    Playing that fast on an acoustic guitar is no mean feat. In fact it's extraordinarily fast.

    • @STSGuitar16
      @STSGuitar16 5 років тому +9

      I agree, metal shredders and sweep pickers need to step aside. Doing what they do is _easy_ compared to playing this fast and clean on an acoustic. The distortion and the fact that electric guitar is easier to play in general really, really helps shredders play fast. With acoustic flatpicking, you have none of those crutches at all and have to pick every single note perfectly clean or it is obvious that you flubbed a note (with electric guitars, flubbed notes aren't as obvious). Real crazy talent here. Put this guy on an electric guitar and he could easily shred as fast or faster than the best of them, no problem.

    • @RADIOACTIVEBUNY
      @RADIOACTIVEBUNY 4 роки тому +2

      STSGuitar16 I’m not so sure about that, as he’s never actually move his fingers as fast as the electric greats do. Many of them, at least at the way top, if you turn off their distortion it’s still very clean.
      But there is definitely fudge factor that you get with electric guitars and I’d put this guy’s level of precision on par with the top 10% of the very best electric guitar players no doubt.
