Killer 16 year old guitarist, reminds me of Neal

Just saw this posted on another board... this kid from France is great! Plays with a ton of feeling... Check out his song "Dark Paradise". Too bad he's playing a cheap Squier guitar at the start, though...

Just noticed he starts completely shredding at near 4:35 in the video, as well as plays the drums! Man, very talented kid...

Well, Neal was very good at that age and was actually playing in Santana when he was 16.

Absolutely agree. He plays his guitar with the same melodic heart (on this song), channeling the notes as if he's singing the chords, not just strumming. The song reminds me of something Neal would have done around the Dream after Dream era, but a little harder. Very talented. Other songs remind me more of Satriani & Steve Vai, but he's definitely plays with Neal's heart when he wants to.

Strange coincidence here: He has curly hair. Could a fro be next?? :D
