Solo Acoustic Jazz Playbook

5 Jazz Standards for Solo Acoustic Guitar

Send the band home, put the arch-top away, and grab your acoustic — in this Solo Acoustic Jazz Playbook from Mimi Fox, you’ll learn how to play solo acoustic guitar arrangements for It Don’t Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing), Take The A Train, Night & Day, Fruitvale Avenue Stop, and Getaway Blues.

”Each arrangement includes a set of 7 video lessons: an overview, a Melody lesson, a Chords, and Harmony lesson, a Soloing Approaches lesson, and then 3 Performance Studies; a Basic Melody version, an Embellished version, and a version demonstrating how I would play it on stage.”

Mimi designed the course with a “one-size-fits-all” curricular approach. Each arrangement is presented in a progressive series of lessons starting with overviews and demonstrations of the basic chords and melody — ideal for players just starting their solo guitar learning journey.

Next set of lessons illustrate how to “jazz up” the melody and harmony with embellishments. Next up, soloing approaches with lots of demonstrations and explanations. Mimi punctuates the set of lessons with a full-length performance of the arrangement, which includes all of the elements she taught in the preceding lessons.

You’ll have all of TrueFire’s advanced learning tools at your finger tips to personalize your workspace and learn at your own pace.

You can loop, slow down, or speed up any section of a lesson. Plus, all of the tab and notation is synced to the videos for the optimal learning experience. You’ll also get tab and standard notation files to print out and Guitar Pro files as well.

Grab your acoustic, and let’s go solo with Mimi Fox!
