I don't know about anything on Youtube. Apologies.

However, I am using the Jamey Aebersold jazz series of books and recordings. I really like it a lot. The emphasis is on improvisation, but there is a tremendous amount of useful information on harmony.

Also, Arnie Berle wrote a column called Fretboard Basics for Guitar Player years ago. Some of those columns were collected into a book, and I have been using that one as well. It's a good basic primer in jazz materials for the guitar.

Like you, I have been playing a long time and think I play pretty well. But I have wanted a new challenge, and I am really trying to learn to be a competent jazz player. I've always loved jazz. So I figure it's now or never.
