escoude has no chops at all. great video!

nice

They use a technique called 'Rest-Stroke' well you have a floating hand, wrist bent out naturally, when they pick they pick a little aggresively and rests on the next string (thus the crispness and the term rest-stroke). When changing strings they always use down strokes. Oh yeah.. Did I mention the practise they put in? Sure the technique helped, (a lot, people might say) but these guys put in thousands of hours practising. Technique is explained in detail on michael horowitz's 'Gypsy Picking'

lol i noticed that bireli likes his plain white t-shirt when he is gigging

They are GREAT !!!!!

Rosenberg is very good and the best

Rabbit,
I think you're wrong about Bireli refusing to comp. It's an artistic choice. With 4 guitars playing theres only so much room. when the second guitar starts his solo he playing mostly chord melody. I think he lays out when taste requires it. Sometimes it's knowing when not to play.
