Hey Robin,

Nice playing, and it was fun jamming with you in NYC.

We are both playing lead, thats Tim on his beautiful Rob Aylwood Django style guitar, and I am on the archtop, which is a Hofner Jazz President, I also have a fantastic Oliver Marin Django style guitar but I chose to play electric alot of the time.

Glad you like the clips,

Robin

You get a great tone out of that Hofner.

RKatz · February 2006

Why thank you, actually it really plays like a gypsy guitar and therefore when plugged in and using a bit of proper picking it sounds warm, bright and dirty, kind of a late Django sound.

playing is stellar from both sides, although thrip should of made more use of that martino lick i like so much hehehe

We acknowlage the respect with gratitude oh great Denis of Montreal, thou art kind, thou art wise and thou art a great player thyself. I tryed to throw in that Jimmy WMD lick on one of the tunes, but fucked it up and it turned into something far less intimidating, ayway we await your return to sunny London.

Salutations,

Robin

Your modesty is utterly charming, but I don't think any bowing is necessary on your part
