Sounds great. I used to have a Godin like that with nylon strings. Very nice guitars. I hope to get another some day.

wow this is a great demo and performance

Thank you so much! I am a big fan of Steve Hackett and that track is one I have always loved, I thought you did a great interpretation of it, so sweet and yet incredibly sad. It was the first of Steve's official Tab's I purchased from his old website but I was never able to do it justice, unlike you yourself have done.

I totally understand the previous comment about dancing to it though lol!

beautiful, awesome playing.

[peppermaster]

Absolutely beautiful. I have been a fan for decades. I enjoy all of your work. Well done.

Sincerely,

A very jealous guitarist who met you at NAMM Chicago when you jammed with Steve Howe at the Gibson booth in the mid 1980's!
