  • I just want to say congratulations, it's very difficult to follow your hands with this shitty framerate, but your fretting and picking are superb, I play guiar for a living and this is impressive. You should be proud, Irish/Scottish folk picking is some of the hardest guitar playing out there

  • thank you very much..I really appreciate it even if I should play way better than this

  • Wow you go so fast I can't even see your fingers!

    Just kidding.

    I wanted to play with a thumbpick too bad the this are too tough and thick to me.

    Do you know other brands of picks? Thinner ones.

  • I guess they are all the same

  • :) time time time time

  • It's Pierre Bensusan's arrangement of Merrily Kissed the Quaker from his first album 'Pres de Paris'. Its a lovely tune and he plays it significantly slower, with a light, elegant, smooth feel. Accuracy and lightness of touch in the rhythm is what makes these tunes rock so hard, not the speed their played at, especially if the speed is inconsistent and leads to mistakes.

  • souinds great. is it my imagnation or do you slow down on the b part?

  • any tab? i cant see your fingers

  • Fabulous playing but like the rest of the guys I wish the camera was faster...

  • wow fun :) I'm trying to learn this jig.

    can play it That fast :) lol.. nicely done..

  • Yeah I know I was being sarcastic.

  • you'll find its harder to play fast on an acoustic guitar. Electric guitars have more forgiving strings, and they also hide your screw ups soundwise. So anything played fast on an acoustic is a more respectable feat than on an electric guitar. (in terms of pure technical prowess) But Electric guitars sound awesome, so they both have their place.

  • id clap fer anyone that can stand a fuckin nipple on ther thumb. lol

  • very nicely done mate, lovely

  • Not that fast, then again I am a metal guitarist :p

    Seriously though, not bad. I am going to try to learn this song. I just got an acoustic, and I have no songs to play with it.

  • can you do this with a faster camera so we can see your fingers? LOL
