I've never listened to one of my all time favorite songs performed so exquisite~
If my over the top suggestion to do away with fireworks this year in the USA on July 4th led me to your channel then it was well worth it!

its vibration... thats where sound comes from... it doesnt matter how he hits plucks or w/e the strings. as long as he gets them to vibrate they make noise.

well, let me say that his talent is impressive, as far as his rendition of stairway to heaven however, not impressed at all. it was done so sloppy, at some points you're just praying he keeps building on what he's doing and htne he all of a sudden jumps off into some ridiculous jazz solo'ing. brutal if you appreciate jimmy page.

@Tarsha666 its tapping, mostly metal guitarists use it like eddie van halen, then as far as i know, bassists started doing it and doing more melodic stuff, now more guitarists are using it melodicly. and now jazzy. very cool

just finger pressure, he used to be a piano player, so he applied the same principle to guitar, playing different notes with his both hands, his tunning is set to ressemble a part of a piano octave instead of standard E,A,D,G,B,E tunning.
