Akaskero - Sungha Jung (1st time)

[dmannose]

@Gingerlord01 Unless I'm mistaken, sungha started playing in Jan 2006(he born in sept 1996) and had his first composition blue acoustic in nov 2006 which was not uploaded in yt for some reason.

[mjchong98]

plus he only take max of one hour to get the places for all the notes of a song... i don't think even some guitarist with 20 years of experience can do that...

[katk237]

wow man!!i've been learning how to play guitar for a year but i still can't play that song!!!you're awsome!!!

[Gingerlord01]

If i saw this when it came out out, i would be like, "Shit...this kid his talent" even his later videos were good, however, what is it now, tens years down the road, and hes only just finding how to make original songs? Thats over tens years of experience, i reallt debate over that fact if the kid has REAL talent, and if anyone wants to have a go at me for making a fair point, go ahead.

[TheLocalcat]

@Gingerlord01 dude, sungha has only been playing guitar for around 5 years, not 10....this video was from when he was 10 and now he is 15. He started composing only 2 or 3 years after he picked up guitar. if that's not talent, idk what is...

[Gingerlord01]

@TheLocalcat first of all, thankyou for not biting off my head because i wrote my opinion :) The only reason i believe what i believe is because he looks about 7-8 in the video. so that would at least be around 7 years, but if he has only playing since he was ten, then i find him better :P

[ChrisWindyBoy]

I bet he will do this perfectly this time...

[Crazyafk]

*sniff* whenever he does his awesome slap it echos like water droplets echoing in caves truly soul moving

[foreverwelcome]

amazing.

[xXInYouFaceXx]

kay, its bullshit that its his first try though! You must practice to play something like that

[anneiskindofhungry]

@xXInYouFaceXx

he's sungha jung.. everything he does seems like bs.

but its not.

[xxJxMxCxx]

wow!!:)

[MrJimbertroda]

this s d 1st song sungha played on guitar...he was 7 years old at ds time

[Transdragtite]

You are fantastic.x

[JoelMeOff]

damn man. that fret board is about as wide as his fingers are long. this little kids rediculous. he must be autistic or something. ha.

[rune2hko]

[XiaoPeGuiN]

how old is he when he play this ?

[BBGun90210]

The Greatest guitar player of people my age !

[melodicdreamer72]

Very well done little dude! Totally cool. Hope you are beginning to compose your own. In a few years your fingers will follow your ear-feel and that is where it is at.

[landdeath]

This song mellows me out =) Thanks

[Deankillz]

no he isnt

[fettis1]

This sounds nice :O

[pleasedohack]

is it possible to play this song without an amp?

[RoyAnnashi]

Technically yes, but it's hard to get the harmonics in the tapping part to ring clearly and loudly.

[baksteen123]

yes, I play this song too, there is even a cover of it on my account. I used no amp, and all the harmonics came out nice. It really makes no diffrence to use an amp or not for harmonics

[spacecap2]

난 네 음악을 사랑

[rachshin92]

Much different from that he has in his recent videos.

[LeahJordanMusic]

You are absolutely brilliant, don't listen to anything most people say on here, the majority of them probably don't even know what a guitar is - keep playing you are truely inspiring, absolutely brilliant!

[mephistall]

Keep up the playing kid :) You'll only get better and you're already doing the right things. Anyone ever hear Eric Roche do this song? Beautiful. Is there any footage of Thomas Leeb on here doing it?

[Rainmanontour]

[grazingbuffalo]

[Rainmanontour]

i think piano is so melancolical, i love its sound...

but guitar is a thankfull intrument, too. im in guitar since about six years

[grazingbuffalo]

i see...i first started 4 years ago but i havent really done anything productive...trying to start it back up while im at my 1st year in university =P

[lukepham]

Leo Kotke used to be my favorite acoustic guitarist. Now you have taken his place. You are so blessed with talents and I am so blessed to be able to hear you play every day on YouTube. Thank you. May you always be surounded by love and music.

[SalamanderExcess]

Thats real alright... bet he didnt wanna learn it.. parental involvement maybe, am i right?

[mishybear]

who knows if he started out of parents' will?

but now, he loves to play. lol

[Macintoshmatty]

Oh Shit!!!

I've played off and on for 30 years and I couldn't get near that

Brilliant

[sazysaz]

OMFG!! his hands are so small yet he can still play amazin!

[whyldephaier]

[Beakemhawks001]

HOLY SHIT!!!! the guitars bigger than the kid! and hes really good!!!

[Woodshed1]

It's not right that I'm this jealous of a ten-year old.
