    Default Crazy fast guitar player

    You may have seen this but I thought I'd post it anyway. Not my cup of tea style-wise but there's no denying the player is a phenom, albeit one who apparently stays in his basement and remains anonymous. Still, some of his chops are scary.

    He's not anonymous. He's a South American session player. I can't remember his name right now.

    Yeah, Fernando Miyata. Unbelievable. Looks like there's some flamenco chops lurking in there -- I think he was doing some rasgueado stuff there towards the end? But anyway. Maybe I shouldn't have given up the trombone.
