Very helpful as I am working to improve my own guitar percussion.

[@mallan824]

It's the intro to Pulling Teeth, track 1 from Write It On Your Skin.

[@reksubbn3961]

So does anyone actually make an acoustic guitar specifically to enhance the percussion effects? Include a snare inside perhaps

[@arleenmcfarlane8871]

Excellent guitarist

[@TheBigMclargehuge]

I'm sure his drum teacher is proud.

[@Larry2707]

[@mallan824]

[@cragg07]

Anyone know his strings

[@TheSid5454]

[@Hamster3698]

write it on your skin

[@DanTheMack95]

+Sidharth Dhingra It's rather late, but it's Pulling Teeth :D

[@giggs102]

what a graet guitarist..

[@XenoBeano]

What chord is he playing in that bit around 1:00

[@TheRabidGinger]

+Zeno Dyer Bit late, but I'm pretty sure his go-to tuning at the time was DGDGAD (Gsus2 i believe) and just uses 2 fingers on each of the g strings. Really makes use of the open tuning.

[@peterkennelly333]

What's the song they're both playing at 3:20

[@lukeammann6233]

Shit

[@79kdis]

What is the song in 2:48?

[@matthewwoodman7291]

Franco Cádiz Ortega It might be No Diggity. He's done a cover of that song live a few times

[@jantulinja8917]

[@cristobalsantana9744]

+Tommy Lourdes song of the 0:0

[@lukeammann6233]

The fuzz pedal at the end gave me cancer... Its an acoustic not a les paul

[@Valarien777]

As awesome as this is, you've really gotta have some extra guitars you're willing damage over time for this to be an option in your play style... ;-)

[@tom27j]

as cool and talented as this guy is, unwashed ginger dreads is not a good look, on anyone....

[@sitiimanina]

hahahah really!
