To a person who doesn't play regularly you would think this is all being done live. Nope. It's studio recorded probably took many attempts. Still an awesome acoustic cover tho. A little misleading but you can’t deny this guys talent.
nice job! for anyone else who doesn't speak 'Stricagnolese', "Z&$J4@" translates to C#,G#,C#,G#,B,D# with spider capo on 2nd fret just for B and D# bringing them up to C# and F respectively. Think drop D tuned down an extra half step across the board with the exception of G (up a half) and B (stays put), then capo the highest two on fret 2. P.S. if anyone wants it, that capo is called the "SpiderCapo" (spidercapo.com).
Watching these kinds of videos makes me want to cry out of joy and respect. The hours put and the passion, love towards music, the visualization, imagination. Huge Respect.
+Tankbait Yes and no, the music that you're hearing in the video is pre-recorded and while he IS playing while walking, it probably wouldn't be as good as it sounds in the video.
+Tudor Mihaila I've been lucky enough to see Luca live and to be honest he is even better live. He is absolutely incredible, if you have the chance to see him you definitely should. He can walk, talk and joke while he's playing.
We cover Thunder Struck every now and again the way AC-DC does it. But what gets me, How can anyone who appreciates the guitar dislike your talent? Great job dude!
Angus Fraser HE CAN!! I THINK HE HAS A VID WHEN HES PLAYING A GUITAR IN YIS AND AND THE OTHER GUITAR IT LAYING DOWN ON A TABLE!! ITS SO F@%KING SICK!!! IT AWESOME!!!!!
I never cease to be amazed. I love metal guitar, but Luca has taken acoustics to a new level. I love Paul Gilbert and Joe Satrioni, Vinnie Moore and Steve Vai, most neo-classical rockers, but would put Luca up against them any day. There's nobody like him. He does tribute to most rockers and popular artist by doing their covers. I hope to see him amaze his audiences with an astounding original piece some day, a soon to be Italian classic. We also need to give credit to the mans luthier.
In terms of precision, timing and crystalclear sound you're one of the best I've ever heard. One can easily overplay an acoustic guitar if you want too much....
I've had to say goodbye to so many people, friends, family and caretakers, especially during the pandemic. This song let's me know GOD ain't done with me yet. God bless you so much Luca.❤️
The 590 thumbs down must be from bots that are programmed to hate everything righteous and good for any semi intelligent individual with half an ear for music will recognize the sheer talent and dedication to his craft that brings to the masses the beautiful sounds that are capable from a simple acoustic guitar. i never would have thought to use a guitar in this manner without videos like these to give me ideas. thank you for sharing this awesome talent with the masses, il na kesh my friend
What??? Who in their sane mind would put a thumbs down on this video...?? Just shows how you can't take some comments serious anymore. Some people are just angry, or not right in their mind, or too bored and never learned to be respectful or to be a respectable person. Maybe just a big lack of self worth and a big overdose of egocentric personality issues. Ugh. I've dealt with goofy folks like this on my own site. I had made a little vapor set up on my own generator and it worked, so I shared it, knowing others in my home state might benefit if they want to try it... but some low quality personality came up on the comments telling me it can't work, without even trying to do it themselves. Uh, duh, I have a working one right in front of me and videoed it, so go try it yourself instead of blowing a lot of hot air, right? Oh well, life is too short to waste valuable energy on a negative contrary individual..lol...Wow!! I really should stop typing, I wrote a novel..lol.. Sorry!!!
Nice work... the double-handed tapping/percussion technique reminds me of Preston Reed. I'm surprised he can keep his fingernails so long on his right hand with all the hammering and tapping.
It’s been years since I first watched this and I swear to god it’s still the greatest guitar and even music performance i’ve seen in my whole life. Brilliant, perfection
Every time Luca Stricagnoli plays his guitar, he illustrates the mediocrity of the rest of us. His covers and original music are so enthralling and, at the same time, has such a humbling effect.
I'm sure people tell you how absolutely amazing you are at your instrument and I'm sure you know, but it's only humility that gets a person to this point because they recognize they could always get better. I absolutely love this song and this performance is beautiful.
I've heard this so many times, and now my 2 cents worth : GOOSEBUMPS & TEARY EYES. Some music, whether this, some blues, rock and some reiligious church music brings to my eyes. Just gotta love it.
David Lawrence not to two separate beats, no. I serve on a worship team and we do this song called "All My Fountains". It's got a special clapping rhythm but I need to stop singing if I want to do it ;-;
Awesome freakin job 😃 probably the most incredible guitarist I have ever seen thank you for sharing your talent. From Ian Little - Northern Alberta, Canada
Just filled me with a surge of Happiness that Thunderstruck could be so beautiful on Acoustic as well 🙌🏼🙏🏼🔥 Is there any step-by-step tutorial on this ?
And you thought X-men weren't real. And I thought I could not fall more in love with Luca. OMG. What a blessing to the world. Hey UA-cam - disable the dislike button. The Lion does not concern itself with the opinions of the muskrat.
Luca Stricagnoli had a girlfriend once. Rumor has it that they got intimate, and she said "play me like one of your guitars" She hasnt been seen since. Edit: this comment got more attention than I anticipated. Thanks haha!
He could play music direct from Angels... I can only imagine how well he makes love_lol. That's exactly what he's doing when he plays guitar💖.. #inspiration
The best in the world for all of time . Esp if you have an ear for music , my old was a music teacher he would of loved this . He was into flamenco and classic stuff .
Brandon Ivey they both are cool, but you can do anything on electric guitar with barely any effort. Try playing a Bar chord on acoustic guitar, and then compare it to an Electric guitar. You barely have to even press your fingers on the electric. I love both, but you also have to see the side that Electric is really meant for laying down a chord or a note. Not for beautiful playing like this, which is a lot harder. That’s what I am trying to say. I think electric is a lot more fun to play tho, I personally have more fun jamming out to Blink 182 or Green Day rather then making beautiful melodies (both are refreshing tho).
+Jake Andriuk The visual aspect of the video was quite bland, but I was captivated by the audio. A lot of folks have a difficult time relating to a different artist's interpretation and execution of a "Classic" song, hence the urge to dislike. I found it to be a solid and refreshing rendition masterfully performed.
thirdstone blues you believe that this can be played by millions?? Are you trolling?? 😒 I can play this song pretty good on electric but what this guy does is way beyond what most people can even imagine playing

I know I’m gonna sound like such and ass, but this is not that hard to do
dude how the fuck are you on every video i watch
He doesn't play music, he channels it. Simply incredible. He plays rhythm, lead, melody and drums all at the same time. How?
+David J. Miller That's the magic of a fingerstyle master, you have 6 chords and 10 fingers
+Gabriel Canto A fingerstyle master also got the perks to get all the girls.
Rob Liano absolutely. Great video that happens to mislead just a smidge.

Pretty good fingersyncing in any case

The amount of finger strength he must have is unreal
Classical guitar will do this to your hands. Finger and hand flex at its finest. It's a fun way to play guitar.
+D3V1STATE Gaming amen brother, same goes for piano.
Don't forget the callouses from all the percussive tapping... lol
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
A part of it is a proper guitar setup too, without that finger strength can only take you so far
This is ultimate level performance.He is Highly Talented person.
SHAILENDRA KHARWAR I know,He’s tapping on an acoustic guitar,When tap on a guitar it just goes:
*Squeak*
Watching these kinds of videos makes me want to cry out of joy and respect. The hours put and the passion, love towards music, the visualization, imagination. Huge Respect.
Amen to that.
Hear hear! Roger that :-)
I love how he keeps the beat going yet strums the chords with no change in the beat.
Hours!? i think more like days.or even weeks.
One of the most awesome things I've experienced in my life. This man is so talented.
Thing of true beauty that's for sure .
Watching an artisan performing their art is truly magnificent!

Absolutely amazing. Well done sir.
I have returned to this video and will do so countless times.
Luka made a separate musical work out of a beautiful song.
Bravo maestro!
We cover Thunder Struck every now and again the way AC-DC does it. But what gets me, How can anyone who appreciates the guitar dislike your talent? Great job dude!
They don't. They really like it but jsut don't want to admit it! Jealousy!
like Salierri and Mozart...
Its like his hands are controlled by two different people, he could probably play two guitars at once easily he's so good
he does,check his video "sweet child o' mine ".....
Angus Fraser HE CAN!! I THINK HE HAS A VID WHEN HES PLAYING A GUITAR IN YIS AND AND THE OTHER GUITAR IT LAYING DOWN ON A TABLE!! ITS SO F@%KING SICK!!! IT AWESOME!!!!!
There's even one video where he uses multiple guitars (2 at a time, I guess) to play a song. He even uses his toes!
He already has. 😂 It's brilliant.
He did and it sounds great also watch his version of feel good inc

maybe he attaches the guitar nails to his actual finger nails?
