I'll be in Amsterdam Feb. 22 through Fed. 28th (first time!).

Can anyone help with:

1. gypsy jazz clubs/shows
2. jam sessions or lessons
3. CD shops for gypsy jazz
4. luthiers to visit to try out guitars?

Many thanks from a devoted gypsy jazzer.

    Dont know about luthiers but what about a visit to Palm Guitars, near Waterloosplein....... I think.

    Here the link to their site www.palmguitars.nl

    I know that Ger Boonstra and Moustcahe Guiatrs are based in Holland but not sure where.

    As for venues,gigs etc. I was in Amsterdam about three years ago and didn't find anything advertised but came across a trio in bar one night who were excellent so I'm sure it's out there.

    Have fun
    always learning

    Thanks for the replies...Bluebird and Palmguitars it shall be (perhaps not in that order).

    Saw a previous post for a bar/restaurant named Hooghoudt that features gypsy jazz on a regular basis, so I'll give it go as well.

    Thanks again.
