Paul Mehling The Ultimate Gypsy Jazz/Swing Guitar Lesson - DVD 1
Hot Club of San Francisco guitarist Paul Mehling builds on all his
popular Homespun lessons with this comprehensive workout/ practice
regimen for aspiring swing players. He focuses on robust warm-ups and
training exercises to develop good time, tone, speed and the specific
techniques needed to get the authentic “Gypsy Jazz” sound.
You’ll get a thorough workout in the use of scales, vibrato, tremolo,
rhythmic strumming, chord work and arpeggios, the cornerstone of Gypsy
jazz - and any kind of music that utilizes a flat pick. There’s lots of
great technical advice here too, as Pazzo demonstrates his approach to
“ironing out” the problems encountered when learning a new song or
technique, how to fix mistakes and practice efficiently - a boon to any
guitarist learning this challenging style.
Django-style jazz is hot, and Paul’s thorough and detailed lesson will
give you the tools needed to develop powerful and concise right- and
left-hand rhythm and soloing skills.
