Kudos man!

Awesome!
And by the way, this guitarist is emotional. He is natural and that is much much more beautiful than this mainstream professional piano sellers.
So yeah, let's RAG!

@Hyduk87 .... perhaps those same people that complained might like to show us how it should be done . You always find that the complainers cannot actualy do anything themselves .

would it kill them to put the microphone in front of the guitar?

Great work, but it's not from the original music, despite what others are saying. There are several phrases that are not played as the piece is written. however, this is very well played and deserves a wider audience.

Instrument transfer : Complete

I´ve always liked the idea of Ragtime played on guitar....and most attempts have bee somewhat laboured and contrived....Your tuning, a stoke of genius, allows you to get the piano feel while bringing out all the superior potential inherent in the guitar.

Astonishing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!
Spot on accuracy, incredible clarity on notes and amazing control of the tempo! However, there has been a couple people who posted about the lack of emotion. I don't think it's emotion that's lacking, if anything, a little bit of dynamics would have made this beyond phenomenal, little swells during the phrases, crescendos up, then the sudden drastic fall off to a really soft part, characteristics of Joplin's pieces. But I still really like it, and you did fantastic for being live!

Outstanding! Perhaps the best guitar version of Maple Leaf on youtube, as it's true to the original. Great feeling! I can see he's having a good time playing it, not laboring w/ left-hand positions, as often happens w/ classic rags transcribed to the guitar. It could have been a bit slower, or perhaps more "bouncy", but I'm picking at hairs here; this guy is great!
