This guitarist only needs 1 string!

Postby G.I.Jim » Thu Mar 13, 2008 11:13 am

I just came across this, and before I heard it, was thinking "WTF could this guy POSSIBLY play with only one string!???". I think you'll be pretty damn impressed with his 1 string talent! :wink: This guy would be a serious guitarist if he had all 6! :lol:

Good find G.I.J.

Reminded me of Ravi Shankar on the Sitar.

Here's Harrison on Cavett and Ravi plays a bit

It's definitely not my style of music, but the guy IS talented. What cracks me up about this video, is look at the woman in the background. She's constantly shaking her head (almost like she's saying "No, I weell nat go back stage with you after da show") :lol:

....was amazing until my brother said he can do that easily.
He credits his learning it from Eddie VanHalen....but 40 years of guitar playing must count for something! ( 13 when he started)...big Schon fan, as well.
