The real problem
You did the work. Modes, arpeggios, pentatonics, theory books, YouTube rabbit holes. You’ve loved this music for years, and at the jam it still comes out as patterns. Effort was never the problem. The approach every scale-heavy course keeps selling you is.
Learn a scale for every chord. Track every change in real time. Stack theory on theory until, in Ben’s words, “it gets all mushed together.” That is how you end up technically advanced and still not sounding like jazz.
Built on Pat Martino’s four formations. You map the fretboard with musical phrases instead of scales, convert the chords to one minor idea, and suddenly the lines you play are real bebop lines, the sound jazz is made of. That is the whole basis of Bebop Lines Made Simple.
One idea that replaces the whole pile of scales.
What you’ll learn, live
One hour, guitar in hand. Armin plays everything he teaches, so you hear the difference the second it happens.
The 3 reasons your solos still sound like scales: pattern-running, playing correct but boring, and freezing up when the chords move. Each trap has a fix, and you’ll get all three: aim at chord tones, build tension then resolve it, and think minor.
The one shift that makes your lines sound like jazz instead of exercise patterns.
Reduce, map, execute. The 4 formations that map the whole fretboard, how to convert the chords to minor, and the pivoting move that gives you freedom across the entire neck instead of hiding in one position.
A simple map that turns the fretboard into one shape you already know, so you stop getting lost when the chords change.
Licks that only work alone at home are decoration. You’ll learn how to internalize vocabulary so it shows up under pressure, on the spot, at a real jam, when someone counts off a tune you didn’t pick.
A way to practice licks so they show up at a real jam, not just in your practice room.
One hour Sunday, and you leave with lines you can play that same night.
Save My Free SeatEveryone who’s still live at the end gets Armin’s cheat sheet: the minor conversion system on one page. Print it and put it on your music stand for the next time you play. Show up live, stay to the end, it’s yours.

Your teacher
Armin is a professional jazz guitarist, 7+ years on stage, conservatory-trained, and accepted to top New York jazz programs. He’s on stage every week with serious jazz players.
He built minor conversion after watching intermediate players drown in scale-heavy courses. It takes Pat Martino’s approach and turns it into one simplifying idea that gets you sounding like bebop without the theory pile.
More than 30,000 players follow his teaching, and he has coached 100+ students through the system you’ll see in this class.
“If it wasn’t for Armin’s program I wouldn’t be able to play jazz at all.”Jonas · mentorship student
Real students, real words
“But the language of jazz I never understood. If you play scales, it doesn’t sound like jazz. Pentatonic, maybe a little bit more, but it still doesn’t sound like jazz. Within two weeks to four weeks with Armin’s coaching, it changed. Now this sounds like jazz in my ears.”
“I spent a lot of time trying to decide what the perfect system or teacher would be, I went through a lot of different lessons and courses. The approach of starting with linear expressions, formations, and the minor conversion stuff really helped open up the fretboard for me. It’s hard to say who it wouldn’t work for.”
Free, but capped at 500 seats. One hour with Armin beats another six months of scale drills. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.
