In this guitar tutorial we're going to look at all the essential rhythm and lead ideas in the gypsy jazz style as applied to the techniques and sensibility of Spanish guitar players. If you play classical, flamenco, fingerstyle, latin or Spanish guitar, this lesson will give you a kickstarter to get you into this great style of music.
The classic "le pompe," the bolero, gypsy bossa and waltz rhythms are explored with guidance on how to play these with your fingers rather than with a pick. We can include flamenco guitar techniques like the rasgueo and picado to our rhythm and lead playing, and there is quite a bit of crossover between these two styles of playing as I explain here.

Scot Taber Guitarist
Django Reinhardt Popularized the Steel String Acoustic Guitar in Jazz but he also taught himself how to play the Guitar w/ only 3 Fingers after his last 2 were paralyzed in an Accident, he was an inspiration. His recordings actually inspired alot of other Guitarists to get back on the Guitar after an Accident prevented them from playing.
Great! You are a wealth of information and the presentation is very clear. Also - you are a Master of the instrument!
Wow, thank you!
Is this via a mic or line?
A mic but nothing special
Great tutorial, thank you
That Rhythm Pattern is called "La Pompe"
Brilliant! Sure, it's just the "Tip" of the iceberg. But, it's such a,...wait for it,..."Cool" Iceberg! Thanks Scot! I always suspected there was a way to mix Bach, Flamenco and Gypsy Jazz! Fun lesson.

You are simply amazing! A real master of the guitar! Thank you for your lesson and presentation!!

I have an Altamira M01D-N which is a Nylon Strung version of their D Hole Gypsy Jazz Guitar. It's a copy of the Original Selmer Maccaferri which was a Nylon String Guitar. I just strung it up with Thomastik Infeld CF128 Classic N Flatwound Classical Guitar Strings with a Wound G for better intonation and a Slick Jazz Feel. I attached String Beads to the ends of the strings (basically like having Ball End Classical Guitar Strings) so that it's easier to restring without having to tie the strings onto the bridge. And actually it also let's the strings come out of the bridge at a steeper angle over the saddle.
Nice! One of my students has that model, I’ve also seen one from Takamine
@@TheVersatileGuitarist Thomastik CF128 Strings certainly will give you a Slick Jazz Feel.
@@TheVersatileGuitarist Yeah alot of musicians have missed the fact that the Original Maccaferri Guitars were Nylon String Guitars.
@@TheVersatileGuitarist I use the John Pearse Django Button Picks.
@@TheVersatileGuitarist The Large D Hole Gypsy Jazz Guitars are called Guitare à Grande Bouche
Well done, perfectly explained and demonstrated, and great from start to finish. Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks I’m glad someone is out there enjoying it!!
Instant fan! I'm primarily a vocalist , and a self-taught guitarist. I'm 3 minutes into this, and feel like this was custom made for me. Your techniques have little light bulbs flashing! I am sure this will polish my work. I am so excited and thankful to have found you. Can't wait to incorporate into my music, and binge watch all your vids. Feel like I found a treasure trove! Thank you!
Oh wow, thanks for the vote of confidence! Binge away!
@@TheVersatileGuitarist And binging, I am! Legitimately impressed.
Classical guitar neck is very similar to Gypsy Jazz
Easy to play too and gives you a very comfortable space to play with the Gypsy Jazz right hand position as Jango 😎
It's just my opinion
Great. Do you have material on old Mississippi delta blues style?
Great lesson thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Why is this man's thumb shaped like that this is amazing
Lots of yoga
Wait actually?
This is Exactly the video I’m looking for! I’ve been playing gypsy jazz but want to play on a nylon strung guitar.. thanks so much!! I love the Spanish feel of Angelo DeBarres work and this will enable me to do so. Hearing it on a classical guitar has convinced me this is the right path
Awesome, glad I can help! I have tons of nylon-based gypsy jazz stuff coming up!
Btw check out my channel I have a solo arrangement of Djangology (with tutorial) and Nuages …bossa dorado coming soon!
thankyou
You're welcome!
