This guy is good! A lot like John Butler Trio. Awesome stuff. Seen JBT live a few times and at the last each band member gave a long solo. Amazing. |

this type of guitar playing is called fingerstyle. There's actually quite a few extremely talented artists, Andy Mckee, Justin King, to name a couple.I would kill to have that talent. |

The main thing thats different about his guitar is it's much like a Chapman Stick, it's got an extremely low action, which allows for a lot more precision and dynamic control over how he's playing. Other than that, it's like playing 6 pianos at once, really. Hammering on and pulling off notes, strumming partially, quickly tapping the harmonics. It would take a lot of practise to get anywhere near his level of that style of playing. |

At least ten fingers? I didn't see him using any more than that. |

Not too many people can pull that off. (Eh? Eh?)On a side note, pretty fantastic playing. Really hard to do without amplification, and I'm pretty sure he's got some kind of amp on that thing. |

There is nothing special about his guitar, he is however using an alternative or open tuning. It is difficult to play that way, but with lots of practice it can be done. I have achieved a little sucess with this style, but no where near what he can do. |

I would cry repost, but it was posted like 2-3 years ago, so I don't care. Still awesome! Still makes me look at my guitar and want to punch myself in the face. |

aniray, use harmonics, a plugged in guitar, and a pick helps (take the top of the pick and hit it against the strings inbetween frets. not sure if its considered tapping) |
