Bro, you do realize you are talking about Richard Smith right???,Chet,Tommy,& Richard played/jammed together many times and have shared the stage many times together! View a young Richard Smith and Chet Atkins playing whispering together when Richard was just a kid.Chet once said if he had to pay money to watch a guitarist it would be Richard Smith or Doyle Dykes..Tommy Emmanuel, Chet, Richard Smith, Doyle Dykes, Wesley Crider, are all Fingerpikn Monsters and all play different!
He plays on tv and has released plenty of cd's. Discovered by Atkins himself when he was only 11 years of age. Tommy emmanuel asked me if I knew or had about him guitar clinics in 2006 one of his he told me that I had the same thumbstyle. Now I am proud.. I hadn't but I did some research afterwards. And I have been fan on Richards ever since. He has an amazing talent. One of the best out there imho.
Jk, been thinking of getting a Taylor, but i need a good strumming guitar for contemporary christian music. I've heard Stonebridge is more for finger picking and i can't find any strum videos.
How does it do with strumming? got any vids of that?
I think Chet Atkins would approve.

The pickup is a Highlander place under the saddle. That's it.

It's actually an IP-2 and onboard preamp, but the mic is not installed for this performance.
