Default Amazing guitar- guitar lovers listen

To those that love string instruments or just like to see some crazy skills check this clip out. What the guy has done is taken the song( by george harrison), and basicly played the vocals and the music. He is known as a top ukulele player. Listen to it all the way through it has some crazy picking .

Default not too shabby

If voicing is cool to you look up these guys some time: Adam Fulara. Chet Atkins, Danny Heines, Pat Metheny, Phil Keaggy, or maybe Paul Galbraith. Paul is an amazing improvisationalist when it comes down to it. You can sing a song and it's like he knew you were going to pick that song before you did as he trills out the tune. Awesome little uke' song none the less.

VERY nice! Major props to that guy. Not guitar but still dam good string play!

P.S. If you like amazing Guitar - look up Joe Satriani - Satch is one of the most skilled Guitarists you will find (well - in terms of show-off skills that is) out there. However, people like Clapton are beyond him in terms of Theory, some don't do the whole (watch me shread and bow to me) kinda deal =P.

Simply amazing!

With all due respect man,I gotta disagree...Satch is an incredibly gifted musician who is more than just into "showing off"...HE has GOBS of theory dripping out his ears...unlike Clapton (another fave of mine..) who really when it comes down to it is entirely based on minor blues pentatonics...Clapton's talents lie in his phrasing and just overall "God like" way of having the right feel for any particular music setting...(Not to mention his song writing!)

Satch can create entire musical landscapes by mixing chords,scales AND special effects to create sounds that have never been heard before or put new spins on classic modes and tonalities....Both are just awesome players...

BTW Satch has been an instructer to not only Kirk Hammet But Steve Vai as well...Not to mention countless other players....

They both totally rock!
