You know, that really isn't bad for a beginner. Obviously you need work, but you figured out TEMPO and that is something most non-pro jazz guitarists never get. There were mistakes, but I can tell there is a tempo going on in your head while you play.
I would imagine as a bass player, player guitar with a tempo would just be a given. For some reason, non-pro jazz guitarists believe that if the use a metronome, they will sound stiff and stale. But if they can't keep up with a tempo, what are they doing.
Keep up the good work!

Thanks a lot , your opinion is important to me

I agree with eh. Not sure how long you've been playing, but if it has been less than a year you are doing really well.

I am not a new to a guitar but mostly played a bass, my main problem is how to put fatty fingertips on one tinny string
-
I can tell you've been playing guitar for a while, I just meant beginning jazz. as for fatty fingertips, there are as many advantages as disadvantages.

eh, can you play two notes with one finger? not a barre, but like this:
XX5546
3x443x
with only 3 fingers? I have always wished I could do that. My fingers are too thin.

You are doing very well. Your guitar is the spit and image of my first electric archtop. Best value in the archtop world. Gave it to my grandson, who lent it to his sister's husband, who uses it for his shows. Just keepin' it in the family. Enjoy!
