Chega de Saudade | Solo Guitar Cover

A classic, a style definer, a piece that defies times. I give you "Chega de Saudade", the masterpiece by Jobim and Vinicius. I finally got a chance to shoot a video of my version that I've been playing for so many years. I really hope you guys enjoy it. Let me know what you think in the comments.
PS: I'm sorry for the ridiculous reverb at the video intro! :-) Forgot to mute some button and the mess was done already hahaha. Enjoy!
Let me know what you guys think of the arrangement, discounting my reverb debacle :-)

Thank you so much for the love everyone! A heads up for those who have been asking for the PDF transcription - YES, it's coming! I'm revising the transcription at me moment and I will be releasing it through my website store. It will most likely be bundled with a lesson/ tutorial going through the arrangement and all that. Really excited about it! Stay tuned for when I make it available. I will definitely mention that in my social medias but I will also make a pinned post here and add the links on the description of the video. Thank you again for the support and let me know what other Brazilian songs you would like me to cover. All The Best to you! GS 🙏🏼🎸👊🏻

[@romzrr]

When?!

[@danielemartinelli5359]

I finally managed to learn your beautiful interpretation of this song. I definitely want to buy a 7 string guitar, which is quite difficult to find here in Italy. Thank you for all the wonderful material you share.

I've heard all the greats but Gabriel may be the greatest of them all! His playing is mesmerizing and draws you in with his flawless technique and uncanny reharmonization of standards we all love. I just discovered this guitarist a couple of days ago and what a Christmas gift Ive received.

[@JuanDhas]

One of my favourite tunes, period. Really loved your version, Gabriel. Hearing you play always makes me think about getting a 7-string Nylon hahaha!

[@GabrielSantiago]

I’m glad to hear you enjoy it Juan! Yeah the 7 String is such a trip to play, you should definitely get one. Thank you so much for plugging in. Best GS

[@JuanDhas]

@@GabrielSantiago Always happy to support. Love what you do, and hope we get to meet at some point in the future. Could you actually give any recommendations as to where to look for 7 string nylons (my knowledge is a little limited on that front)?

[@GabrielSantiago]

@@JuanDhas Hi Juan, I would say the best ones are the custom made one by luthiers. Mine is from a Brazilian Luthier named Carlos Novaes. There are a vast number of builders here in the US that can build one for you, but it’s definitely gonna be a little pricy. There are a few factory ones you can get, not that great but if you just wanna have something to get used to it, it might be a good option. Bartolex is one modelo, cordoba I think has something too. Just go to Amazon and you will find something like that. Or if you want some luthier kinda thing let me know and I can recommend some. Best GS

[@JuanDhas]

@@GabrielSantiago Thanks so much for the response, Gabriel!
