[gageiiiiitttt]

his face at the end just says "what you haven't realized yet is you are now carrying my child"

@odingr it's not alt picking. it's been said to be the same technique as bluegrass flat picking (so i've heard). basically It uses downstrokes with ANY change of string, but otherwise alternate picking with successive notes on the same string.

@gageiiiiitttt you mean that look he give the asian guy hhahahaha!

[maerschalck]

hoi cminor7b5 thx voor al die mooie dingen

[tijn588]

what kind of string does he use?!

[xutabola]

GESUS!!! i looped about x 10 !!!

[xemosintightsx]

@ndounakis it's just based on the chord shape. remember that every lick resolves on the chords, so basically, if you take the roots of the chord and create a scale, you've got yourself a "lick." don't be too upset with yourself :P

@odingr They use much more of a bent wrist, due to the angle of attack (45 deg.) needed for rest stop picking. The bluegrass guys (most of them) use a little more elbow and a straighter wrist. I worked for five years 4-6 hrs a day to make the transition, I think the bent wrist works well for bluegrass, too, except on fiddle tunes, which are almost exclusively alternate picking. Check out Michael Horowitz' excellent book, "Gypsy Picking" (from Djangobooks) or watch Angelo DeBarre and Bireli

[odingr]

i see you use a lot your wrist when picking! is there a different picking technique when playing gypsy jazz?? do you use alternate picking or another technique?

[ndounakis]

the lick from 0:46 - 0:53 is the kind that makes me want to smash my guitar and throw it in the fireplace (just like the rest of the solo)
