Feels like the ghost of Django would file a formal complaint.

Haha..do any of you use a Selmer style guitars outside of traditional techniques?

Django himself fingerpicked a few tunes. Can't tell you from the top of my head what they were but I'm sure he did. Also feel free to use your instrument how you like. It's like some people have a problem when you use a pick on a classical guitar. Like what's the problem? Al Di Meola does it. Serge Camps did it. There shoudn't be any "forbidden" techniques.

Lovely!

As I have no correct techniques in any style, I have to use the outside ones every time I touch one of my guitars ...

@Buco

The harmonic structure of the Chopin asks for a bossa nova version.

Nice playing! Just goes to show what versatile guitars these are - designed, let's not forget, by a fingerstyle classical guitarist.

But hang on - Drop D tuning! Where's my pitchfork?!
