Even though the open B string is very akward in G minor this lick still works. It is
important to realize that the open string is there just for rhythmic purposes: you can play
this lick in other keys by simply changing the first two notes of every triplet and keeping
the open string!

Beautiful lick, typcial Django. Stochelo playes most of it with Django's original fingering with two fingers. For
some reason this fingering feels right for this lick, even if you have four fingers to play with!

Stunning lick and one of Stochelo's favourites to play over long stretches of a minor chord (like "So What" or
"Impressions"). The use of the fourth finger might seem strange but somehow it feels very comfortable

Another staple in Stochelo's arsenal of minor licks! A ascending minor arpeggio followed by
a descending minor melodic scale (with the F-sharp and the E) in thirds.
