  • is that a kahler bridge and what is the luthier that made that if it is a luthier

  • thats true. Hes the reincarnation of JImmy

  • I second that "Guitarrhythymfool"

  • The thing about Stanley that never ceases to amaze me is just how much he cares about the music, and how little he cares about the flashiness that we all know he has the ability to do. He wants to create melody, he wants to create emotion, he wants to make pieces that make your heart beat and your soul sing. Stanley, you are such an amazing inspiration, even for a metal kid like me. Thank you.

  • MattkNT has got it all in one, stanley jordan is not human, he is a super being from a different dimension. That or he just makes all of us look lame, dam it.

  • humbuckers.

    Just a few pointers.

    Good Luck!

  • A hard neck and fingerboard helps. A soft material like maple is less

    ideal because it will absorb the energy from tapping and so less will be

    available to go to the string.

    Also, jumbo frets will give you a richer warmer sound. Hard material frets

    like nickel will give you a more sharp attack, but you may find that they

    are too bright.

    A guitar with a heavy body will tend to give a warm sound. So, for

    example, a Les Paul may work better than a strat. Also, I prefer

    I wish I had more knowledge about inexpensive guitars for tapping, because

    I need to have a ready list in case people ask me. But I will say this,

    most guitars will need fretwork to really get that action down. The

    fretwork is almost more important than which guitar you get, but I'll say

    a few things:

  • :o what did he say?

  • 49?? *looks it up* Holy moly, you're right!

    He doesn't look like it at all! :D
