    The thing that is awesome about Tosin is he never once says “This is how you should play it” he always says “This is my interpretation of it”. Which helps solidify the idea that guitar playing is an extension of creativity and not just something that can be memorized.

    It is a very overlooked concept, BECAUSE it's so simple. You have to really care to see the little things, which are the best things in life.

    Mr. Abasi,
    Could you please start at the beginning again?

    I used that idea of sliding up and doing a double arpeggio in one of the songs that i recently wrote, awesome to know that Tosin uses it too ;D

      He's very stylish! I wish he would bring back that traditional African garb that he wore at shows during the 'weightless' tours era

    Tymon from Exivious does stuff like this pretty often, as well. I forget the exact name of the video, but it's something like Tymon Exivious 3 Octave Concept.

      +Matt Christensen It Gives a Phaser/light Flanger effect. Check out the Introduction/showcase video on his signature guitar he made a while ago :)

      +Morten Vildhjarta I just saw on the ibanez site that it's a coil tapping switch.

    I'm wondering if those guns are part of his arpeggio technique. Hmmm...maybe it's time to hit those weights. Lawd knows I've tried everything else.

      Nice one but... fortunately, Tosin himself is known to be pretty much nonchalant about the racist stuff. But anyway, let's all knock it off because this might offense someone else.
