lovely playing ! what make is your guitar?

[batzic]

@quincydubois Thanks. The guitar is a custom Brunner. It's a wonderful instrument made to my specs (I want Xtra wide neck, 12 frets outside the body and a few other things), a joy to play and listen to, *and* you can remove the neck, put it in a small bag and go anywhere with it. Specially on planes.

Once again an excellent video - great jazzy feel - super bass lines .

Why the title "Drop G "? id this the tuning?

[batzic]

@flyfifer51 Drop G is the tuning, indeed : DGDGBE, an open G 6.

I use that tuning exclusively since I came back to guitar 5 years ago, and found myself writing tunes at full speed, so i gave them numbers, then, when they reach the final level, they are worth a title.

I almost wrote one thousand of them to date, so at a time I though it could be called a "project", hence the "Drop G Swing Studies" title.
