looks like a Fender Jazzmaster, because of the humbuckers in a Jaguar body, but you'd PROBABLY be able to see the "fender" on the headstock if it was, so it's probably kinda/really custom
LOl! Kazumi is a master player--and if his avante garde phrasing throws you off...don't blame him! His timing is impeccible, his phrasing is revolutionary, and his musicality is beyond reproach. Check out "Walk, Don't Run" from his very 1st album "Mobo I" circa mid-80's--he's genius.
Kazumi is a wonderful player! He's not to blame for the instrumental background which forces him to limit his improvisation. I think he's doing great also at 1:47.
What a rip of Benson's version of this classic. Kinda cheesy with the strings in the background and all. And what the heck is the guitarist trying to do at 1:47? Sweep pick?
Did this band try to copy George Bensons version??????? Not as good, but a good try! Please feel free to listen to my version, and the jazz combo bit at the end. Have a nice day

I love the parts where he "led" the rhythm, or hung back just enough to emphasize the groove.
A very good rendition of the classic!

How can some people say that song sucks ? If you wanted to hear techno of course you will be disapointed.
It's a good jazzy song, ideal for people working on some projects and awake at 00:23PM.
Nice video, nice song, keep it up.
