[rockdotsxx]

wow, that's fantastic. You have a great feel for the song!

[armen1961]

Wonderful, incredible performance. You should arrange a tour around the world. You'll be one of recognized greatesa

[stalanoa]

Such an awesome arrangement of a truly beautiful song.



[RedBAkid]

my god....what a tone....what a guitar....what a performance.

[cliffkast]

Great playing, and love the sound! Would love love to have you play on one of my tracks. :)

[donottawaguitar]

very cool

[Abeba7]

Wonderful! Thanks!

[shannn222]

ahhh i love this

[hpy05]

Fantastic sound.. Thanks and a smile :)

[litenslick]

Bravo! How awesome this would sound with a bass and brushes on a snare drum. But you have a very full-bodied sound and cover a lot of the bass notes nicely. There is only one thing that I would change. The tempo seems just a tad rushed to me. (But's that's just a matter of personal taste) For me, it could settle into a groove a little better if the tempo were just a tad slower. Great solo! You are an awesome player! :)

[funkmotorpritch]

I have been trying to work out an acoustic version of this, the video was quite helpful. Fantastic job!

[elpeznaufrago]

Escuchar las reminiscencias de Stevie en las manos de Jake es un placer comparable a sentir el excelente bouquet de un vino en una velada inolvidable. Elegantísimo!

[djziggurat]

Gotta tell you, you and ted greene have to be my favorite finger style players, I'm quite interested in this dvd.

[dabadc]

Sounds damn good. excellent choice!

[EC1000]

amazing arrangment; flawless performance. you should record a whole CD of instrumental solo guitar Stevie

[jreichbart]

Thanks! That's an idea I have already though of, I wish I could find the time/money/distribution to make such a thing happen... Stay in touch though, you never know.

[ppetracco]

@EC1000 Totally agree. I'd love to see "Signed, Sealed..."!

[slowpig]

I just told my wife...I wish i can play like you....and she told me at least she can get me same guitar...^^ may i ask what model is your guitar?

[jreichbart]

Thank you! Yes you can, it's a real cheapo - an Ibanez AG75 cheap new and they have a ton of them on eBay for even cheaper...

[luzhizui]

Fantastic song - amazing version. No overdubs, right?

What's the tuning, out of interest?

[jreichbart]

Thank you. No overdubs, no effects (other than reverb), just me and the guitar. The tuning is standard guitar tuning.

[Frets200]

Nice Interesting to see you out and about.

thanks for the heads up.

Is that a godin ACM behind you?

[jreichbart]

Thanks. That's a Godin nylon multiac. I use it on my other channel which is yourweddingguitarist. I keep the channels separate because this here is the music aspect and over there it's promo for weddings but please take a look.

[hughie521324]

SUPER VIDEO!

i wonder where I can get that arrangement?

[jreichbart]

Thanks. There is nothing written out but I can prepare a DVD lesson for you, take a look at my profile for more details.

[Tototwice]

Wow... really nice guy... very pretty KEEPON STRUMMIN.................Dalla­s

Coming from you, that's a fine compliment indeed. I'd suggest to all my visitors to visit your terrific channel (but don't forget to come back here afterwards...).

You look like you are getting into this one a little more, and it turned out really nice. Good job! When the faces start to come out, you know its going to be good lol

[MartyPlaysMusic]

Kudos on another great job. Everything you post is a gem, I mean it. Thank you for sharing your music.

[rpashoukos]

Really classey arrangement.

[danbergam]

*While listening, he snaps his fingers in time and smiles...

Then he reads the description and clicks the link; and then, curious like a cat, he digs Jake's website... and he stares, in amazement, at all the different music styles Jake is able to play in!

"Nine string guitar"?!

"Metal lead"?!?!

"Synth/midi"?!?!?!

8-O

:-D

And in the end, still smiling, while rating 5* and clicking the "Favorite" link, he thinks that this amazing artist will reserve us more great surprises!*

^_^

[peterqitio]

sound real great :) good mate

[uselname]

As always, great! You have always been great here on the tube, but you've really nailed them latley, or is it just me? Thanks for the music man!

[jreichbart]

Thank you. I also think my videos are better now. There are probably two reasons: 1) I am using a better software that allows me to upload in "high quality" 2) Whereas I use to just upload the first thing I played, now I actually prepare, practice and record 2-3 versions before uploading the best one so I'm doing more quality control. I have some older videos that are pretty bad, I tried to take them down but I think some of my fans were not happy so I left them alone... More videos coming!

[Shaiway]

So great ! What a feeling ! Beautiful and so close to the original song ! Very good job !
