Interesting video in which Christiaan van Hemert (a well known dutch gypsy jazz guitarist and violinist) and Tommy Davy (owner of Djangoguitars, one of the largest internetstore of gypsy jazz guitars) rate 10 gypsy jazz guitars https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VU3joLInop4
Gerit van Bergeijk, who made my Big Sound gypsy jazz guitar, is on fifth place (I think he lost some points because he refuses to step in the tradition and goes his own way when it comes to bracing, not using laminate woods and ornamentation).

"The Flamenco Dancer" my own painting, acrylics on stretched canvas.
