      Takamine ain't crappy. There are very good high-end guitars. It just so happened that he's using a G-series which are cheaper and lower-end guitars.

    Bro I'm dead serious, you either studied psychology or you're gifted because anything you cover you make it look easy, I've seen a *looot* of slide videos but never been able to understand but with your simple 8mn video I got the principle
    You know! A genius can have different categories (Naturalist,Musical,Mathematical.....) And you my friend are 100% a musical genius because only a genius can explain difficult things easily and with few words
    Bro you deserve to be above the 1M barrier

    Every time I hear a slide on a guitar I feel something... inside. In my blood, on my skin. Absolutely love it! Don't know why. Born, grown up and lived always in Italy but... maybe there's a Delta in every country!
