Unknown Costa Lukacs tune

This is a beautiful tune by Hungarian guitarist Costa Lukacs. Nobody seems to know the name of it!

Thanks to Tim Robinson for originally turning me onto it via his great cover:

Also check out Paulus Schafer's versions:

It also appears on Brady Winterstein's album "Happy Together" with the title "Solo Of Bro."

And here is a version by Costa himself:

There are many variations of this tune. Unfortunately the version I transcribed (another recording by Costa, and in my opinion the best one) is no longer on YouTube because the person who posted it removed it.

Guitar stuff: tuning is "drop D" -- which is standard tuning except that the low E is tuned down to a D. This is my AJL 503-XO guitar.

Recorded Aug. 4, 2012, in Chicago.

Dude you are creating such awesome vibrations! Tune down to A=432 , C1=256 and get in perfect tune with the whole universe. The mids and lows will sing like never before. Your guitar (if a Mac or a selmer) is probably already scaled correctly to play at the slightly lower concert pitch.

[Xiphosss]

What mic did you use to record this?

[adrianholovaty]

I'd name it "videogmer227 Is Forcing Me To Name This Something."

Ardian...I met you at DiJ "Camp" this summer. I wanted to ask you a few questions if you don't mine but you do not have a message link on your channel. Could you send me a message through my channel and I'll write you back?

Thanks!
