This was shot only a year ago...Hackett looks great...I wish I could say the same thing for Steve Howe...they are both my guitar heros. Thanks for posting this video.

@tehknysz17 Judging from the headstock/tuning pegs I would say classical. When the capstans that wind the strings are down in those 2 carved horizontal slots on the headstock it's a classical. Steel string capstans usually stick out perpendicularly from the plane of the headstock as electric gits. I think you can put steel strings on a classical but from my experience it makes them murderous to play. Also, it sounds like he's using gut or nylon strings which would b a classical.

@tehknysz17 it's a classical guitar, nylon string. You can tell by looking at the bridge and the guitar headstock .

@guitarplayer30001 The audience was actually allowed to record parts of this show, surprisingly yes, I checked that :)

looking forward to hear him play Phoenix Flown live, truly cannot wait, been listening to it again and again, the whole album "Beyond the Shrouded Horizon" is filled with amazing tunes, love it!
