Mattias IA Eklundh performs Father on the Laney booth at the 09 Frankfurt Messe

Mattias IA Eklundh has been a Laney endorsee since 1996 and has been a fixture of Laney trade shows around the world for the last decade.

For those of you who dont know Mattias IA Eklundh you should! He hails from Sweden and is quickly becoming one of the most exciting players around. Mattias combines his very individual technique with stunning compositional skills drawing on everything from growling metal to Indian reduction rhythms making for a very unique style of Swedish folk music!

Mattias amp of choice is a GH100L a 100 watt All tune tone machine! The clip features him using this amp and plugging into a GH100L into a GS212IE cabinet. There is nothing in between the guitar and the amp apart from a couple of cables and a wah pedal. The delay on the song is put on at the desk.

Father is off the A Road Less Travelled and is a track which demonstrates a more melodic side of Mattias playing, sure there are amazing chops in it but on this track the melody is king.

Wow, love him soooooo much! But this song sounds much better in acoustic, as on the album. But anyway the tune and the playing and the man himself are absolutely amazing!
