    So I remember learning the piece 'Granada' by Albenez and thinking how important it was to have those 2 independant lines going on and thats a difficult piece to pull off, but this guy is ridiculous, this Bach stuff is difficult with two guitars, never mind someone trying to play all the notes using a two neck guitar, technique aside the music is tricky as f*ck becuase it all moves in counterpoint so you've bass lines ascending and treble lines descending, just look at his face, now thats what i call concentration....

    Whilst i admit that stuff is very impressive technically i just can't see the point in playing like that simply as the tone just isn't nice at all! if you want to play like that play a piano!
    Though there are a few guitarist i really like who use the old two hand tapping technique (michael hedges especially) that stuff just doesn't do it for me.

    yeah the quality of the recording isn't great, and the tone comes with the compression and is a necessary evil but the music is amazing (closest thing I've to reproducing bach on the guitar and I've heard an unbelievable amount of classical guitarists who just omit too many notes to make it work on six strings the technique is better than just impressive btw the guy is an animal

    listen with your eyes closed..

    hes past practising more or less, he fine tunes that technique now, his brain hears a lot of stuff, he must have incredible inate musicality to pull this off the more i listen the better it sounds, the fellas a fu*king genius

    I had to watch it twice ! I couldn't stop laughing when I saw his face the first time around, I was still giggling when I played it a second time. Pretty impressive though ;)
