I wonder if the guitar is in standard tuning. ?

Jack-Flash-Jr

I believe it's standard minus A string, in the key of Awesome.

inflames

Excellent, just goes to show, you don't need all the strings ?

Manfred-Klose

I really like this.

I always believe that to be an original guitarist one should draw from unlikely influences, these kind of videos of obscure axe masters are a real inspiration!

needleshy

very cool, there are some people doing some really cool stuff on the web.

Wow. She is freakin' amazing. I just love that thing she does of using her whole hand to fret. So compelling visually, and it has this whole loose sound within a very tight performance. Incredible. I wonder if she has any others.

He is a man, not a woman, guys. His name is ronnie after all!

deefstes

Haha yes, while he does look like a she, I believe she is a he ?

There are actually a number of videos of him doing his thang, all posted by a certain Bokete7 (http://www.youtube.com/user/Bokete7)

Here is another cool one - the song is called "Pidipidi" ?

And another one just to show that he can actually play the guitar the "right" way round as well.

Interesting to note that the A string is missing but the G string's tuner is missing. This guy is not overly concerned with the conventional ?

Names can be deceiving. I know an auntie named Koos. Apparently after a half dozen older sisters, the parents weren't taking any chances - the next born was going to get the fathers family names finish and klaar, irrespective of what sex it is.

LOL, I know a Tannie Jannie who got her name in much the same way. But I reckon if you watch "Pidipidi" above you'll be convinced that she is indeed a he ?
