Trop d'honneur ! ☺Merci !

It is! 1944 D-28

Thank you - I’ve never seen tab on any of renditions before this video. Hopefully it’s helpful for others and learning such a great tune!

Presque ! Une D41 mais visuellement elles se ressemblent. La différence sur une D45 il y a un contour en abalone au niveau des frets 14 à 20. Quand au son c'est une pure merveille. Merci !

Thank you my friend!!!😊

Appreciate that!

@@ZionForman Definitely. I've been playing gypsy jazz guitar since 2006, and I have taken many lessons from some of the best players from Europe at the annual Django in June festival in Massachusetts. I've also played four Selmers (including #103 with an intact resonator), several Favinos, Busatos, Di Mauros, and a number of modern gypsy jazz guitars. The difference between gypsy picking and regular picking is dranatic. Go listen to some gypsy jazz players, watch the right hand, and note the incredible power of the sound.

@@ZionForman Not really. I started in 1956 when I was ten years old. I was playing ukulele but discovered Elvis, and Elvis did not play ukulele, so I asked for a guitar for Christmas. Later got into folk, then bluegrass, which I played for twenty years until getting bored with the basic harmonic structurs and turned to swing jazz, eventually getting into gypsy jazz. Plus two years of classical guitar lessons. So I know enough to know that Molly is a totally awesome player and that gypsy style guitars need to be played with gypsy picking to really bring out the sound.

@@ZionForman Apparently not everyone. Feel free to explain the "point" to me. My point is that Selmer and other gypsy jazz guitars sound totally different when played with rest stroke gypsy picking as opposed to alternate picking (as Molly is doing, with her palm resting on the bridge). How much gypsy picking have you done, oh Mr. "Beat you by decades"?

Yeah, this is Sunday driving in a Formula One car. Those guitars have a very different response to normal flat tops, designed to project when played with a heavier pick/heavier rest stroke attack, which would just make a Martin buzz out

@@DSteinman Thank you. Someone else gave me a lot of grief over this but has since deleted his posts. You are absolutely right, and it sounds like you may be a gypsy jazz player yourself. I'm not sure about making a Martin buzz out, since so many of them are strung with bronze .013s, but the Selmer style guitar definitely needs the "gypsy picking" to bring out the Django sound, otherwise it's just a lightly strung flattop. Most people probably do not realize this, but rest stroke picking was the common way of playing prior to the advent of the electric guitar because it greatly increased the voliune and projection of the instrument. Someone once said that they had read a 19th Century mandolin instruction book, and it described rest stroke picking.

If that guitar still has an intact resonator (most of them were ripped out after they came loose and rattled around), it's probably priced at $40-50,000.

My pleasure !

Oh non !!! Quel dommage, vraiment. Je t'aurais payé une pinte en échange de ton secret pour savoir jouer aussi vite et bien que toi ! De mon côté, à par reconnaitre tes genoux je n'avais aucune chance de te trouver 😅

@@Hugh.Dequiedt 🤣 Dans ce cas, je n'hésiterai pas la prochaine fois !

Thanks for listening

🤗Thank you for these compliments! For recording it's very simple. I don't have any equipment so for the sound I record with my Mac Book Pro because the microphone is better than the one on my phone. I do it with quick time (file>new video recording). And for the image I film with my phone because it's better than the computer's webcam. Not really professional as you can see!

Yes you are right, Bury me beneath the willow. I just saw that it's mentioned in Ron Block's video.
