Gypsy jazz double down technique - a new approach, and some drills (draft video!)

This is an initial draft video explaining gypsy jazz "double down" picking, where you do a downstroke on one string, and move to the adjacent lower string to do another downstroke.

There are a couple of drills I'm using to explore the idea.

These are all outlined in more detail at practicing-guitar.readthedocs.io/en/latest/, a free compilation of various practicing...

Work-in-progress for Lute: loading predefined languages and their stories.

Ideally, Lute would pull down the n...
