    Best cover of Ocean I've seen, because he's not trying to replicate it, he's doing his own version and keeping the same story it tells, with the emotion it deserves. Really really well done! The only fault is not in his playing of it, but the settings of the equipment. I really felt like the echo was dampering the quality of the playing. Just my opinion.

      Tanya S i'm so agree with your opinion. And i just wonder how he playing sound like echo! It's so good.

      @@정다은-r3s Definitely using reverb, chorus, and compression pedals. Some sort of transducer pick up, mixed with a magnetic pickup. Although he is blended not dual sourced like John Butler's 11 string maton is!

      Just a guess: John Butler's version is (in my opinion) much better and so anyone interested in this song is just going to his.

      @@oingoboingo1720 You're the best example of a numb elitist-consumer and this kinda "attitude" is exactly the reason why guys like him who go out on the streets to entertain ppl, sharing good vibes, have to live from a couple of dimes and a few clicks on YT, goddamned, how fucked up this society is....fck your "guessing"

      Easy answer, this is a 6 string version not an 11string version. For ocean you do need the 11 strings
