Everybody seems to love playing this one! Sweet! It’s a Jon G original. It’s based on Arpeggios in the style of Gypsy jazz great, Django Reinhardt, mixed with a Bach-inspired countermelody.
Yup. Lot’s of big words.
Have a listen to “A Gypsy Harp.”
And here’s a fancy version with an Organ playing Gtr 1 and a Bandoneon playing Gtr 2.

Can you play both parts up to 120bpm? Awesome! Now, go play along with complete tracks at the top of the page. The guitar duo and the organ/bandoneon.
This tune has taught you a lot. Great job!
You now have better control of your right hand picking/plucking and left hand shifting, as well as a nifty tune to bust out!
