Description

The time-tested and acknowledged pathway to become a skilled improvisor is to play your instrument at every jam session or other opportunity that becomes available. That’s exactly how the early greats learned their craft, simply by playing jazz, not wasting time talking about modes, scales or unimportant activities that prevented them from actually playing their instruments. As seen in 25 prior DVDs, the core success of the Robert Conti approach is his ability to teach the jazz language (improv) at the street level, where it actually began.

If you’re an entry level jazz guitarist such as a blues or rock player trying to make the crossover to jazz, Ticket To Improv will take you on one of most exciting and productive musical events of your life. Very soon, you will be impressing your friends with your new playing skills.

As in each of his learning products, once again, Conti delivers another ā€œMotherlode!ā€ How? By teaching you exactly how to start playing an arsenal of lines over the chord progressions to three ā€œmust knowā€ tunes that are played in every real life jam session. More importantly, after you learn the first three tunes, he will also teach you how to quickly begin reshaping those lines for usage in other tunes.

Volume 3 Subject Lesson Songs:

  • 12 Bar Blues
  • All Blues
  • Watermelon Man
  • Bonus Jam over a Conti original, “The Rummy!”

Ticket To Improv, Volume 3 Includes:

  • Printable PDF of lesson solos in notation & tablature
  • MIDI files of single note solos & rhythm sections

DVD Running Time: 4 Hours

I posted elsewhere that I tried learning jazz guitar about 12 years ago, but gave up due to lack of time. I got several of the Conti DVDs, but barely got started. Now that I am retired with plenty of time, I plan to get started again with the Conti DVDs. What I like about them is it gets you playing...

Wow! - This stuff is getting better all the time! I can't believe how the barriers are falling - It's like Bob said: "All sorts of doors will open, and all sorts of lights will start to go on" - They are! My right hand fingers are pretty much automatic now, and my performance passable on almost 3 so...

For lack of a better word, Robert, you're awesome, thank you, I've been looking for material like this for a long time. I knew there had to be a different way, and this is it! As I am not getting any younger, in short, I am grateful you do what you do. Would like to meet you sometime. Best Wishes, A...

I have the TTI Volumes 1, 2, and 3.. The chord melodies that Mr Conti offers (free might I add), IMHO are the best out there. They're easy to understand, and they are always hip.. If there is a better way to get this quality of teaching, I've yet to find it.. Thanx for all you do!

As a 57 yr old player for over 45 yrs, my guitar playing was STUCK in the middle of the 1970's rock era...PERIOD. While I absolutely love the chord melody style of playing I increasingly assumed it was completely out of my reach. I was so tired of the 1st position rock chords, I had simply reduced m...

There's an easy way to do anything. What you need is someone else who truly understands what's going on, and tells you first what you NEED to know, and not EVERYTHING you could know all at once. As we all know, Bob excels at this. I don't know how paint is made, but I still manage to do a good job p...

As seen in the title the origin of this (as with most Conti DVDs) was one of requests. On the opening of this volume Robert talks of how he got "bucket loads of requests" for a blues DVD and so here it is. I loved this volume. .. tasty blues in a jazz tradition. I particularly like the formatting th...

I would also like to once again tell you that Bob Conti is my guiding light, through the murky waters of guitar instruction out here, what a wonderful person to be so open and offer to us mere mortals out here in guitar land his talents! I listen to Jazz every day and of all the players and all the ...

It's sort of like the "Wax on - Wax off" method that Mr. Miyagi taught Ralph Macchio in the Karate Kid where he showed him all the motions without the theory by making him do ordinary chores like waxing a car or painting a fence with certain arm motions. And when the time came for Ralph to spring in...

Starting on the "Watermelon Man" solo from TTI volume 3. Going back to "Precision Technique" and playing things faster and cleaner than I used to. About time, right? Geez, I think I've been a sucky / sloppy guitar player for longer than anyone ever has who actually got good. (And I'm actually gettin...
