can't believe some ungrateful tw*t said you talk too much - what was he expecting for nothing. Robin you don't talk too much but rather give the best gypsy jazz guitar tuition and explain it in a fun and immediately usable way. I for one are extremely indebted to your generosity and warmth of spirit
i have followed many teachers. Yours is different , very informative and "cool" Thank u. Now back to the lesson.(just1/2 way at this time.) I'm back............It may take a while , but I look forward to getting that formation feeling a little more comfy, Thank you.( Friendly face.)
I’m Pong from Thailand I would like to thank you so much I was so many times in Thailand not much guitarists play Gypsy Jazz but for me lovely Gypsy Jazz when i was you easy to understand thank you so much
Sompong Visriputn thanks for the kind words Pong. I’m happy the lessons inspire and help you to play. I was in Thailand many years ago, a beautiful country and people! Robin
@@GypsyJazzSecrets Well this ain't Gypsy jazz, but its how I do All of Me fingerpicking style. My wheelhouse for standards, but I am slowly learning your chords. ua-cam.com/video/Qp0rb0x6WHo/v-deo.html
I couldn’t agree more, keep going Robin you are doing an awesome job with your positive spin onto this, I am very grateful for all your ongoing work.Thankyou. Fionn{Norfolk uk)
I never thought of using this cool minor 7 flat five chord so extensively. I use it a lot in 145. I was just lying in my exhausted for using a snow thrower after a snow storm in Finland and wanted to learn this sheik of araby tune in sort of swing style and was lucky to to find this approach. Thank you.
Would be awesome whenn you show chords on a card like you did here in this video. I did play it for hours this night. So great, i love this music. I am a bginner. Never thought i could play this. And omg... much easyer, then ever thought. Great, thanks. I love it !
Ahh cool man glad it helps. I use cards like this for my live with Robin workshops in the Gypsy Jazz Club plus PDF stab for all lessons I the club. I’m here to help! 🙏💕🎸Robin
Nice cloudy cool day in Sydney, Australia. More coolness also from this amazing shape, thanks. I have found that I can make some moderately respectable solo runs by twiddling notes up and down a fret from it, moving into the diminished scale. How about a lesson to trigger our creativity along these lines?
I'm attempting to branch out from my stuck in the 90s metal playing, I've always enjoyed other music but never pushed myself to learn, I'm thoroughly enjoying your content and wanted to say thanks! Much appreciated! Have a very well earned sub!
@@GypsyJazzSecrets thanks pal! I understand a bit of theory but I've never understood how to apply it, like how you know you can swap in these half diminished shapes, 2ing the 5 and all that! Makes me realise how long my musical road is! isolation gives me free time these tutorials/lessons are really inspiring! You're a great player too 🤘
I stumbled on your channel and I have learned a few things already. I like your chord shape approach to music - I wish more guitar players would catch on to this. I'm in Houston, Texas playing blues and blues hybrids with jazz, country and whatever sounds good. I subscribed, thanks for your help.
@@GypsyJazzSecrets Robin! Thanks to you, if you can please check my version of "All of me" i use a lot of your things, and the crispy C with harmonics at the end! :D ua-cam.com/video/mNj8qSvmWPA/v-deo.html
could you explain more about substitution chords , it's confusing , you give a half diminished E for a C, Or a half dim C# for a A . Reverse chords or substitutions without explanation .i came up with the idea that in gypsie music you never built a chord over the root note cause it remains for the bass player , so instead we build chords over the 3th
I am new to gypsy jazz guitar and I can play a few regular chords on a guitar. Can you tell me what the R means on the base E String in some of the fret charts? Thanks. I hope I can learn to do this. You make it look easy
@@maryshue5513 ok got you… don’t let things like that distract you. Concentrate on memorizing whatever tune you’re working on, know less tunes really well. 🙏💕🎸
Thanks for the great channel! But, if I may ask, what tricks I must do to make my Ibanez AEL-series acoustic guitar sound like gypsy jazz guitar? Is it even possible? Here in Helsinki we have no new GJ guitars in music stores, I saw one second hand guitar but someone was quicker as always. I'm not very confident to order acoustic guitar from Thomann as it can be in thousand pieces after delivery.
Doc Trinos it’s all in the fingers Doc. When you play go for Sound & Tone. Make the notes ring clear and add some fast vibrato. Close your eyes and play from your heart. Let me know how you go.. I’m here to help! Robin
That shape plays an atmospheric sort of swelling chord in Leonard Cohens WAITING FOR THE MIRACLE...but I thought it covered the top E ...Keep trying to find a home for it between B7 ,E m and the C with 2 fingers... never mind !! x
Hi Robin, thanks for everything. I'm your student in your online course, I am learning the solo of all of me playing it slow but when the speed goes up I started to get so confused specially in my right hand. Is there any exercises or video that you could recommend? hope you're doing well! thanks.
Gypsy Jazz Secrets it’s really astonishing how Django worked all that out, intuitively. We’re trying to figure out what came out of his soul, and I’m sure loads of practice!
I don't know what any of us would do without you, my bruh. Keep doing everything you're doing!

Mark McCluney beautiful same to you Mark! Robin
Sounds nice. Could u explain the concept of how this minor 7b5 shape can be substituted for these various chords.
Yes this chord X7878X can be Em7-5, Gm6 and C9. The chord X2323X can be Bm7-5, Dm6 and G9. It all depended on the context.

Reverse chords or substitutions without explanation .i came up with the idea that in gypsie music you never built a chord over the root note cause it remains for the bass player , so instead we build chords over the 3th
E half dim with root E on 7th fret acts as the 2 chord on a minor 2-5-1 into Dm. The same shape on the 4th fret with C# in root acts as an A9 chord.
@@GypsyJazzSecrets well hey , still why a E half dim over a C then ?
@@charvelangel the half dim chord with E in root at 7th fret also works as C9

@@GypsyJazzSecrets and there is every year in a little village called "liberchies" a Django festival....

I am new to gypsy jazz guitar and I can play a few regular chords on a guitar. Can you tell me what the R means on the base E String in some of the fret charts? Thanks. I hope I can learn to do this. You make it look easy
IM not sure Mary? Can you give more detail or an example? Thanks I’m here to help! Robin
Ahhh it could mean ‘Root’ so the root note of a chord
Thats probably it. On page 11, the G chord fret chart.
Just wanted to be sure my fingers didn’t do anything there. I have short finger so this is a challenge for me but I’m up for it.
