  • For some reason the video is not playing - click WATCH IN HIGH QUALITY and it works.

  • What is it exactly that you do when you bring your right hand to your left like you do at the end? I've seen it your other videos, but done not quite so delicately as in this one. What's that technique called? It's fascinating.

  • at the end I arpeggiate a chord with hammer ons. the only way to play all the notes is to play some with my right hand over the top of the finger board and use my left hand to fill in the others and my left hand thumb to strum the final chord.

  • mistake at 1:51?

  • actually yes - the bottom string popped out from under the capo so I had to re-seat the capo so all strings were depressed.

    Good catch!

  • Is that an MTD Heir? How does it play? I am going to be purchasing an MTD Artist-5 soon, do you suggest it?

    And incredibly playing, by the way

  • It's an MTD 535 American. It plays awesome.

    I'm not really familiar with the other MTD models enough to comment.

  • @KurtSandford Not true at all! You just have to practice like a true musician, with firm routine and unrelenting commitment (and a lot of time). Amazing talent is the result of disciplined and focused study of a given pursuit. People are capable of so much more than most people understand, not grasping the journey it takes to get there.

  • You are a god amongst men.

  • I started saving for a new bass, as of... NOW, it's going to be a piccolo...

  • What gauge strings do you use?

  • The second half rock like a mother fucker! And I'm not afraid to say it :) Keep it up Jeff, you're fucking ace!

  • You playing in Toronto, Ontario Canada soon?

  • If I'm anywhere near as good as this chap by the time I'm his age, I will be very happy man.

  • It's sound verry nice, but i think the ending dosen't fit in the whole piece. But the song is cool ^^ I like it

  • Good song. Like the video's tags, too.
