Two: An introduction and thorough study of ?Rhythm Chord??the essential three-note voicings that every guitarist must know for accompanying small blues groups to jazzy big bands. Three: A comprehensive series of twelve-bar chord progressions that range from a basic three chord blues to the most advanced, multi-chord jazz arrangements.
