My old guitar teacher Tom Hynes has an instructional video - I've got a clip!

This is from my site but the video is so good I thought I would share it here...

Tom was my guitar teacher in College, and much of how I play and teach the guitar is informed by those few years that I was his student. Those of you who are doing my lessons or working from my book are (in a sense) "second generation" Tom Hynes students...


This is a great video lesson on constructing chords from your open E, A and C shapes...really good stuff!

The lesson is a sample from his DVD "The Developing Jazz Guitarist"...check it out here!

Wow, Mark, the man knows his stuff. He does fly through the theory pretty fast though, but it's presented well and understandable.

I think there is an assumption that you know basic theory, and have the book that comes with the DVD.

He was a huge influence on me as a young musician and much of what I do today still has its roots in what Tom taught me either directly in lessons or indirectly through example...
