damn thats simply amazing, by far the best, most complicated and full arrangement cover of this song,

I heard many youtube star using arrangement fingerstyle to cover songs, but this seems to be on whole new level,

Is the first guy using Scrugg's style banjo tuners?
Never seen it done on a guitar like that before.

yea looks like it, or simply just simply changing the tune to his guitar while playing

like i said this guy is on a different level compared to the other great fingerstyle cover youtube stars

I'd like to know who formulated the algorithm on McKee's guitar's fingerboards in the above videos? Because whoever that was, they are, mathematically, at the same level McKee is in his guitar playing.

The fret layout is said to help with intonation. I've been playing guitar for a little more than 30 years, and I have never had an issue with intonation.

That's my excuse for not attempting anything McKee does.

One of these guys came to my school when I was in like 6th grade. It was mesmerizing to say the lease, even for a restless 12 year old. I don't remember the guy's name, but if I had to guess it could have been this Mckee fellow. It would have been 20 years ago now, but the guy said he traveled all over the world just to play with certain individuals and learn.

I simply could not afford the amount of guitars I would have smashed to learn how to play half as good as those guys
I love it when people visit me and walk into my studio space. Their immediate reaction is one of awe. I then get asked how much it cost to build a studio and a full show stage.

It's at that time I let them in on a secret. Everything wasn't purchased at once. I've been playing music for a long time. I guess I am a hoarder of sorts because I have equipment that some would consider outdated. Others call it vintage. In any case, the equipment is due to years and years of saving, collecting, and buying knowing what I have is a tool box, not a toy chest.

I refuse to dig out all of my guitars and basses. What I have out, my daughter keeps hijacking.
