Holy smoke! The best playing I've seen in a long time! Thanks for the lesson (but after seeing this I think I'll sell my instruments and go back to my daytime job...).
This is totally frustrating for a relative beginner- after a LONG intro it all moves so fast with no proper explanation of the fingers or order of them used in plucking
Thank you for making this video , excellent song and you are very helpful in your teaching style . Im going to check out all of your vids. I am just crazy about doc watson [ I know hes only one of many greats to do this song]Please carry on
Yeah, go for it! I have always dreamed of owing one too. They start from 12 k at the moment (I'd bet this is a Brazilian rosewood Franklin, and I think it is/was owned by Stefan Grossman). Anyway, Duck is truly great, it is a pity he plays mostly nylon string guitar nowadays.
this guy is a beast. i got one of his instructional vids from the library. it's hard to follow if you don't have a solid grasp of the right hand technique(he doesn't explain it), which i didn't have at the time and at times it is sstill very challenging especially the improv. Practice Practice Practice.
Dear Duck. I´ve been listening to your musical interpretations as well as creative stuff since the late 70´ies. Carry on soldier. Thats "swing" all over the line. Catching, no matter whatever style you choise to perform. Unique tecnique. Unique creative addition of your own. Unique approach an´ personal sound. Always loved your sharpness an´ musical perception. Apparently you seem to be a fine teacher too. Would like to purchase your stuf just to maintain a dream.....The guitar lives
he does funk it up a bit much....but if you were sitting around with the fellas and you wanted to tweak them a bit it would be nice to have a few of those to put them in thier place.
Yes, Stefan Grossman, thank you so much. Would love to see you playing your new signature edition Martin. I love my Madagascar Martin and look forward to playing your model.
Sweet! I love trying to follow your fingers on this., Great job!

Really good. The improvisation was nice and it didn't interfere with the momentum of the song.

He tinkered with the original song a little too much in my opinion, but did some really nice additions as well. All in all great video.
