Description

Overview Video

New to arranging chord melody? The Chord Melody Assembly Line book/DVD will get you started immediately.  As most are aware, Robert Conti is well known for his ability as a soloist who can confidently step in front a rhythm section and peel paint off the walls at ridiculous tempos, with total authority.  However, in addition to his reputation as a bop player, Robert Conti is also well documented as a highly successful solo jazz guitarist. An exquisite sound and a repertoire over three thousand songs keeps him in demand for numerous “high end� private functions in Las Vegas and Los Angeles. His stellar credentials also include a ten year engagement in a luxurious Southern California hotel.

From Lesson One, you’ll discover how easy it is to actually start assembling a working collection of chord melody arrangements of your favorite songs. In addition to learning the “assembly line” protocol, Conti takes it a step further and walks you through three complete songs.

If you’re ready to learn the art of solo guitar, this DVD is your opportunity to learn from a working Pro, who actually performs nearly every night of the week. Don’t settle for anything less than this level of quality instruction from a bona fide Pro.

We are frequently asked the difference between The Formula and The Chord Melody Assembly Line.  Simply stated, if you’re just starting out with wanting to create chord melodies from a lead sheet or fake book, start with this product, then move onto The Formula which thoroughly covers Robert’s approach to advanced reharmonization.

Chord Melody Assembly Line Includes:

  • Full size 8.5″ x 11″ Booklet
  • 4 Hour DVD
  • Easy to read chord grids

The Chord Melody Assembly Line has opened up the world of chord melody playing for me. I'm a not-so-gifted amateur and playing guitar is my primary form of relaxation. As a physician, I'm too busy for formal lessons. Until now, I've struggled with chord melody playing. The Chord Melody Assembly Line...

I recently purchased Bob Conti's Chord Melody Assembly Line. And I can honestly say that I've learned more from that book in three weeks than I have from others in three years. Passages that previously baffled me are now easily handled. This man really knows how to teach (not to mention play!) jaz...

I received The Formula and Chord Melody Melody Assembly Line. It is a pity that I did not start off with these two books as they are basically the most important. They are exceptionally good books and I want to thank Robert for these works.

Thank you for what appears to be another great year or so of learning and refining coming up. I believe it was around May 2011 when I first received the Chord Melody Assembly Line and The Formula (and the rest of the Source Code series). So, after about a year and a half of regular (and delightful...
