I recently came across the free electronic version of Jody Fisher’s Rhythm Guitar Encyclopedia. Just click the picture below to view the book and print any pages. Rhythm is the most important element of successful jazz guitar playing. So, the more you can incorporate a wide variety of rhythms in your playing, the better you will become. Enjoy!

There may be a way to download that book if you have several hours to sift through all the web pages and buttons to understand which button downloads it. I did not have time. Looks like a good book.
I think the idea is not to print off the whole book at once. Just pick a few pages that you’re interested in and print those. Good luck.

Very well , thank you Leon
Yes I’m trying just a few pages…it would be nice to have the tracks to get a better idea how it is to sound.
Does anyone have a good practise routine?..I’m a JAZZ guitar start-up and have been following a few books articles and online lessons.
Like I can play “I’ve got Rhythm” from memory.
OK like warm-up 5 minutes,
scales, chords theory???
