Exercise 1 & 3 in the technique course may help a little with this.

I agree with Christaan, spot on with the directions.
I am just beginning to get to grips with these two downstroke dim licks. The same kind of pattern is everywhere. At first I thought it a bit odd but now I can't wait to get it smooth. So many licks depend on it.
I would agree with the steps you outlined also

Is this Typical Django, or is it more modern?

The box shapes for the A7b13 chords are showing A13.
Is there any particular reason why you call these b13 chords and not augmented?

Sounds like an G dim chord to my ears, and not the C7b9b13 in the tab, both of which sound great.

G dim. C7b9b13

Am I right in thinking that the C7 is the V of the root key, but seeing that it is going to F+ (the V of This Lydian mode), the G dim makes more sense as a passing chord?

Yaahooooo

Beautiful,
Beautiful.

Is there a particular concert pitch that is commonly used. I notice in some recordings that the guitar is not tuned at A=440, usually it is lower or higher by around a semitone.
I was wondering what Stochelo normally tunes to and does it vary depending on who Stochelo is working with.

I concur

Any idea when the next improv session wiil be.
G minor was spectacular. I will not mind playing these again and again and again in different keys.
I actually signed up this month hoping there would be another one.


I have just read other posts about the improv section
and my question is answered. lol.
Very happy about the next lessons coming up.
