    kent you are the birelly lagrene ,the jimmy rosenberg, the michael jackson , the elvis presely and frank sinatra ,(to mention a few) of fingerstyle .. no one else of all fingestylist can reproduce what you can..Being a fingerstylist for over 40 years finally someone produces something what every gitarist wishes we could do on a guitar.. Moreover you reproduce the whole band including all its finesses having the balls to use alternate tuning to sound like the original bands they way you play this bass line where you stop it from ringing is amazing keeping all the other parts swinging at the same time.. so incredibly good ... im glad to be alive and witness this magic

      @@beanlegume9965 I’ve seen so many people comment such bogus claims that he “over-dubs” in his arrangements, and it’s simply not true. These are the same people who don’t even play guitar.
      He doesn’t add extra bass in the videos, he uses an octave pedal (Boss OC-3) which gives the lower strings that extra bass guitar sound. With some post effects work to further enhance the sound.
      And given that this arrangement is in a baritone tuning further enhances the bass notes in this video.
      So please, shut up.

    In my world only you…
    Make me do for love what you would not do
