The guitar is first and foremost a rhythm instrument.

This book expands on the chords and rhythms included in Level 2: Barre Chords, focusing on the most advanced chords of the guitar, often reserved for jazz music. Jazz will require a vast knowledge of chord shapes, including major/minor/dominant 7th, 9th, 11th, and 13th chords, along with augmented, diminished, and altered chords. Strumming patterns include a variety of options that may be applied to both swing and latin jazz songs.
