Those are not jazz chords and you are not using jazz comping rythms, so????

[illdoitagain]

those are all jazz chords (4 note chords) due to the added 7th as opposed to triad chords that contain only 3 notes. comping can be in almost any rhythm you like, thats why its called comping. He is not using the more common swing feel but this playing is designed to lay under the lead melody. It is most definitely jazz, though i wouldn't

it call it advanced

"It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing" -Duke E.

Strumming and picking very straight so no jazz 'feel'; chord voicings are all over the neck (ie no voice leading) so no jazz 'sound'.

This is Pop music and it is a step towards learning to play jazz. To think you are playing advanced jazz because you add some sevenths to your vanilla chord voicings is self-deception. Okay for a neophyte maybe, but "a professional instructor of advanced jazz" should expect criticism on this.

[illdoitagain]

cant argue with you here, however I'm wouldn't put too much emphasis on voice leading for this simple rythm, after all its not chord melody and a lead guitar over the top played in jazz 8ths could easily make those chords pop. The big mistake we both agree an is the "advanced part" this lesson falls into the beginner category. Why no vids from you? you obviously know your stuff (better than me anyway) would love to hear you play;)
