The reason jazz manouche isn't typically played with this kind of technique is that it's meant to be played acoustically first and amplified second. When you wrist angle is like this your pick goes up and away from the body, and your string will be pushed to vibrate sideways in relation to the top of the guitar, so it makes a quiet sound that will not be heard during an acoustic jam session with 2 or more guitars plating rhythm loudly next to you. If you use rest strokes (gypsy picking as some people call it) you push your string TOWARDS the body and this makes a strong, projected sound that people can hear. It also gives your phrases the typical Django sound - where downstrokes are loud and upstrokes more quiet - this gives unpredictability and syncopation to your lines which in turn makes it sound like jazz
I have attended Django festival in France since 2006 and have seen all the greats live more than once and they all have a different wrist angle and pick attack, it is more dependent on your anatomy than anything else Because we all vary in size i.e. different size hands arms fingers .there is no hard rule on this, it is if it works for you it is OK.
@@nicholaspetergagg7769 you are right, but the thing that unifies all the greats is the fact that they all use rest strokes, which is what this was about. Not how sharp the angle of their wrist or whatever
Very good. Very clean and nice soul 👍🏽👌🏽
Great playing!
Fabulous!
Молодец!!!
Very good!
your picking technique is good and your wrist angle is fine -a very good rendition

@@N.M.S_GypsyProject I don't mean this to insult you, I admire your dedication and humility!
It's the same way the Oud is played

nice
예뻐요 예뻐♡♡
do you know where I can get tabs for this song ?
@@N.M.S_GypsyProject yes, please. I just sent my email on your facebook account. Check your messages box.
What strings did you put on it lad? I have one too and I think it sounds much too sharp and bright.
@@N.M.S_GypsyProject Do you recall what type and size? I'd love to put those on mine!
These guitars are know to be sharp and bright...doubt the string does much from the guitar's overall character!
@@TheStrataminor You mean the Eastmans, or gypsy guitars? Because it's... really bright when I play it. Sometimes bordering on the annoying.
Pick up your wrist and use proper picking technique, otherwise nice
