The beauty of good archtops played acoustically is too often overshadowed by their electric brothers, and gets forgotten. A sound that's different from both electric guitars and traditional acoustic guitars, but no less beautiful than either, just distinct! It's clear from the way you play it, that you appreciate and adore the beautiful tone that your instrument produces. Well, you and me both, it sounds lovely! Thank you for sharing it with us! ありがとう!
Thanks!! I don’t know many people who play acoustic archtop guitars. Maybe every acoustic archtop players are already friends of mine!!! Hahaha In any case, I want to try to keep this kinda music alive for today’s world! Playing acoustic and electric are totally different!!
Yuji, I cannot understand a word of Japanese, but I understand two musicians talking about the key of the song and having fun while doing a great job of playing it! You and Asaba are an inspiration. This may be my very favorite video so far. 😀👏
@@sigourneyhacks i think two microphones. You can see them on the video, one is ear trumpet labs capturing our talking and slightly our acoustic sound and dynamic microphone capturing only my acoustic guitar. Thanks!

Hi, Steve!! Thanks for watching!! Yeah we talked about what key and who played what key😆👍Your messages mean a lot to me!
Brilliant playing chaps! Love the channel, the suits, the music, and especially the guitars. Great stuff. Keep it up!
Thanks a lot!! Yeah, we love music as well as its culture of that era!!!
If Barney Kessel and Eddie Lang played together it would probably sound just like this
I hope so😆👍I can’t imagine what if Eddie lived longer and took an electric!!!!
Reminds me of the Barnes and Kress duets.
Your playing is beautifully phenomenal! It's such a vibe too. I'm really glad I found your channel and you definitely deserve more subscribers!

Whats the pickup arrangement on Yuji's guitar? Or is it a directional mic? It sounds excellent!

Looks to me like a a Sumi archtop, not a Gibson. Is he still building guitars?
Sadly not any more…. So grab them if you find them!!!!
Bravisimo!!!
