Why are so many people complaining on these videos that he's immodest and egotistical. All I see is a guy who has put a lot of time and effort into something very difficult and is proud of it. There's absolutely nothing wrong with being proud of an achievement and wanting to show people what you can do.
Thanks for the video! As with everything Ben has done, I'm impressed and I really like it. I'm also glad to see he is still having fun! As long as he keeps having fun with his music, we will too! @_@
Wow lol he's so in his mind, in his own world...really im inspired, truly... aha id love to jam with this guy, You definitely have a gift and an old soul, and a very wise soul at that. Wish I could meet him.
Ben, lots of congrats from Munich Germany. Boy, I play guitar for 40 years......so its OK to get a tear in my eye when I listen to your playing. I just LOVE this! If I where there, you would get a HUG. Go on playing guitar!
Careful with the thumb! There is a very sensitive nerve just on the outside edge in the middle of the finger and a lot of drummers who (accidentally) hit it often experience pain..
No problem, if you wish to get one, they retail for about $2800 new on major guitar websites. If you want this model, it's the Cedar top, not Engleman Spruce, so keep that in mind because of the tonal characteristics (I personally want the Cedar because it sounds perfect to my ears)
Those are called guitar harmonics, there are certain places on the guitar neck where if you press very lightly you get a cool ringing tone to simplify it.
It's actually a 714ce. You can tell because it uses a Western Cedar top and Eastern Indian Rosewood back and sides. Spruce is much brighter grained and ovangkol is way too light colored, also if it was a 414ce, then it would use white binding and purfling for the top and sides and this is not present. My verdict is that it's definitely NOT a 414ce by any chance, and I would likely say its a 7 series, 714ce most likely.
I live about 20 minutes away from Taylor guitars and frequently go to check out new stuff. So that's how I know the differences from a GA to DA, etc. Also, I like to read about acoustics and the tonal differences, so that's where my preference for a cedar top and east indian rosewood acoustic comes in. I also am a huge fan of Taylor, which I guess is an assumption that I know most of their acoustic line. I do not own one, but I very soon will. My favorite acoustic guitar by far.
I have seen Tommy live in the UK and god is an Aussie. I agree music can be made by any sound i play guitar, i also sample and dj it's all expression why put limits on it.
Just because you don't have the mental capacity to appreciate good music does not mean you need to offend a group of people who have no physical or mental difference from yourself.
You must have missed my point. That I emphasized how the eggs turned out is ironic. I intentionally neglected how incredible his guitar playing is to exacerbate how exceptional it is. The mere fact that he was even able to do this at any level of competence while masterfully pulling off virtuoso guitar playing is incredible. I love this video. Sarcastic backhanded shit talking used to be considered playful and complimentary. I guess kids who experience no inflection don't get it.
Don't take this the wrong way.. He does so much more than slaps his guitar.. If you are a guitarist you should know how hard this is to do.. I've been playing for many many years and I can assure you that this is hard as fuck! haha
Incidentally, my girlfriend filmed this
Ben Lapps is there a tab to this song? Is sooo catchy
no good, the egg was out of tune
oml, I lauged so hardd
You have to ask HowToBasic to learn how to tune them properly ;)
No you don't.
If you knew anything about playing guitar then you'd know just how awesome this kid is.
すごーい！おもしろいです。音楽ってこういうことですね。
How Ben Lapps drives
You want to kill him ?

Really love the harmonics he's doing.
What an amazing style !

Those are called guitar harmonics, there are certain places on the guitar neck where if you press very lightly you get a cool ringing tone to simplify it.
So good. Smart idea. Excellent.
Ben Lapps you are amazing.
If you were a guitarist, you would appreciate how fucking difficult this is to do and how much this kids nails it.
Truly incredible. You are great
Fuckin hell hey! Taylor make some phenomenal guitars, wow.
The voice to that beauty is just awesome!!
It's tradition in my family to make breakfast this way.
It's The Perc U Lator by Eric Roche. There's a live-version with Ben Lapps on youtube (no breakfast, sadly).

on your guitar, press down on the strings at the 12th fret with almost no force and strum
I envy your talented playing….
Really
Haters are gonna hate. Ben can flat out play!
This dude is a really good guitar player!!!
god i love those taylors. mine's like his - plays itself.
i think it might possibly be a Taylor 2012 414ce Ovangkol/Spruce Grand Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar Natural
lotsa awesome moments happen in a kitchen
Such an underrated video
you are amassing!!!!!!!!
Mad Talent!!!
Awsome guitarist sounds so familiar. Tommy Emmanual protege in the makings!
The song is The Perc U Lator (Eric roche)
Bless you for eternity,my friend.
BRILLIANT
That was fun. Thanks!
I have seen Tommy live in the UK and god is an Aussie. I agree music can be made by any sound i play guitar, i also sample and dj it's all expression why put limits on it.
Absolutely. He's making the sound a little more tangible with the drumming effect.
In laymans terms, fucking awesome.
Way to start the day!

I learned how to make an omelet
coolest breakfast video ever
And here we can observe a leaf village ninja. In his free time he usually plays guitar and cooks at the same time.
the moment when you realize that he can play the bowl better than you can play the guitar
Me guie mestre, pois não sei oque fazer, kkkkkkkkkk...
O cara é um monstro, toca de mais... Ótimo trabalho... :)
Why isn't this more viral?
Why would you dislike? its Great!
Does this song have name ? Or was it just something you came up with for the purpose of this video ?
Thanks anyways, love the video, love the song!!
How does this guy not have more views!
Why some of the hate out there, this guy's got some talent! to say the least.
I'm so good i do it with out the guitar
The oddest version of the percolator I have ever seen.
Good job
Ben so special!!!!
awesome.
That is probably the best comeback ever. Give snarlingrabiddog5150 a cookie,
Awesome play
I wish I could make eggs like that did you shred the cheese before and the onions to make the timing right for the taste
Man you are brilliant
Credits for the back-up percussion go to my gas stove's pilot light.
You must have missed my point. That I emphasized how the eggs turned out is ironic. I intentionally neglected how incredible his guitar playing is to exacerbate how exceptional it is.

Sarcastic backhanded shit talking used to be considered playful and complimentary. I guess kids who experience no inflection don't get it.
Please make an album one day. Incredible
you are great , why only 2 videos ... i want more... can you make songs like bruno mars or something else ....
You're doing it bro. You're making people happy.
His Guitar playing is awesome, but his cooking is the shits...
He timed the spark to quarter note triplets!
Why does this guy not have a million views?
Thanks my friend, Appreciated.
Talented, has a sense of humor, and can cook!!! He will make a fine husband ;-)
i love Ben
I was so nervous for his cupboard for a moment.
What a tasty song.
Ben's Psychedelic Breakfast
Fantastic! You play amazingly! Have you recorded anything at all?
Don't take this the wrong way..
He does so much more than slaps his guitar..
If you are a guitarist you should know how hard this is to do..
I've been playing for many many years and I can assure you that this is hard as fuck! haha
Gods gifts and grace
This guy isabsoulutly very talented.
