"Django's Tiger" with Gonzalo Bergara

Gonzalo Bergara joins me for this duet on "Django's Tiger," the gypsy jazz standard written by Django Reinhardt. Check out Gonzalo's stuff on YouTube and at http://www.gonzalobergara.com -- he's one of my absolute favorite guitarists!

By the way, how does Gonzalo make that guitar sound so awesome? It's like he projects and has great attack, but also sounds smooth at the same time.

@Ultraspontane That's the million dollar question, isn't it? :-)

[Ultraspontane]

Are you playing a cigano here? It sounds pretty good.

[adrianholovaty]

@Ultraspontane Nope, not a Cigano -- it's an AJL, model 503-XO.

@strwy2hvn94 I'm told Gitane guitars are very good. I think the cheaper ones are £350, which I appreciate isn't cheap, but much cheaper than some, and they apparently have very good quality for the price.

I absolutely love hearing you solo. Very melodic with excellent note choice.

By the way, do you know of any affordable yet playable gypsy guitars?

This is superb! Wow! Makes me want to learn some more gypsy jazz.

there we go, nice solo... and funny ending chord. you dont usually hear a gypsy jazz song end with some sort of maj7#11 chord.
