That is pretty sweet. I’d seen this on Farcebook, it really is a wonderful rendition.
Fantastic playing, but you have to ask how much the sound has been edited. Call me a cynic, but some of the sounds coming out in the recording, don't match the movements in the videos!
I still don't understand why people loop the strings like that at the headstock, that just seems lazy, even if they are changing strings every other week.
Hey Zandit, you may be right about some overdubs but you gotta give him credit for the overall sound and also how sweet it sounds.
I have seen Tommy Emmanuel live playing with his brother Phil back in 1986 where they did all sorts of crazy things and Tommy was a master of the percussive stuff on his acoustic, just like this bloke, whilst also playing riffs, licks, chords, etc. Best trick was when he and brother Phil played the necks one each other's guitars whilst play licks on their own.....unbelievable.
Here is Tommy doing his one man band on TedX...

Agreed Waz, he certainly has a heap of talent, I wonder how many strings he goes through tweaking the tuners like that!!
