I wonder what model of guitar that is; the tone is absolutely beautiful.

Thanks for the positive comments everyone, and thanks for the attempted-promote, calvados.

That was awesome. The only thing more awesome would be to have him play this live, in an elevator.

nice playing, song...ugh...but still talent shines through. And HELLO can you you move the mic about 5 inches to the right, please?!?
