Assembly Lines raises the bar on TrueFire's top-ranked Jazzed Blues video series from Mark Stefani. This innovative 2 CD-ROM sequel takes you on a sonic learning tour through the funky rhythm and blues stylings and fretboard concepts of top players like George Benson, Kenny Burrell and Grant Green.

Assembly Lines breaks down the 12-bar blues progression into logical sections and then builds your vocabulary of versatile jazzed blues phrases, which can be played over I, IV and V-IV-I changes. Phrases are then twisted and turned rhythmically and harmonically so that you can apply them tastefully anywhere in a blues progression.

Once your vocabulary of phrases is up to snuff, you'll assemble the phrases into four full-chorus solos that will turn heads at the next session or jam. Assembly Lines is a must-have course for any serious student of blues and jazz guitar.

Assembly Lines features 40 video lessons, text overviews, notation, interactive Power Tab and is presented in TrueFire’s multi-media video player for Windows and Mac, which features zoom, frame advance, looping and other useful instructional functions.

Here's how Assembly Lines is presented …

Jazzed blues phrases, organized by sections of a blues progression, are first performed and then broken down note-for-note with related harmonic insight.

Students then learn how to alter the rhythmic and harmonic structure of the phrases and apply them in a variety of jazzed blues feels and prevailing changes.

Finally, students learn how to connect the phrases and form complete solos and then expand the solos using various harmonic approaches and tricks of the trade.

All phrases and solos feature a rhythm backing track for students to practice over and help nail the material.

TrueFire's instructional player puts video, text descriptions, supplemental tips, standard notation and power tab all at your fingertips.
