These two "mini" jazz guitar lessons on the min 7 flat 5 chord are my test postings of a series of jazz guitar "tips" that I'll be posting in the weeks to come.

  • Of course they are enharmonic. But many people starting out try to use the "A flat major scale"approach and end up accenting A flat chord tones. So, yes, if you can hear all the notes re oriented to a Gmin 7 flat 5 chord ok. But, why not learn the arpeggio as a point of reference.

  • @JazzChordArt Yes it would as long as you don't hang on the Ab root. Also try Bb Dorian, or Eb bebop dominant.

  • Slower from 2:05 please

  • What are these passing tone scales you refer to?

    Thanks

  • as a headling jazz vocalist I find that the gminor seven flat five is fine,... but you should really play more open position chords ..... ...Seriously this is a a great post and a good idea. Looking forward to more like it fro the Clay!

  • Since Gm7b5 is the leading tone of Ab major, why not just use Ab scale? Wouldn't that simplify it?
