I’m lucky to have studied with Jon in the early 90s when I attended Berklee. In short, I’m still learning from the materials and ideas he transmitted in our lessons. This book has all those ideas and more. It’s an incredible wealth of information.Buy the book and save yourself lots of money OR quit your job, move to Boston, enroll in Berklee (it’s like joining a priesthood of a 1000 frustrated guitar players), try to become a jazz-snob (growing a goatee will help), and maybe if you’re lucky, you’ll get one half-hour a week with Jon each semester. (He’s one of the most sought-after teachers at Berklee.)
BE WARNED: This book is not for beginners, it’s only for serious players and those that really really want to learn how to play well. If that’s you, then this book is an excellent guide.

…PS – The CD that comes with his book is great. The examples are very musical and inspired. So much so, that I contacted Jon (his email addy is in the book) and bought his “Dedications: Faces and Places” CD.
