Quotes from some of Garrison's colleagues:

"Garrison Fewell has long been a hero to the jazz guitar community. Read this book and you'll find out why"

Jim Hall, acclaimed jazz guitarist, composer and arranger

"Garrison Fewell presents and demystifies many of the essential elements and techniques of jazz guitar, with useful and esaily applied examples. he gets the player's hands, ears, and mind all involved. I wish this book had been around thirty years ago!"

Howard Alden, jazz guitarist

"Garrison's concept of using guide tones and intervals instead of 'running scales' is very impoprtant. Recommended for all who want to master 'inside' as well as 'outside' playing."

John Tchicai, author of Advice to Improvisers
