the story is that Ed went to Ted's house and Ted had a guitar with 'catgut' strings and Ted asked him (Ed) to play some either Spanish or flamenco style and Ed picked up the guitar and did this.
actually i think that about 0.01 percent of people commenting can actually play this, some maybe dont even play guitar. I really respect your effort, you are amazing!
hey man i think vh used nylon strings cause it's a clasical guitar no?it sounds like it to me.you used metal strings no?or am i mistaking?And i loved it :D.
there is one guy i've seen do it even closer than this believe it or not. the only thing about this version is that he's playing it standard tuning, whereas the original is tuned down 2 steps. still pretty flawless though.

Nice cover man. You just aboout nailed it. Even with the poor sound quality, I like it. The litle mics in the camera just don't do it justice.

SCOTTHUGHES5150 3 years ago
yeah, it's even tougher that the body meets the neck at the 12th fret and not the 14th like most guitars. that looks like a pre-war style model.

Man, nobody on youtube can get this even close to Eddie's... he IS the king.

Man, absolutely brilliant. That guy down below who said to work on the tapping must not have ever tried tapping on an acoustic.
Take it from this old coot who saw VH for the first time in 1980....YOU ROCK DUDE!!!
