[Tsukayami]

AMAZING harmonic skills.  o__o

[swamptick2]

wow he must get laid all the time... shiiiiit...whish i could play this cant figure out the tuning :S

[SkySpartan117]

wat r those black things on his guitar? if capo, y 2?

[sk8pkl]

@SkySpartan117 cause he needs to lock the strings at 2 diffrent places...

[Flash447]

@SkySpartan117 i think it is spider capos - u can lock particular strings with it and not only one bar as with normal capo..i think now u know why there are 2 of them:)

[SkySpartan117]

@Flash447 o haha thank alot!

[dajiaoma77777]

@Flash447 Actually, those particular capos are third hand capos. They operate by rotating discs to fret certain strings.

[energynova83]

I really like this, and i wish i had my acoustic guitar at the moment.

[misadeptrai1011]

This video only got 4000 views while other crappy guitar hero guitar videos got millions views. This world has gone crazy.

[naitrose07]

I agree..i've been watching this guy for years...he's amazing and this song is so beautiful both technically and harmoniously!

[Ermengarde11]

Excellent guitar work, I'm putting this on my playlist, "Great Guitar Work". 5**

[mariomoncayo88]

[dunn5]

He's so far ahead for his time. Incredible. Best of luck buddy.

[stupidfat8908]

i have never heard anyone like this ive heard some good ass shit before but no one touches this kids talent fucking amazing.. and those harmonics are amazing

[Ermengarde11]

Yes indeed! I'm sooo jealous, naw, I don't get jealous, I just admire the heck out of such talent!!

[intheflesh316]

@stupidfat8908

if you want more stunning guitar playing, look up antoine dufour, don ross, and andy mckee

[avxnce]

@stupidfat8908 Kids ? i seen that he is 27

[capo420420]

T-Cophony is in a class of his own.

Its not whether one guitarist is "better" than another.

The thing to realize is, he literally INVENTS Tunings.

I don't know of any guitarist on earth that is so innovative.

The music is so very modern in its approach.

I wish i could learn to invent like he does.

Jeff Williams

[itsamonster]

quite a few guitarists invent tunings, as they write songs they realise it would be easier to play if they move this string to a lower note etc... look at thomas leeb's tunings they're weird as

[gskarogiannis]

What a piece, it blows my mind. Simply beautiful!

[danielthomastanner]

so i know that he's doing artificial harmonics with his right/picking hand but what the heck is he doing with his right hand? it BOGGLES THE MIND!?! seriously though what is he doing and how do you do it?

[mrchucknorris]

Hey, Daniel,

A harmonic is essentially any point on the string where it has been perfectly divided. (By half, by quarters, or any divisible portion you see fit) by changing the end node of the string with his fretting hand, he is essentially changing the harmonic nodes of the string, which he then plucks with his picking hand. However, I could be, and probably am, wrong. Whether I am or not, I hope I was at least somewhat helpful. :)

[kouk1350]

take a real close look, he's at the same time picking the harmonic as well. place with pointer finger where you want your harmonic and with some dexterity use your ring finger to pluck the string.

Dynamic way since this frees up your fretting hand

[D2ezbmu]

its called hitting "harp" harmonics, Eric Johnson does this technique. although applying it differently

[mrchucknorris]

no one can contend with this kid

[tylernautica]

well... there is that famous korean kid..... lol

[mrchucknorris]

heh, yeah, give him a couple of years and he'll probably be at this level

[SaiGoldwing]

Mozzart had his Orchestra, you have your guitar. I'm always blown away by this amazing music. I love it, I wish I had even a quarter of that talent. ^.^ God bless and keep up the awesome work.

[mariomoncayo88]

u are a geius... the best misician i've known

[UchuujinSama]

Brilliant! I love it so much. <3

[tylernautica]

number #1

[gennarino2]

why not send him to candyrat...

[jonnyprice77]

because candyrat is a label based out of the U.S

[gennarino2]

you are wrong .. on candyrat there are so many guitarists foreigners :)

[danielthomastanner]

youre right, i know antoine dufour is canadian and i think even don ross and his wife brook miller (also amazing singersongwriter) are too. justin taylor is from south africa and im sure several others.

[gennarino2]

There are also some Italian and Spanish

[gennarino2]

great great great great great great great great great great great

[scotsmanlerxt]

Brilliant! Five stars. Thank you!

[mrchucknorris]

PURE CLASS

[luisston]

i cant believe this video only has 4 view , you are incredible what i would give to be able to play with such soul and complexity

[naitrose07]

And are your 2 capos cut to specifically let certain strings ring out or is the one at the 2nd fret merely there to aide in string dampening? either way I'll say it again this is bloody brilliant and wonderful

[ehsanul]

They probably are to hold certain chord positions while keeping the tuning he requires to do all the harmonics and stuff.

Also, you don't have to get a custom-cut capo, there's something call the third hand capo that allows you to capo any combination of strings and even change it mid-song. Look it up on ebay, think I'll get myself one soon.

[naitrose07]

man i've been tearing my own capos up for nothing then, LOL!!! thanks for the tip I'll also be looking on ebay and getting one soon.

[naitrose07]

you need to seriously make an American tour and come to Seattle...i could sit and listen to this for hours...maybe even join in and add a little second harmony to your beautiful music...eh? this was wonderful..

[picekk25]

Thank you for playing. Great work. Your fan from Poland

[nolono]

You're really talented

Thanks for sharing your music

Greets from France

[Qpidon]

Merry Christmas

Pascal

[Qpidon]

I suppose you are just to busy and to big of a star to waist your time answering.....I apologize I bothered you in the first place.

[Ponpokoi]

Hey Pascal... I do agree with your comment in some way, but, you can't expect everyone to reply. Perhaps he is genuinely busy; c'est la vie
