Gypsy & Jazz - Guitar Academy by Yaakov Hoter

“This is not a lot of money to pay for the knowledge you gain from this course. The lessons are clear, informative and inspiring. I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to sound good with just themselves and a guitar as it opens up the fret board immensely. ”

“Yaakov gives you building blocks, suggestions for practice, live examples, etudes, substitutions, and walks you through the process of learning new songs. He doesn't just teach you licks, but gives you the tools for approaching new materials on your own. Everything is broken down into simple (sometimes deceptively so) chunks onto which you can build and expand. It's definitely worthwhile to take the material slowly and make sure you get it fully under your fingers--which can happen long after you get it mentally--before moving onto the next section. I can't recommend it enough.”

“This has taken my playing to another level!! There is a lot of material here. I have taken my time and really worked the lessons and learned the concepts in the lessons and I have gotten great results....and I'm not even done with the course. In depth lessons explained clearly and logically. I also purchased the 3 Kings course and it is great too. This is the best material I have seen on learning GJ. The reason is the theory is explained clearly not just learning licks and songs but the harmonic structure, scales and arps. I have been playing for a long time in other styles and my advice to other players starting out is to learn your theory right away, you will improve quicker in the long run...this course is a great start and has enough material for a year for someone starting out. ”

“If your like me and have really struggled to get to grips with improvising this is the course for you. It really opened my eyes to how simple it is to start that long journey successfully through the use of such a simple concept of triads in three positions for each chord. Magic in deed!”

“This is such a swinging lesson, and if you have been doing your homework, you will be able to play this solo straight away.Yaakov has a complete program that has prepped me me for success. Just remember to PUUUUUSSSHHH”

“The best improvisation lesson ”

“Yaakov teaches you everything you need to know to become a sound musician in gypsy swing. The technical aspects are covered in great detail and he helps you with any questions you have along the way. ”

“I now hear the triads all over Django's playing and realize how simply beautiful they are. They're great landmarks for getting around the fretboard and I just can't help visualizing them while playing arpeggios, solos and melodies - all the time. This package thoroughly demystifies solo playing and it's so much fun learning in the context of songs and having the tracks to play along with! ”

“fantastic lesson again from yaakov. using this triad method to play solos is a real effective way of creating melodic solos that will inspire you to want to keep playing. lessons are easy to understand for the beginner but also very imformative for experienced players. the triad system helps you to keep it simple but still create amazing sounding solos. well done again yaakov.”

“I purchased the Magic of Triads a few weeks ago and it has been absolutely amazing for my playing in a very short space of time. I've found it incredibly useful to understand how to 'really' learn songs and start improvising in a way that sounds interesting and melodic. I've found it far more useful than many other gypsy jazz lessons incl. the Rosenberg Academy, DC Music, JTC, Soundslide and plenty others - those were packed with licks, but no understanding for me. Your course is different. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone serious about improving their technique, improvisation and overall tone. Kyle, gypsy picker from Melbourne Australia”
