How many of us have watched Sunga go from a great 10 to 11 year old guitarist to a great guitarist without any qualification. Been a great ride for me!
what is on his right hand fingers? is it guitar picks? it is used instead of long nails or something? :S maybe it's easier to play guitar this way, so I'd like to try it ^^ but don't know exactly what it is.
Sungha wears a thumb pick, and fingerpicks made by aLaskaPiks on his forefinger, middle finger, and ring finger of his right hand. His little finger is used mostly as a brace or a means to keep his hand in proper position.
On many of his older videos, he plays without picks. An MC on a Korean TV show even commented once that Sungha had developed callouses on his fingertips.
By the way, aLaskaPiks provides Sungha with his picks for free, under a sponsorship agreement.
1) The brand name of the picks he uses is clearly stated on the websites kept by him and his dad. You can tell which fingers he wears them on simply by looking at his videos. (?)
2) His dad's site mentions that his fingerpicks are sponsored.
3) If you look at his older videos, you can see that he is not using picks. One of his videos shows him on a TV show, where the MC examines his fingers, and comments on his callouses.
lol getting extremely detailed now. its like your knowledge of sungha is growing as fast as his guitar skills. do u play guitar man? This song is too good anyways. korean songs are the best somehow.
well the thing is, usually a gift comes with another gift of knowing how to work hard. its just an easy choice of whether you want to be good at something your gifted at. and hes insanely gifted at this, the best obviously!
Absolutely magnificent, Sungha! It's great to see you on your own guitar again. It has a special sound all its own, and you even *look* much more at ease with it..
You and I have watched Sungha grow, and his music develop and improve, during these past few years. He has traveled halfway around the world, and made friends in Germany and France.
He has built for himself a magnificent reputation at home. He is an invited guest of the finest professionals in the world when they hold concerts in Seoul. TV. Concerts. Interviews. Sponsorships. And he's barely 13.
tomiejj15: Listed below are all of the songs I can remember, that are original compositions by Sungha: 1) Missing You 2) Starseeker 3) Voyages With Ulli 4) Night Flight 5) Mosel River 6) Coco 7) Waterfall 8) Perfect Blue 9) Hazy Sunshine If you click on 'jwcfree' it should give you a list of all 214+ of Sungha's videos, and you can select any of those I have listed. Or, you should be able to search for them by typing in a title and Sungha's name at the top of YT's page.
'Missing You','Voyages with Ulli','Starseeker','Night Flight', 'Perfect Blue', 'Coco', and recently 'Mosel River' . that´s what it says in description,, but I also saw Hazy Sunshine & Waterfall.... Maybe try searching in his uploads??
He is indeed a good guitarplayer.. But I'm still waiting for his own songs.. Now he plays only songs of others.. I can do that too, all I have to do is practice... I has to make his own songs! They would sound great!
this guy cant over do it. what is your problem? are to saying he cant share the things he wants to share with us because you dont want to view them so frequently? the solution is.. to not view it as soon as it comes out ! there, problem solved
beautiful song. my husband insisted he showed me your songs. i have been sitting here listening for the past 1 hour. great job. you look tired and sad in this song. keep up the good work.
i agree with you, he is very talented but to me the music doesn't really look like it is coming from his heart, whatever i cant really judge that. Still really good playing.
well but still, he's only been playing guitar for 3 years so i think it's amazing how he plays so well. he looks like he's a very shy kid so that's why the emotion does not seem to show on the outside when he is playing, but somehow when listening to his music i think he does try to show his emotion. plus korean schools drive their kids hard, sungha has to struggle in finding time for his music as well as for his academics
uhhh hes gunna get really tired of guitar if he does this veryday ive heard friends from berkley that havnt touched their guitars after collage cause they were sooo tired of it
well, that's what separates the good from the greats. There is a guy who is temporarily staying in my co-op (coincidentally, i go to berkeley) who plays the piano several hours a day, and never gets tired of it. He's been playing for 7 years, and he's extremely good.
His skill is improving and that guitar's tone is absolutely insane. Sungha's transcending into the realm of mastery that we all strive for. Another solid 10 from our little friend. Can't wait to see how he's evolved when he's in his 20's.... all I can say is WOW!
He doesn't LOOK like a performing circus monkey, to me!
(Or, in other words, I see where his father has been his best "encourager", in all this: from the outset)
So, no. He is not forced to do this. He thoroughly enjoys what he does. it shows on his face, and his style is not "forced", in any sense of the word.
Wonderful playing as always and a beautiful composition at that. Thank you so much for posting this latest piece. Sugha you never fail to brighten my day!
It's great to hear each new song you learn. You're developing a great fan base for when you're ready to go professional. For now, we love hearing each new rendition. So clean and clear. Keep up the great work, Sungha!
That just makes him even more incredible. To have such control and technical brilliance at such a young age. I was still trying to belt out Smoke On The Water when I was 12 lol. Thanks for the info mate.
i wanna be like him .. i dont have anyone to teach me .. i just started from 0 to where i am now all by myself and its hard to have no one to share their knowledge .. i cant even afford classes so im stuck with myslef and this internet which i dont fully understand .. so yeah .. i lil bit of myself .. i just wanna be as good as him or better if possible
You probably won't be as good as him without a teacher. His dad is a musician I think. He also took classes when he was young too to help him. That with his passion, makes him this good.
I hear and watch this video everytime I don't feel ok. Thanks.
