You don't need to apologize for not giving your tabs for free. Nowdays people want everything to be given to them for free. They don't take into account the amount of work your videos need to be made. Thank you for your awsome work.

You're becoming a Jazz monster man.
Thank you 🙂👍
Brilliant video Christiaan. This really fills in a big part of my own knowledge puzzle. I think that because I've long played mostly pentatonic shapes ingrained by endless practice hours in my youth, my brain only connects the shapes I learnt, so when I play your very different lines, it's like trying to do an abstract puzzle, where the pieces all look the same. Perhaps playing these basic shapes as warm up routines thousands of times will help.

Thanks so much Stephen. I think you're right: drilling these basic shapes might open some doors for you!
Hi Christiaan, I realy like the video. Getting the stuff that we have in our ear, presented in an organised way! Just one remark. You advise to practice in the circle of 5th. You show us to go from G to C, fro C to F, G to B flat etc. So, I think for you it is obvious, but you are going the other way around. The circle of quarters. It is just confusing to call it the circle of 5th. The circle of 4th is more important!

Haha doesn't it depend which way you go in the circle? 4ths one way is 5ths the other way!

Are triplets the fastest gypsy jazz licks can be, or are there any 16/4 licks?
I miss the sentence:"phrases by Justin Bieber" :D Great job!
Agree with you, Christiaan. I think being a Patreon is well worth it.

Hey christiaan, great lesson! There's a nice m6 shape with the pinky on the root and 1st finger on the 6 (strings 1 and 6) and i was wondering why you don't include it as well, and also if you ever use it. Thanks!

Yeah, I use that. That shape is in my "advanced shapes" part of my system because it's a very good shape to build endless variations
I swear somewhere there was an aside that you could play one of these Phrygian dominant over minor... like, play the G7 ones over Dminor... is that right? Sounds great to me... Also... it seems like I'm finding that the Phrygian ones only work on certain dominant chords, not all, it depends where in the form, the relationship to the root, or is my ear just not hip enough yet?
Hey christiaan I’ve been thinking about getting a TD Altamira. How does it compare to M30 Antique?
love your videos! do u do skype/zoom lessons?
I'm really enjoying the videos - thank you! I've subscribed on the $5 a month level but finding it difficult to find which videos I can get the subscriptions for at this level - could you say in the title?

I can't really do that because it's always access to the last two months of tab for the $5 level. So that changes every month. Thanks for joining though (check the full video index on Patreon for easier navigation)

so, if we are in c, and we have a four minor, (f-) we can play that altered shape on G right?

What would you play on m7b5 chords?

m7b5 is an inversion of m6 (Cm7b5 = Ebm6) so I just play Ebm!

@@ChristiaanvanHemert Thanks =) Your videos are very helpful! do you visualise that Eb is the minor third of cm7b5 then? I am having trouble remembering which m6 I should play over the different dominant7 chords.
