Very VERY nice dude. I was blown away by Steppin Out when it first came out - the first I'd heard of Eric Clapton. A bit later I saw the Yardbirds when Jimmy Page was with them with his mongo Marshall amp, and I learned that night it was about the sound as much as the licks. You get this, I can see - very nice sustain early on, and a bit of string slap from the Strat just enhances the tone. Keep on keepin on!
Just keep playing and please stay off of motorcycles and out of helicopters and private airplanes. You have a future if you continue to grow your musical soul along with your finger skills. Don't let the easy hype that will certainly come your way during high school go to your head and make you lazy. Success will take work. Study both the roots of this music and it's modern talents.
probably this kid is really good but in this video what u hear is clapton, if you know how to play steppin' out you know that you need a pick cause it's all alternate pickin and if you look at his right hand he's just using his thumb= impossible
ANdy plays classical style and uses all his fingers to play. He does manage to play stuff that most proffessionals could not play without a pic. It does not mean that its not possible its just not possible for most of us! There are a few other very fast and talented guitar players who play classical style (Mark Knopfler) but I Think Andy is in a class by himself.
Congratulations, Slowhand the Second. You are gifted beyond any child I have ever heard. If you like his blues, you should try Stevie Ray Vaughan, maybe even some of claptons other stuff. Your amazing. Keep playing guitar, maybe you'll be discovered one day... or play in NYC in Village Green, which would be amazing. Keep it up and you'll be there in no time!
Andy, you are an AWESOME guitar player! I love everything about how you play. You have style and play like you were born with a guitar in your hands! Thank you much for sharing your talent with us 'tubers!
Its good to see young musicians on here giving it their all, you are exremely talented now, I cant imagine what your going to be like give yourelf another 6 years your going to be phenominal,5555
Great job Andy--a real classic riff. I'm stuck in the house today because of a blizzard, but my YouTube friends are doing a great job of keeping me entertained! Who needs television?
Television? What's that? Oh yeah... That big box over there that looks sorta like a computer monitor? I haven't turned it on for so long the batteries in the remote are probably dead. LOL
I like your right hand style. Good work.

But remember it's not enough to play like... Develop your own music.
The future looks wide open.

well this looks completely fake because in the beginning the music starts before he even has his hand on the guitar
gaara21092 3 years ago
lol, hes playing over the track, you can hear difference in the tone, and sometimes he doesnt play exactly like clapton, it is not fake!
