    I came for the lesson, but stayed for the performance, or maybe it was the other way around. INCREDIBLE PLAYING. Impeccable instruction. It does not get any better than this!!!!

    I was in Switzerland last week training for my work, and I found myself in a second hand CD shop looking for music by this guy called Django Reinhardt. I found a compilation and bought it. Now obsessed with his songs Rhythm Futur and I'll see you in my Dreams, I have you to thank you for introducing me to this music I'd otherwise never heard of ☝️👍😊 so thanks, Alex

    Outstanding as usual! I will have to learn it, it sounds great. However, while I have both a Gibson ES175 and a magnificent vintage 1962 Martin D28, I don't have a classical guitar. Now you've convinced me to buy one! (PS--- you don't list the D28 that is seen in the opening video, in your Gear list --- or is it a D18 or something else? Looks like a D28)

    • @AlexFarranGuitar
      @AlexFarranGuitar  11 місяців тому

      Haha, apologies to your wallet my friend! ;) I love having a classical hanging around to play on.. such a beautifully toneful instrument. Ah yes, the Martin is a HD28v .. part of a special edition run for Westside distribution here in the UK.. it's an absolute beauty 👌🏻

    This performance sounded like something you would hear whilst watching a latin couple do a seductive dance in a semi-clean cantina in South America 💃🕺
    Very nice 175, new ? It reminds me of Jonthan Kreisberg, an outstanding musician like yourself. My favourite track of his is "Unearth", it's the Bee's knees 🐝

    • @AlexFarranGuitar
      @AlexFarranGuitar  11 місяців тому +1

      Haha “semi-clean cantina”.. love how specific that scenario is! 😂
      Yes, I got the 175 a few weeks back, it’s an old one from 1958!.. a bit of a dream guitar for me. I did a video all about it on my Patreon, it’s one seriously sweet guitar. Just badly needs a refret!
      I’ll have to check out more Jonathan Kreisberg.. I’ve only heard bits and bobs but always liked it. 👌🏻
