AS257 - Vintage 1931 Gibson L-5 - Jitterbug Waltz (Fats Waller)

Hey guys, glad to introduce a new 16 inches prewar Gibson L-5 on the channel, this time from 1931 (courtesy of K.S). I'm playing a great 3/4 standard by Fats Waller, composed in 1942, called Jitterbug Waltz.

I'm playing a 1931 Gibson L-5, 16 inches, solid braced. The guitar is strung with DR bronze strings 80/20 gauge 13, i'm using a gator Dunlop 0.71mm pick and the sound is captured by a Dpa4099 on the guitar and both a Neumann TLM103 and a bluebird in the room.

Feel free to support the channel if you want/can : www.paypal.me/acousticstandards

I've decided to take a couple of student for online classes so hit me up if you're interested. Contact and info : [email protected]

I haven't recorded albums in the style of those acoustic standards, but i have 2 albums on bandcamp with my Django tribute Quartet : https://romainvuilleminquartet.bandca...
The third one "Three sides of a Coin" is just out, so don't hesitate to drop me an email if you'd like a physical copy, i can ship worldwide !!

I may be considering recording a physical album with these acoustic standards as some of you have asked for it, but as printing cds is being a bigger quest year after year, please drop me a message if you think it's a good idea or if you'd like to preorder one or give suggestions etc.

I also have a youtube channel for the Django stuff with my 4tet :    / @romainvuillemin
