Terrific stuff. I love the way you play guzhen, it has a new-age feel to it, which to me feels very refreshing. I don't see why some people are complaining about it not being played the 'traditional' way, because I way I hear it, there's no way that guzhen could be mistaken for guitar, or any other instruments for that matter, it's just too unique of a sound. And it still sounds distinctly chinese, and that's good enough for me.

@GODSLAYER121 The Chinese "Zheng" class of intruments (zithers) are of course extant long before they were adopted by the Japanese. However, the Guzheng continued to evolve over the centuries within China whereas the Japanese never bothered to make any changes to the zithers they got from China since the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, Guzheng is NOT older technically, but has an older line of descent. The Koto, though "younger," preserves older characters. Hope that helps.

@lantyboy Guzheng and Koto are like the modern Violin and the baroque Violin respectively. Koto is a more ancient form.

Hi - Thanks for all the comments. You can learn to improv on it pretty quick. (The classical stuff will take a lot of time to learn.) Feel free to contact me about private lessons over webcam. Got this one in Shanghai. This one does have an acoustic-electric pickup but I'm mainly using the mics...I have videos in lots of styles posted at my Youtube channel "bradleyfish" Enjoy!!!
