love your music, focused on learning air tap. Waiting for a new guitar though cause tapping sounds trashy on mine. Also love how ive never heard you play air tap the same twice, once youve learned the basics it really just gives you room to improvise whatever you feel like carrying out at that point! Lovin that sense and your slow motions are something i want to get a good look at! sweet techniques, keep it up. and if theres anything i should know about a new guitar for this style, let me know.
keep doing it anyways, the skin, even on scars, will slowly become desensitized if you keep stimulating it. Maybe start with something less painful than guitar, but you can work out the skin so it won't hurt anymore.
i remember before the 2nd album came out you had these 20 second previews to all your songs. ide listen to them all religiously before the album came out. when are you gona let us hear the next one i cant wait :)
Nice filming & commentary. This video itself is artist as hell. Erik, thanks for sharing your gift. I will buy a Rainsong stricly because of you and the amazing sounds I've heard you produce from them. You're amazing man. Your music....watching you....it really makes a mind think, a person's soul search, and demands emotion from anybody who hears your stuff. Cheers brother.

Erik is super guitarist!!
I was so surprised when I saw his play.
He is a real guitar hero like Eddie,SRV and Jimi.

This is awesome, Erik! I would probably pay twenty dollars for just your lessons.
They describe you on Jamplay as being a "Classic Guitar" instructor, which is something that I'm not entirely sure what to make of.
