[S1ay3R007]

@HedemannJohann years and years of practicing with a metronome, building it up slowly about 6-8 hours a day...

[beeayedee]

[pufsta1]

dude flight of the bumblebee that is sick shit!

[marcangel79]

Stunning!!!

[2facedninja]

VERY NICE! it'slike Dragonforce on acoustic...lol awesome, but this is more likable.

[BassManiac07]

not even close to dragonforce, 10x better, and it';s actually real.

[2facedninja]

yeah, you got a point, but i do like acoustic and jazz guitars more than electric.

[XMetalMike]

You got that right!!!

[Dominitrix69]

@BassManiac07 Im with you on that bro, I shred, or pretend to shred you can say haha, and its super hard to be fast and clean on a acoustic, cant hide behind distortion. this is pure talent and hard work.

[yomeesho66]

@BassManiac07 Oh, it's real. I've seen him live. Don't diss if you don't know.

[MorkaGraven]

@BassManiac07 Ha, a dragonforce reference. Those guys are worshipped just because of the ultra-fast guitar playing that doesn't actually make them any better as musicians.

Robert fripp once said (along these lines) that speed is like an artist using the colour green. Adding more doesn't do anything for it, it's just another colour that can be used to create something. Personally, I like simplistic music with complex structure.

[mike619RVD]

Thats some talent. Its a shame that the charts are dominated by garbage these days.

In a perfect world, you'd be signed to a major label. This is amazing!

[johnjoesafatso]

@mike619RVD doesnt even have to b perfect... just a real one...

[cursedswordsman]

You're amazing man! I grew and learned with the electric guitar, but upon trying out with a normal one for bit I realized how much better and soothing they are!

[rexharrisonline]

fantastic playing man!

[UncleTito72]

Flight of the bumblebee.

[rivlukcoltd]

ABSOLUTE AMAZING!!!!!!!

[sk8vans15]

[blindcommisioner]

Schaumburg Noveau Flamenco!!!

[trx450rtilldeath]

Holy Shit! :O

[spaztic6]

[EJRocky]

JESUS!

I don't really like normal shred, but on a classical this is amazing.

[PatronSaint210]

This sounds like Queen city on the game Dark Cloud ^_^

[gatocabrito]

Good job man!

[edusty2010]

Woah. That was awesome!

*goes to play classical in a whole new way!*

[zombe0]

[ShawnTMills]

[prinsess2006]

hey dave its me tomc good to see you finally made it!

[jb30108]

mesmerising

[TheShield04]

i had a guitar instructor who was good at both classical and electric (with a pick)...it's funny people always say it's too hard to learn both...i think that's bull...once you learn classical electric guitar is in the bag...just how much time you said a side to learn songs, but the tequnique won't take long

[Samspot11]

that was awesome,once i get better it would be cool to play at small coffee houses and stuff

[chimes2u2]

awesome I hear about 3 levels happening spidey fingers and bumble bee hands

[ebombVizzle]

just heard the first couple bars. All I can say is WOW.

[marcmalanca]

We had the pleasure of seeing you perform St. Charles on 12/1 (we are the ones that bought all your cd's). You are fantastic. We look forward to seeing at open mic night in a couple of weeks. I included a video response of Marc Malanca playing Last Illusion by TSO. Thanks again for a great night.

[bigbeninjax]

Awesome playing in the style of Strunz and Farah. Is this the David Byron from Uriah Heep???

[tps607]

If I close my eyes,it could be Ottmar Liebert! Thanks for the share,Ben.

[bigbeninjax]

Another good one....or Armik.

[Bombtrack411]

thats awesumm!
