It looks like a clip on tuner. Korg makes one that looks very similar.

@sunaJH

[Homertoeclipper]

If God were to ask what talent he could bestow upon me for life, I'd respond in saying I wish to play guitar as well and as effortlessly as Todd Hallawell.

Ed Gerhard did a beautiful version of of this tune on his first album. Interestingly, he also played a Somogyi for the whole album. Now he plays Breedloves.

[Zimplify8989]

this is beautiful! does anyone know what the song name is?

This is an Irish tune called Sidh Beag Sidh Mor. There is also a version of this on our new CD "Ear Candy", a duo CD with Robin Kessinger. Glad you liked it. Still trying to figure out how to get one of these Somogyi guitars! Todd Hallawell

Lucky man you are, Todd, to play that superlative Somogyi. Lucky man you are, Ervin, for having Todd play your guitar. Lucky are we all to have the both of you, doing what you do. -edwinson
