The is also a wealth of jazz instructional videos on YouTube. The advantage of video is you can actually watch the players position their hands on the guitar, piano or wind instrument while they play. I learned a lot from observing various jazz & blues guitarists right hand technique and how they use a guitar pick or their fingers in relation to their left hand work on the fretboard. I was surprised to find out that most of the great guitarists use all four fingers and the thumb of their right hand to play because the flat-picking technique limits the range of your playing.
