I searched youtube for gypsy jazz basic rhythms, la pompe, waltz etc but found almost nothing. Can you give me links for youtube clips where people show how to play gypsy jazz rhythms properly?
the guy play in that link is not bad, but i wouldn't call that "proper" (with all due respect to him)... the voicings are really too basic.... although that's how i start everyone... and the the upstroke should not be muted, it all needs to sound like butter
here's a really great example (the actual pompe rhythm starts later)
