    I remember in a younger video you refering to your tremolo and how you aren't happy yet with where you are to hearing this performance. Bravo!

    Thank you for your very nice arrangements and tips. Your chord transitions are very nice, and your selection of music as well. Since it is latin jazz it fits well with a bossa nova backing rhythm, but I would have liked to hear it with a real bolero rhythm behind it . Thanks again for the beautiful pieces you share!

    Very jealous. I have to settle for "Inspired by Gibson" (339) 😒 For "electric Spanish" jazz I'd love to hear you play some Marc Ribot. Aurora en Pekin is an obvious, popular choice (although maybe a little slow for this format).

    Greetings Sergio and Gibson. I am also dabbling on a recent electric purchase. New Eastman AR 508. Having trouble laying down a bar chord with frequent buzzing on 3rd string, and generally less enjoyable to play. Is it your experience that playability should be "easier" on the electric, in things like action, than nylon guitar....or just persevere to find a good bar finger position? Maybe topics for a podcast?

    Really like this video on chords and Improv. I joined as a student paying monthly to try it out. I am super frustrated because I can't find the place to do the once a month only download for this video! Decieving because where I signed up it said students get sheet music down loads. Afterwards it tells me I only get one. I'm very frustrated. Can't find Besame Mucho on your sheet music page.

    Thank you Sergio. I've only been learning/playing for 4 years, and have only recently started to practice the technique. Apart from the obvious daily practice and the forever search of what and how to practice, I've also learned that time and patience are the only other common requirement that are allowing me to progress. 40 years? sure....I can do that. Hang on, I'm in my sixties....maybe not 😁 Cheers.

    Heya, your lesson would be quite useful if you knew how to pass on your knowledge. It is quite chaotic instead and took me quite a while to follow your line of thinking. If you were conversing with someone who is at your level, ie knows the song and chord progressions, it would by a valuable exchange of observations. However, this is supposed to be an instruction, and, as such, it requires a fair amount of good will to stay with you line of thought. Obviously you know music theory, but it is useless when you share it not knowing how to make it accessible to someone not versatile in this area. Also, I don't know how you hear Brazilian music, but I found chords that sound better than your solutions. And why do you name a chord Bb7#11 if there is no 11 in it. It is simply Bb7/-5. Having said that, it was useful to a certain extent, and I used some of your chord shapes, but if you aim to confuse people thinking they will pay you thinking you will make it easier to learn, you fail miserably. You are lousy teacher, sorry.

    Thanks, Sergio. I'll give these exercises a go. It's helpful to hear that learning to play tremolo smoothly takes quite a bit of time. I've become impatient with it in the past and pretty much gave up on thinking I could ever learn to play it very well. Patience is not my best virtue at times!
