Student Comment
“My name is Jim Brown. I am retired and have been playing guitar since I was a child. I have had a very difficult time learning jazz improvisation. I started the Conti Ticket to Improv course about six months ago and have to say that I wish I found this course much earlier in my guitar career. I have tried many guitar books and courses in the past, with little success. Most courses emphasize theory, scales and licks. The Conti method uses whole songs and melodic lines. None of the other methods I have tried in the past have given me the access to the melodic lines needed to learn jazz guitar. In particular, this method covers melodic lines that run four measures, or more, you learn by playing actual jazz solos. The Conti approach is ideal for people trying to learn jazz who feel like their progress has stalled. Mr. Conti is one of the true New York Italian jazz guitar pros of the sixties. For those of you on a limited budget like myself, the cost of the DVDs in the Ticket To Improv series is ridiculously low, especially when using the new streaming option. Now is the time to get instruction from a jazz great before the opportunity is gone.”

“I cannot tell you how happy I am with this material. I have been playing guitar since I was 15 but it was only last year that I developed an interest in Jazz guitar. I began searching for a teacher and ended up taking classes with a great teacher out of Philadelphia. That went really well. However, I found that I had to supplement a lot from websites and other sources. I picked up some things here and there but it wasn’t until I found Robert Conti’s material that I felt like I really found what I was looking for. I do want to understand theory but I want it to come to me organically from playing and not from just studying and practicing scales, modes, arpeggios, etc. So, I ordered Ticket to Improv, Vol. 1 and The Comping Expo among other titles. In about 3 weeks, studying the material and focusing on Autumn Leaves, I learned the solo from Ticket to Improv and I learned the comping from The Comping Expo with all the wonderful chord substitutions. The way the chord options are presented in The Comping Expo is GENIUS. The result…. Well listen for yourself. I recorded this track with a backing track (piano, bass, drums). All the guitar parts are me using Mr. Conti’s ideas and some of my own. Please share this with Mr. Conti and let him know that, thanks to him, for the first time since I started learning to play Jazz Guitar, I feel like I actually sound like a Jazz Player. THANK YOU ROBERT CONTI!”

Student Comment
After years of frustration learning to play jazz in college and with other instructional material, I can’t tell you how gratifying it is to be able to play professional level jazz guitar solos and chord melodies. When jazz became institutionalized in schools it somehow became a very intimidating and highly ineffective way to learn jazz. I cannot put into words how soul destroying it was to go watch jazz players in the local pubs knowing that I wasn’t able to do this after years of practice.
I’m a shredder and have played guitar for 29 years. I also teach rock, metal and blues soloing but jazz had this aura of difficulty, intimidation, elitism, years of boring scale practice, etc leading to a serious lack of progress and disappointment. Thankfully I found Robert Conti’s website and DVDs and not only is his method highly effective, he also spends time debunking the myths surrounding jazz and provides a lot of encouragement. He’s not just a teacher in my opinion, he’s also a mentor and a coach. I’ve bought almost the entire library of products by Robert Conti and it’s an amazingly educational and emotional experience. I also have to say that the customer service and support is the best I’ve ever seen.

I would like to thank Mr. Conti for all of his products. I own four of his Source Code books, all of the Ticket to Improv, and two of the chord melody DVD’s and I’ll be purchasing more in the near future. My guitar has never sounded so good!
