). It was recommended to me by the late Frank Quinn, a popular jazz guitar teacher and educator who ran The Frank Quinn School Of Music in Montreal for many decades. No tab or fingerings in the book, but the material is great!

Best video ever

I really needed a scalloped strat through a Marshall for the Bach. 😉

My suggestions: picking techniques by al di meola; patterns for improvisation by Oliver Nelson and last but not least Contrast and Continuity in jazz improvisation by Mike Rossi. Grazie Maestro

did you have a video for rhythm guitar etudes or chord etudes?

I bought pat metheny etudes but my classical guitar doesnt allow me to play higher fret sadly 😢

What book would you recommend for learning to read music and translate that to the guitar fretboard?
