Standards Library
The Standards Library is a growing collection of jazz standard charts adapted for the HGB6.
These charts are designed to help players apply chord shapes, bass movement, groove concepts, and harmonic vocabulary in real musical settings. Rather than focusing on solo guitar arrangements, the material presented here is primarily built around a rhythm section approach to playing standards on the Hybrid Guitars Big 6.
The HGB6 is capable of performing bass lines, chords, and melodies simultaneously. However, the charts in this collection are generally intended for ensemble playing, where another musician is responsible for carrying the melody. The focus here is on supporting the music through comping, bass movement, harmonic accompaniment, and groove.
Each chart may include:
- Song form and roadmap
- Chord changes
- HGB6 voicing ideas
- Bass line concepts
- Key centers and theory notes
- Practice suggestions
- Reference recordings or video examples
Many of the concepts draw inspiration from jazz rhythm guitar and traditional rhythm section playing. The goal is to develop a practical vocabulary that allows HGB6 players to function as a harmonic and rhythmic foundation within an ensemble while taking advantage of the instrument’s unique range and tuning.
As the Dragon Jamz HGB6 System grows, additional standards, arrangements, and performance notes will be added over time.
