If i'm not mistaken, i thought i saw you using a peculiar tapped harmonic technique. To perform the technique, you placed a finger over the desired node from your picking hand, and plucked it with another finger from the same hand.
The best place to see the "weird" bit is around 1:40. Watch the little finger on my left hand. You'll see it pluck the E string and you'll hear a high "E" harmonic. But that isn't the octave harmonic, its the two-octave harmonic. So, the capo isn't making that one. If you look very closely, you'll see the index finger of my right hand reach down and touch the harmonic point on the E string over the sound hole. Normally, you'd get that harmonic at the 5th fret, but this was easier.
beautiful. this is the music I want to listen to while walking through the woods.

Hey Bob! I got a question for you?
What tuning is this in? I would very much like to learn how to play this piece.
thanks

Fascinating. I can hear something weird you're doing, but I can't catch you doing it.

Hard to say. I have a nasty habit of stopping for years (even decades) at a time. But I started at age 10 and that was 37 years ago.
