Guitar Lesson Overview
Here's a guitar lesson on how to play octaves. Wes Montgomery, Jimi Hendrix, and other great guitar players have used octaves in their playing. It creates a cool sound and is a useful tool to have in your pocket.
I like using octaves for jazz guitar playing, but I also use it with high gain sounds sometimes because it creates a fat sound, quite different from single-note playing.
