New JTC artist Luca Mantovanelli plays a MultiAmp in his first JTC pack and he has definitely hit the ground running! This pack is going to show you exactly how to navigate the most essential of chord progressions (the II-V-I) like an absolute pro! Why is the II-V-I an essential progression? Firstly it’s the most widely used progression in Jazz, and appears in Pop and Rock tunes the world over, but it also contains the three most common chord types, a Maj7 chord, a Min7 chord and a dominant chord and learning to solo over these chord types might just be the most important lesson you can learn.

Inside this pack Luca executes 20 melodic fusion licks that perfectly outline the underlying harmony. We’re talking Dorian licks, Superlocrian scales, Dominant7b9 arpeggios, Diminished arpeggios, tritone scales, use of the harmonic minor scale, chromatic lines, pentatonics, hybrid picking, legato, string skipping, sweep picking, fast phrases, slow phrases and a lick inspired by Tom Quayle. You really couldn’t cram any more value into this pack if you tried!

All of this is combined in a very musical fashion with impeccable time-feel and groove. If any of the above terms scare you, then this pack may just be the perfect introduction to not just the subjects but how to apply them to your own playing and licks. The icing on the cake here are the two very jammable backing tracks with one in a straight feel and the other in a swing feel.
