Fantastic playing. The reverb is distracting though...

I like your version very much Sean, beautiful tone and expression...I'm just using a little reverb a pedal called verbzilla and I think it's a d-5 pedal by boss...about to release a new recording and video of this..it's kind of a study..what great piece.

Looks like we are the only two on YouTube playing this... what did you use to do the artificial reverb? Is it running through a laptop or something? I can't see...!
