There are other guitar teachers that I watch, but Jack is the one I actually want to sound like. So smooth.

Jack Ruch is my spirit animal.

Sometimes your lessons are so personal to me that it feels as if it's just the two of us.

I learned this exercise from my private instructor when i was in music school. It's the best way to learn to connect arpeggios. Great tune you've selected to practice this.

Thank you Jack for helping us improve our musical language. Greetings from Uruguay!!! everyone 🙋‍♂️

You are a great teacher man. So glad I found your channel.

Great! I 'lost' my guitarplaying, .. and ths is the way back for me and my guitar

The course is amazing Jack!

Great! Thank you, Jack!

This is pure gold, thank you so much Jack!

This stuff is so useful! Thanks Jack 🤘

I loved the explanations!!!

That’s a great lesson. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you!! Great lessons always!!

Thank you. My teacher was talking me through this yesterday, and today he sent me your video to drive the point home. Appreciate the time and effort you put in to make playing more enjoyable to everyone. ❤

Learned a lot about lead from this lesson. Thank you.

Absolut lovely! Very helpful! Thanks for your time!

Tomo calls it 'Guitar Wisdom.' But here on this channel we call it 'Ruch Wisdom'. 😉 Top shelf lesson, Jack. 🫡

This is the best explanation I’ve had so far, Thank You.

Mister Mellow Tasty Chops - almost makes me believe I could actually learn how to play a little jazz

Thanks for sharing this stuff, it is just brilliant knowledge to have, much appreciated.

well said and well done jack..

Thanks a ton man. You’re helping me get out of a rut I’ve been stuck in for a little while now. Been out of work but I’ll definitely check out your course when I get back on my feet. Love your playing and approach on the fretboard.

Outstanding!!!

Great lesson 👍👍👍

I'm using this for mandolin and its helping me so much. Hard to find this info for my instrument easily so this is a massive help Jack. Much appreciated

You made soloing sound so much simpler. You've given me the guidelines that I should've known about. I now know what to practice. Thank you so so much Mr. Ruch!

As always- super cool😊

Awesome sir !

Great lesson Jack, you have a wonderful way of gently explaining quite complex theory in an unpatronising way. Thanks mate!

Fabulous thanks a million for that 👍🎸

Fantastic light just went on at the end of the tunnel...thanks!

A truly great lesson, it gives me something to practice for the next few years.

Excellent guitar settings - from clean and smooth to beautiful driven tone when pushed - what a balance! And half of that is in your fingers :) Fantastic.

Great Tasty lesson. Fundamental Elements of Jazz.

Really nice lesson

Nice lesson using Just the Two of Us as he example . Love that tune😊

A most excellent explanation. I’ve been working at this for some time. I found that transcribing the arpeggios/chord tones I’ll use for each progression relieves some of the cognitive load of trying to visualize and play in time. Also, calling out the chord tones-though a challenge-does help. The one big challenge I’m working on now is listening for the bass notes. Otherwise, I’m “playing the timing,” instead of “playing the changes.” All those advisories to spend time with “ear training” are beginning to make sense. Lots of good stuff here. Makes me proud to support Jack on Patreon! Cheers!

very cool man ... as a horn player first it always arpeggios ... love your approach

i like your video and you are one of my favorite .

Wicked Jack 🤘

So many others have tried to teach the same thing, but I still did not see the path. Having Jack literally "spell it out" has helped me so much. I am enjoying his course "magic of triads rhythm edition" and plan to follow it up with the course for soloing

Great lesson. Thanks

Great lesson Jack, that was just two much tasty stuff.

Nicely done .. very helpful Mr. Mellow Tasty Chops

Fabulous. You've targeted the topic that has confused me the most -- how to link arpeggios together to actually make music. Thank you for opening the door to a solution!

Just Two of Us progression.❤

53 years old started guitar in 1985 somewhere along the line I realized I was just playing scales and licks as fast as possible. Maybe it's the era of guitar I grew up in but it's always felt very lacking, now that I'm old I like jazz infusion so I'm having to figure all this stuff out now and it's so much more satisfying

Thanks, Jack. It seems simple, but it sounds so good! And, i like the fact that you can take an unlimited number of routes. For instance, you can start at the bottom, ascend but skip a note and catch it after. So, you're really ascending & descending in the same chord before moving ro next. I like to change rhe phrasing as well.

What a fantastic video have a wonderful day Jack also tomorrow is my friends birthday also my birthday ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊

When I first started playing guitar, I took two lessons from two different teachers. The first guy taught me the Pentatonix scale and the second guy taught me to see diatonic scale. I did what you did and map them out on the neck in the diagram. Funny that we both learned the first two scales the same except you added the flat five to your Pentatonix scale I think. About the cage system. I think the reason for the name is you take an open C chord, then move up three Fretz and make the A shape then go up three more and make the G shape. The next natural shape is E and then D. What’s that spell? Caged.

Great lesson, and it's exactly what I need since I don't sound musical. Hey, I was born with two left ears, so I'm trying. This really helps. But I've become a music theory geek Arpeggiating the 2-5-1 with seventh notes. This is out of my pay grade for now, I'm still learning the fretboard with triads and using the string groups. Baby steps. These are Authentic Cadences. If it finishes on the root note in the soprano, it's a Perfect Authentic Cadence (PAC). Otherwise it's an Imperfect Authentic Cadence (IAC). I'm learning this with thoroughbase terminolody, root position, first inversion or 6, second inversion 6/4. Sevenths add another element, root position 7, first inversion 6/5, second inversion 4/3, third inversion 4/2. My music teacher says the most satisfying songs end up with the PAC, so when I practice this I end up with the tonic as a 6, but when I add sevenths it will be a 6/5. It's a musical tradition going back centuries, so it's worth it to study it, IMHO.

The Best! What are the best notes to start and end on? Not the fifth or the seventh? But what about starting notes? One of the best songs ever written!

I've got to practice I've got to practice I've got to practice

Do you give private lessons if so please respond with link Regards JL

Jack Thanks for this music lesson because if there is a really horrific sounding note that definitely should not be voiced during a live performance with people listening, Guess who plays that note ? Hmmm I will give you three guesses and the first two are wrong!!😮

Thank you ... Bookmark to self 1:25, 8:37

😮😮😮😮

Arpeggios are easy until you voicelead. Then its painful asf, but its THE game changer

how in the world am i supposed to remember all of this. especially the transitions. fukk

Dude you didn’t tell us why Dm7, GM7 and C7 ? . We know it music theory but just telling us those cores are commonly used is not clear…

Dang pitch a course 30 seconds in without even demonstrating a note… bro…
