  • Thats is correct yamaha, there cut out on dif strings to tune it on to to get the cool chords he does

  • why is he moving the capo behind the capo's ? me no understanding

  • @sake02 I believe they are cut to only hit certain strings.

  • Comment removed

  • This guy is beyond amazing. The things he can do with a guitar! Wow :D

  • i dont see the sense in moving the capo so many times , your not even using them all? someone help me out here

  • Comment removed

  • @teabaggersmakemepuke i'm assuming he has the rubber cut out so that each capo only covers certain strings, leaving the others free. that way he can hold some strings down while leaving others free to play either open or much lower (you can get a similar effect by putting a regular capo on the neck so that it is barely on and leaves the last two strings open - i play a few songs like that)

  • 23 pplz tried garden hanger clips on guitar ha ha ha sending love all the way from INDIA

  • THAT'S ABSOLUTELY AMAZING !!!!!!!!

    HOLY SHIT :D

  • bedazzled!!

  • ornate capo knack, emotion of the song ignored

  • im in love

  • AMAZING !!!!!!! that is all i can say....

  • Finally, someone original. This guy is great. It is amazing who you find by accident.

  • @eqsmooth Or Amazing who you find by destiny

  • @MazFamilyVentures You lost me with that destiny/fate crap. That is for those who think Star Wars is real. Most things are accidental. In any case this guy seems to possess original musical intuition and doesn't seem to be playing on novelty like say, Stanley Jordan or that awful sax player, Kenny G.

  • @eqsmooth you may believe that destiny is crap, but i don't. Life is certainly not accidental.

  • @MazFamilyVentures really, so how do you prove that? Wait a minute, we'll get back to that after you pack your shit and move to China. They sell more FATE in ASIA than they do apothecary items and tiger balm.

    Look, it was an accident that you born whatever color you are. You didn't choose it and don't tell me God chose your ethnicity. Predestination is such bullshit. Let's leave it at "this guy is a great musician".

  • @eqsmooth agree he is a great musician! we have common ground! now on the other stuff- sounds like we can choose to disagree.

  • @eqsmooth You're a fool to believe that there isn't an omniscient being. Our entire GALAXY is but a mere speck in space as there are billions more. To think that such a thing CANNOT exist is idiotic because of how large, or even infinitely large the universe is. Think about this; of the 3 billion people on earth, MOST find a single person that is a perfect match for them. You cannot believe running into them, out of the 3 billion people on this earth is purely coincidence.

  • @BrainsYour BRAINS are on drugs. What does God, omniscient beings, fate, perfect matches and your massively underestimated idea of the population of the earth have to do w/anything? THERE ARE ALMOST 7 BILLION PEOPLE ON THIS PLANET. Time to thin the herd? You stupid f-ck, you missed the mark by 4 MILLION people! More than half the married couples get DIVORCED & most who stay married are unhappy enough to CHEAT. There are NO perfect matches. Who is the idiot? Who is the fool? Unbelievable!

  • @eqsmooth And next time you call me a stupid fuck, be sure to not make a mistake. I missed the mark by 4 BILLION, not 4 MILLION.

  • @zXBrainsXz At least mine was a typo, yours was willful ignorance. And that is a galactic sin, turd brains.

  • @eqsmooth Lol. First off, turd brains? You need to grow up or mature a tad more. Secondly, you still didn't argue my space arguement. Finally, I wouldn't consider this ignorance since the world population isn't considered "common knowledge". Re-educate yourself before arguing.

  • @zXBrainsXz Our world's population which can be followed by birth all day everyday or look it up on wikipedia is NOT common knowledge? Please shoot me. You are a fucking retard. Please get help, read an encyclopedia, talk to your mom, get breast fed. Do something like put a rifle in your mouth. We cannot be equal. You should not breathe my air.

  • @eqsmooth The funniest thing, is that it really isn't common knowledge. It doesn't come up in everyday conversations whatsoever and if you are looking it up on wikipedia during your free time, you need to invest some of YOUR time into a hobby or go out more often. I am clearly not mentally disabled, I do not require any professional help, I talk to my mother every day, and I passed the breast feeding stage about 15 years ago. I won't put a rifle in my mouth because I am not suicidal.

  • @eqsmooth And the fact that you think that two human beings are not equal and that I deserve to die proves that YOU are the person who needs to be better educated, not I. And you STILL haven't argued my space fact, and let's face it, it's because you cannot argue something so undeniably true.

  • what a great guitar player wtf i love it so much.....

  • This guy has a capo fetish :D

  • drags on a bit though bundy boy!

  • awesome !

  • Oh wow...22 people accidentally hit the dislike button...Thats embarrassing...

  • sick acoustic song /watch?v=o5hsnHaZuvw

  • the best non-asian i seen play the guitar

  • Why does everyone feel the need to dissect and analyze what this amazing young man is doing?! This is truly amazing and he should just be given credit and no more BS!!

  • Did he cut chunks out of the capos?

    Or can you buy those like that, I play bass so I know nothing of specialized capos o_O

  • Beautiful song to listen to.

    But much more enjoyable to watch.

  • This Man is a Master with this instrument!!!!! Wow I cant stop staring!!!.... Dreamy

  • why the fuk is he useing 3 capos haha

  • Can anyone tell me what kind of capos he's using? I want to try to figure this out on my guitar

  • What album is this on? And if its not on a album...where/how can i get it? I really want this on my ipod =] Its so relaxing.

  • Interesting use of the capo

  • I thought this said 'Ted Bundy playing his love song'

  • I Am Speechlesss... !!!!

    My Jaw is just open now !! omfg! amazing ! outstanding ! phenomenal !

  • Absolutely fantastic!!!

  • /watch?v=dwFx5V7S64A

  • Some parts of the track sound similar to Patience by GNR and Little Wing by Jimmy... Still great work though, especially with those capos.

  • wtf you talkin about?

  • I know why this is called "love song"

    it's because i'm loving it!

    very very nice!

  • Wow! He is beautiful!

  • He is fvcking amazing!

  • Whats the name of the song at the end called? The one where the guitar notes are played backwards.

  • kkennett-I'm prettys sure its retroverse

  • Where is he from? It's incredible.. Love this song.

  • amazing! i've never seen anyone play quite like that.

  • That is just sick!! AWESOME! :)

    You da man, Trace!!! ;)

  • how does one even begin to create a song like this...

    talentttttttttt

  • Nice Breedlove my friend! Only company besides Santa Cruz I buy from.

  • ya he cuts holes in his capos so they only hold down a couple of strings

  • im pretty sure he doesnt cut holes in it^^ you can buy every capo he uses

  • there's no cut hole, its just a five string capo,

  • sau geil! amazing!

  • e isso q n me deixa eu largar meu violao!!!

  • is that black capo for harmonics?

  • TheJerwy: What do you mean its not hard? Why dont you compose a song and incorporate 4-5 capo's in it. Its REALLY hard to compose a song like this.. what more play it...

  • your crazy his music is great and i dont know what your listening to because when i listen to his music i dont hear anything messy

  • its great, i just wish it sounded a little more connected, had smoother chord changes.

  • :O what i wanna be is ... there

  • So is the black capo not pressing down all the strings? Cause otherwise wouldn't movin capos/ touching strings further towards the head (beyond the capo) produce no different effect?

  • Not all capos are the same. ;)

    You have specific capo's for pressing one or more strings down. :)

    I don't know where do buy them, but ask for them in a music shop if you want one, they can help you.

  • its a customize capo. . . in other vids you will see that al tho its presing theres a missing rubber part of it.. this vid as bad frame rate so you cant see...

  • it's a cut capo, it's only on 3 strings i believe

  • O_O it's incredible!!

  • big musician

  • amazing

  • anybody know where i can find the song playing from 5:05 onwards? I know the song is "phantom of the opera" played backwards, but i can't seem to find it anywhere.

  • That song during the credits is "Bristlecone", on his Adapt album. Also, check out "Retroverse" on his Missile Bell album. That whole song is based on Phantom of the Opera, played backwards.

  • I can't find Retroverse anywhere on youtube, do oyu have a link to it?

  • This is a really beautiful song that shows some of Trace's masterful skill.

    Question though: why are 'kaki hedges king jake mckee ukulele' tags for this song?

  • what tunings are all his capos. one looks like DADGAD

  • i think its his standard tuning :)

  • na it cant be. bc its sounds different every time he puts a different one on.

  • lol)

  • the one thing that i like bout him is that most of his songs are always very interesting...as in the way he plays them, his songs also sound amazing too

  • lost in the music....

  • so much creativity ... probly alot of practise too

  • Oh to be serenaded like that.

  • Love the part at 2:30

  • 3 capos?? wow

  • yeah...i dont get why he's constantly moving around those two capo that doesn't really do anything...maybe changing strings' tension? i'm not sure, but it sure looks fancy, lol

  • hate to correct you

    But there are such things as partial capos. If you pay attention to the note hit on the open bottom e string it changes with the two capos. I didn't check to see if it changed any other tho

    Watch at 1:25

    You see him move the silver capo, note drops. He uses his thumb between the black and silver capo and changes the note, the black capo has a notch cut out or just missing so it doesn't effect the bottom e string.

  • Yeah. What he's doing is changing one or two string's "open" note sound at a time. He's simply adjusting a single string for a different bass note. And the chord variation is much clearer. Try this song yourself, without using any of those capos, just get a 6 string, and try it. You'll be able to hear, feel, and see the difference.

    Trace is just skilled with the capos. I started learning this song the day I heard it.

    And without all those capos, good luck.

  • @Dgc2003 what is your problem men..? eheheh.., that is what you call style and technique... make your own.. ^^ don't mind someone who made theirs.. ^^

  • thanks for this song guy...

    amazing

  • feel like i'm in china lol but very nice

  • excuses

  • ...but wat

  • But I'm not a genius

  • This man explores sound, i'd like to do it too, but...

  • but who

  • love youre style

  • amazing song

  • I just want to live in this song forever!

  • I think this is the tune from the 'nike' advert I've been trying to identify for years, could it really have been this tune? Wasn't this originally Hendrix?

  • Nah he composed this on his own, but I know what you are talking about I forget the name but one of Jimi's originals sounded alot like this.

  • Thanks mate - namaste

  • this guy is awesome he is infuencing pretty much everythin i play right now.... check out my vids i have a couple of trace bundy 'homages' among other songs feel free to comment

  • i didt understand the whole capo thing...if u have a capo on say the 3rd fret...anything u play on 2 or 1 cant be heard so it seemed odd that he kept moving the other 2 capos...

  • trace custom makes his own capos, he cuts knotches in the capos to where the strings pass freely through the capo allowing different tunes instead of the standard capo sound... and he moves each capo up and down the fret board to change the tune.. i actually tried this before and it is actually prett cool, just the hard part is trying to get the right knotches so it wont sound like a guitar out of tune but once i got it, it was amazing how creative you can get with a guitar..

  • I don't understand too because my little brother uses only 2 capos when he plays this song .. so why Trace Bundy needs more than 2 ?

    I should learn this song today, maybe I'll understand by myself ...

    (btw sorry for my English if I did mistakes !)

  • how the hell does he play so well............must be alienated or somethin.....lol

  • If I was in his position and trying to play this song, with all the rocking about I'd probably drop my guitar :X

  • crazy props for messin with the capos like that just amazing

  • Wow that was really good! I'm trying to teach myself the guitar. Maybe I can get that good!

  • very good but enough with the capos...we get it ur good at guitar. loved it

  • i really like this.

    after just 2 minutes it felt like i had been listening for 10.

  • I hate to love Trace Bundy for making this look so easy! :(

  • lol =)) he change the capo, on mel...weird :)) but still gr8

  • fabuleux

  • I'm actually mad that it ended haha. Great song.

  • wow this touched me so deep!

  • wow..he's using 3 capo....bravo bravoo...trace bundy...i love you

  • The guy's got talent and the gift. Keep it up *double thumbs up*

  • nice man nothing to say!!! you rock! woo00o0oo

  • fucking unbelievable, the best song ever made in acoustic, love this song!!!!!!!! :)..

  • I think that he just uses a different way of playing. So he uses a lot of capos, that does not make him a bad guitarist. Do you think you could play like him, with feeling and accuracy, with or without a capo? I highly doubt it. Give the man some respect, he plays differently, not bad.

  • I think the one on the 5th. fret has to be a partial capo.

  • i try not to burst into tears listening to this song. he's just soo passionate.

  • love love love love

  • SO NASTY DUDE!

  • what an immortal song

  • m not arguing with all those ppl who revealed andy mckee, dufour, ross as a guitar god on fingerstyle well i simply agree with this but the way trace plays is breathtaking.touches the soul.n how does he know bout my feelings? lol:-P...he dropped me nowhere

  • quick question (to anyone who can help!): whats with all the capo's - I mean, if he has one on the 5th fret (i think), what difference would it make if the strings from the 5th to first fret are "cappoed"?

  • Some of his capos are partial, so when he moves one behind a partial capo only the non-capoed strings above change, but they do. Neat huh?

  • that's some violent love...

  • thats epic first time in my life i see guitar player use all of these capos and his style is just awesome

  • ive never seen someone use 3 capos on 1 guitar.....

  • look up "Hot Capo Stew" by the same guy...

    five. capo. greatness.

  • Thanks for not

    heart heart 4H

  • this guy got mad skillz

  • :0 sheeeeet, thats awesome

  • amazin he plays with the capo and fingers

  • waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

    addict!!(thats a bigtime compliment)

    Master,GM

    /Respect

  • holy shit. i've never seen anyone play musical capos before

  • awesome...love all of your stuff

  • wow! OMG amazing!

  • this vid made me speechless.. amazing skills, and an amazing song

  • holy crap dude. my guitar teacher used to joke about me having to movee a capo half way through a song just to hit a powerchord, and you did that to an extreme. kudos

  • DUDE!!!! YOU HAVE SPEND A lot of TIME with your guitar, and that is Amazing keep it up!!!!

  • Brill! 5 stars!

  • Ive never seen anyone utilize their instrument like that. sounds amazing.

  • omg ^^ he even does the heartbeat lol , amazing

  • I played classical guitar for one year and got thru grade 8 and then some and got some impressive repertoire then I gave it away like an idiot for no reason oh man. I wish I could play this to the girl whose my fav, amazing expression, what an artist

  • amazingggggggggggggggggggggggg­ggggg

  • Thats amazing dude

  • Hey, this is some of the most unique playing styles I've seen.

    Totally awesome!

  • Wow your great and any girl that your with you should play her to sleep

    ♥kenisha♥ and yes people should respect everyone and him

  • I love Trace Bundy so much . . he's such a great guy. My family was lucky enough to enjoy a private concert when he played at my sister's wedding. I have so much respect for him as an artist and more importantly as a human being. Three cheers for Trace and other independent arists!!!

  • Ladies and Gents,Richard Lewis/Jimmy Chamberlain look-a-like, Trace Bundy and his mastery of the capo......

  • Very creative and original...and definitely talented...

  • better than tuck andres

  • so wish i could play like that :]

  • Doesn't the capo at the bottom cancel everything out. Or does it a special capo that covers only some strings?

  • thats exactly right. he has custom capos

  • well you can actually buy some of the capos he uses like the Kyser "drop d" capo and their "short cut" capo. but ya some of his capos he customized himself

  • oh I remember this song he asked my school when he came to play for us to help him name this song we just said it was a love song.

  • fucking amazing...

    this guy is creative as fuck

  • capo master!

  • capo madness

  • holy fuck!

  • Holy freaking crap. I max at 2 capos, and usually they remain stationary

  • god, or doctor,BUT! please! give me his hands!!!

  • The way he uses his capos is so creative. :D

  • That's not something he learnd how to play. He must have been born with that gift. Is amazing. It's magic. Just the way he really understands music, the feeling he plays it with is A and O when he play a song. Wonderful

  • I thinkk i'm in love!!

  • This guy is very good and talented with his work. Never before have i seen someon move is capos around to create a diversity of sounds. bravo! what is the ending song? i would like to know so i can use it to my ending skate video part?
