I offered to buy my 5 year old a real guitar as we were jamming around with toys in her room. She said "Girls don't play guitar Dad, only boys do." I said "Nuh uh! I'll show you my favorite!" Thanks Kaki for being not only a girl that plays but, a bad ass one!
Kaki King uses a full size guitar. I saw her in a video telling the audience that those fortunate enough to meet her after the show should refrain from remarking on her shortness ... that the stage was like an optical illusion giving her height and that her guitar was not oversize it's just that she is small. She was quite philosophical at points and engagingly funny. Excellent performer and such a talent!
If you're still active, she has been trying to break out from that mold for many years. She recently broke out in a very interesting way, not so much with effects but with visuals. She kinda does all the things you love her for not doing, but it works pretty well. I particularly love the unspoken stories the visuals tell. Look up "projection mapped kaki king" if you're interested.
@@tc_0 I agree but in all fairness it's still a very clean and natural-sounding expression. Doesn't even sound like there's any added reverb. Ovations are pretty well-known for sounding great live and didn't need any dramatic EQ, especially since it's her signature model, pre-tuned to her preferences since its conception. One hell of a sexy guitar too. I already own a "dream" guitar and barely even play anymore and I still want one. Just wanna put it on my wall and drool at it.
2024!!! C'est une merveille ce morceau Kaki Tu étais venu à Marseille en France il y a quelques années Le concert que tu avais donné était exceptionnel !!! Merci
I'm so lucky I got to see her right when "dreaming of revenge" came out. She played from there and some old classics from around the time Goby came out as well. Simply wonderful playing and such am inspiration to all female(and male) guitarists!!! She's one of my top 3 guitar players. ❤
++ A new find on youtube. I'm stoked. My partner suggested Isearch for this artist. She was so right. Amazing humble playing. I was struck by by how competent but non-flashy this music was. Absolutely brilliant. Keep shining. Luv and Peace.
I remember watching Sunday Arts and thinking how lucky I was for seeing such talent! That was the first time I saw or heard of Kaki King, and now I own two of her albums.
I really can't stop listening to this. I think I'm going to try to learn how to play it....but yes, I love this song. I've listened to it so many times today and it's been stuck in my head - it's really the only thing keeping me sane at work.
this has to be the best version of this song. she really gave it her all in this performance not that she doesn't in general but this versions my favorite
It looks like an Ovation Elite TX 1778TX-4CS. I use Ovation guitars , have 4 of them. Love the unique tonality and projection of both bass, and treble harmonics.
Have a bunch written down, not complete yet as I got sidetracked by some home projects, but I will finish the song at some point and get the tab to this site for sure.
that sound is not so much from the strings as it is from guitar itself,pickup and preamp..if you like this sound check out ovation roundback guitars,they usually have this kind of punchiness and plastic feel to it,because they make back of guitars round shaped form some kind fiberglass,so from that you get this unique sound.i think kaki also uses ovation but i'm not sure...anyway google it if you wanna know more :)
olé Kaki!de la sensibilité ,cette nana!c'est vraiment bien!!!toujours aussi cash,et fin,sweety et groovy,elle s'est vraiment donné et faire passer sa zique avec un énorme feeling!ostil
God bless the Tappers. Preston Reed and Michael Hedges were the first I ever heard. They just coming up with new ideas and tunings. Kaki is wonderful imho.
Wow! I am in love! Finger-pickin', polytonal harmonic, rhythm slappin' l-o-v-e!! Such a rich sound!! Kudos, Props, and appreciation - you got it! NEW fan here!
Hello. I've included a link to a fine interview Kaki did with Premier Guitar Magazine in the info section under the clip screen. She talks about her fingernails and lots of other stuff.
She actually started out playing drums before switching to guitar. That explains a bit about why her music is so percussive, and i don't think she picked up the guitar until high school, or even after.
She's not playing Ovations per se, but Adamas by Ovation, which although from the same makers are a very different guitar. Primarily the top is carbon graphite and has the tone that so many top players choose, as opposed to the wood topped Ovations. The piezo sound you've had a problem with has to do with their choice of pickup and most of the upper line Ovations and Adamas come with a better sounding system now.
Just finding this in 24 !!
Very happy for you.
I'm watching in 2020!! I used to love this song. 13 years later and I'm so happy I remembered it!!
I'm still coming back to this song ;D
@@sanctipaprichio
the same :)
@@Ben-en7iz :^)
I think I heard it 11 years ago.
Same. Cant forget her name... Kaki means "turd" in Hebrew lol: קקי

This is true musicianship at its finest. NO electricity, NO pedals, NO tricks or gimmicks, just raw sound.
That guitar is a hybrid lol you can literally see the electric cord running from her guitar

In an interview Kaki did with Premier Guitar Mag in July 2010 the strings she uses on her acoustics are listed as .012-.053 Elixir Polywebs.
Kaki King, one of the most amazing guitarists I've ever come across. And I'm glad I did.
this young lady has got some serious talent, salute
god knows how many times i have watched this
There is probably a comment on this vid from maybe 8 years ago with my name on it. You can listen to a song many many times in 8 years :)
Google knows too
Shoshy Boo real passion is something to be in aw of and observe in repetitive patterns.
same, i've kept coming back and showing this to people.
This is still the craziest playing I’ve ever seen. Love this song it has a melodic charm to it that never gets old
See Marcin Patrzałek Polish guitarist, the best in the world

Great song! I wish it was on google play store! The acoustic version is so much richer than the album version.

This song/video is the literal definition of beautiful
One of the most exciting guitar masterpiece I've ever seen.. 5 star to you kaki
Wow ~ such an amazing guitar player! I assumed Kaki King would be much older. So gifted, and her playing is a true gift to us all.
Her music is both beautiful and odd. I'm totally in-love with her guitar playing! Amazing...
Micheal Hedges and Kaki King -- two of my fav acoustic stars. She is Fn awesome .. never fails to inspire and impress.
So beautiful. So talented. Mesmerizing!
I'm so obsessed with this song. Kaki King is wonderful.
Hands down my favorite version of this song! I wish I could download it.
It looks like an Ovation Elite TX 1778TX-4CS.
I use Ovation guitars , have 4 of them. Love the unique tonality and projection of both bass, and treble harmonics.
I love to to hear Kaki play guitar.
Amazing! This is the best version of Goby I've seen on UA-cam or anywhere else.
Saw her perform this live and she was amazing!
Utterly Amazing.
i adore her sincerety. this girl's got a soul
i love how its based around a single lick but it never get old or repetitive. even though its almost 4 minuets long.
Oh, she is so good.I am so glad that I discovered her.
This is unbelievable. She emits much feeling with what she plays.
She's very talented what she can do with a guitar is amazing and beautiful! I love this song!

Excellent playing!
She actually started out playing drums before switching to guitar. That explains a bit about why her music is so percussive, and i don't think she picked up the guitar until high school, or even after.
That's one interesting tuning...great song.
amazingly beautiful...
i love kakiking

@Maikel04 i believe those are finger picks.
@Biake22 Tuning is DADGAD and to find the tab just look on the Kaki King forum
