Hello Chester, what are your suggestions to embellishing chords on a standard including a minor blues? It's about the beautiful "Stolen moments" with that chord progression, then improvisation space on C minor blues. I use a good leadsheet from Tina and iReal. Here I have 1-2 chord shapes for the chords. I would like to add embellishing chords in a relaxed way.

Thank you and best wishes from Berlin, Michael

Hello Chester, I search for a rule, in what situation a minor 6 chord is a better option than a minor 7. The 6 in a minor 6 chord is a major 6, right? So it would fit to a "2" of a "251", to the dorian scale with the mj 6. But it seems more complicated 😀.

And to guitar gear: Is it typical for flat wound guitar strings that the sustain is less? Is there a solution to use flat wound but with more sustain?

Best, Michael
