In this beginner-friendly jazz guitar lesson, I'll show you how to get started with just three essential chords – Dm7, G7 and Cmaj7 – using the classic 2-5-1 jazz chord progression.

We'll work on smooth chord changes, add some swing to our rhythm playing, and explore how simple arpeggios can help us start playing jazz solos without memorising loads of complicated scales!
