For clarification, the Jazzmaster referred to in the title of this thread is my Warmoth Jazzmaster loaded with Rumpelstiltskin pickups, not the charlatan playing it... :toothy12:
A little background on the piece. While hit-and-miss to say the least, I find YouTube gear demos are a treasure trove of wonderful music being created by musicians you've never heard of. Such is the case here. My dad stumbled on this demo of an ES-175 a while back while shopping for, well, an ES-175:

(edit: I've learned that the name of the player is Florian Brettschneider)
The first bit is a wonderfully jazzy jaunt through a I-vi-ii-V progression. He showed it to me and we were both pretty knocked out by this fella's finger work (and facial expressions) and so we took it to our jazz guitar instructor. We spent the last couple of months dissecting and learning it and learning from it. It has been a ton of fun! This is my rendition of that piece, played on my Warmoth Jazzmaster. I learned to play it straight through using my Boomerang looper, as the guy in the video does, but for this recording I recorded the looper separately to allow for more flexibility in mixing. I hope you'll enjoy it!
