Other than the basic melody, it's all improvisation. He's looking at the music because 1) He's reading the chords
2) It isn't memorized (the group only rehearses 3 times before performance)
3) It's a habit to look down instead of at the audience
His solo, his cadenza, every embellishment and idea that wasn't written by the composer is 100% Ethan Helm improvisation. But don't worry about not knowing that. Ethan's improv is so melodic that most people would think it's written.

does anyone know what that tune is called?

well equipment does matter, but not as much as the player. I don't want to lie and say you'll be exactly the same on some chinese POS as with a yanagisawa but seriously people, this guy sounds good in general. he'll sound good on a yas-23 and he'll sound good on a mark vi
-
don't give this guy a thumbs down. these gigs including ones done by professionals are often un-improvised. they don't want to take the risk so they write their own part and memorize it. honestly, if you have a performance in front of loads of people, and you had the opportunity to memorize over improvise, you'd be dumb not to take it

lol why does equipment matter at all? lol so funny. would you like this guy's playing if he was playing a meyer and a vi? that kind of thinking makes no sense.
