Sheets of Sound for Guitar is a set of books based on my musical philosophy. This involves approaching the instrument in a new and different way. These methods are not based on any type of picking method and are not technique books. Instead, they are centered around the concept of playing the music you hear rather than playing the familiar patterns that fall under your fingers. This approach is based on years of study with folks such as Pat Martino, Dennis Sandole, Howard Roberts, Joe Pass, Barney Kessel, Andrew White, Larry Woolridge, Randall Dollahan, Stan Samole, Mark Copeland, etc., and fusing that knowledge with the technical freedom of cats like Allen Holdsworth, Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson, Frank Gambale and others. I love Jack's new book. As a professor at Berklee, I am always looking for new approach. -- Tomo Fujita I wholeheartedly recommend Jack Zucker's Sheets of Sound to any serious student of Jazz Guitar. -- Dr. Joseph Jewell I'm starting to get into your book and I'm finding it facinating, fresh and VERY musical. -- Jamie Glaser (Chick Corea) Sheets of Sound is a unique and valuable resource that every guitarist should own. -- Jimmy Bruno Sheets of Sound is a wonderful, book that would be a welcome addition to any guitarist's library. -- Rodney Jones Sheets of Sound represents, to me, the most comprehensive treatise that I have ever encountered -- Frank Silk Smith (BB King) Performed and recorded with the Army Jazz Ambassadors Studio Music/Guitar Major at the University of Miami Played, performed and studied jazz guitar for over 30 years Taught at Universities and privately for over 20 years.
