“Hi, my name is David Garcia and I'm a member of the Chase Guitar Academy community. In school, I had first heard about chase through YouTube, just kind of surfing for jazz improvisational type topics for discussion. And I was really impressed when I stumbled upon Chase's uploads to YouTube where he would explain a theoretical concept and show you how to and would break it down for you and allowed you to then take that and then implement it in your own lines, in your own studies. And Chase takes that kind of conceptual learning model and develops it into way more elaborate and intricate topics. And he does it in such a way where you don't have to abandon necessarily previous jazz knowledge that you've acquired through the years of your studies. He has a strong foundation academically, but more important, he's got real world bandstand experience and the ability to communicate and explain topics that he covers in his class. And you can totally just run with it. And what's nice about it too is he shows you how to learn so that you can develop your own lines on your own, taking these concepts and implementing them in a similar fashion. If you're anything like me, you're always looking for the next topic or the next knowledge item to learn or further enhance your jazz knowledge. And I was always looking like, for a silver bullet, like there's got to be a way that this all fits together. But there isn't really necessarily a silver bullet. But if you've got the right material in front of you and you have a well informed, educated instructor that's able to convey knowledge, I mean that's as close to a silver bullet as you're going to get. There's nothing out there that you're going to learn that's going to turn you instantly into a George Benson overnight. But there is somebody out there that has the methodology in place with classes and topics and subjects, and collaborations with other world renowned instructors, guitar instructors and players. And that's the jazz community that Chase has put together. So if you have a chance to take it or if you're on the fence, I highly suggest you take it because it's well, money well spent and it'll definitely up your game. Peace.”
