No doubt d3drocks. Also check the way he's strumming chords with the top of his fingers on the right hand. You don't see too many guitar players doing that.

It's an awesome solo really yeah?

I read an interview and he reckons it was the best of the 3 he improvised.

Pretty impressive, assuming he wasn't talking out of his arse. But guitarists never do that? Do they?

That guy is awesome. I have to give a shout out to one of my favorites. Billy McLaughlin.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jp5l2D1USLc
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBqkkAjjh7o (one of my all time favorites poor audio though)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U77o4LdfFQQ

He was diagnosed with focal dystonia in 2001 and his career was basically over in 2002. Instead of giving up he relearned everything left handed (as much as the way he plays can be considered handed at all).

Watch "The Return of Billy McLaughlin." You'll never take your ability to play for granted again.
