    I had at least four moments watching this where I just said "Wow!" to myself and chuckled a little at how effortless you make this look. Incredible nuance and expression, and man, what a groove! Bravo.

    Wonderfully musical... not just variation in technique because you can. Thanks.

    One of my favorite tunes of Eric, distinctive and one of a kind harmonics picks 👍

    • @EricSkyeMusic
      @EricSkyeMusic  Рік тому +1

      Harmonics are almost a nervous tick for me now. I don't even notice I'm doing that until I'm putting together the video

    Love it. I really don’t g it when you play the stuff I wouldn’t expect to hear on an acoustic steel string.

    Thanks Eric, enjoying this "new old" version very much. :-) Recording sounds great as well. Have you experimented with comparing this to XY recording (possibly with an angle greater than 90°)? Depending on the room one or the other might work a bit better.

    • @EricSkyeMusic
      @EricSkyeMusic  Рік тому

      Thanks Nick. I'm not a fan of X/Y on solo guitar. Sometimes I use ORTF though. And spaced pair. It's good to me.

    you will be recognized immediately by the first sound. Whether it is up to the SC? I have to try it.

    • @EricSkyeMusic
      @EricSkyeMusic  Рік тому

      Thanks for that. Having a recognizable tone is a very high compliment indeed.
