Guitar Techniques is in the awesomely brilliant position to have one of the UK's top gypsy jazz guitarists as music writer and transcriber.
So, when we wanted to tab a Django Reinhardt track, the call went straight out to John Wheatcroft. Wheaty is an amazing player and teacher and his version of The Quintet of the Hot Club de France's 'Minor Swing' leaves nothing to the imagination. He's even tabbed out Stephane Grappelli's violin solos for heaven's sake.
If you want to learn a genuinely authentic gypsy jazz tune then this is your one-stop shop.
