Day-um!! I HATE guys that play that good!!
Fantastic bridge humbucker tone on that guitar!
Nik Huber is a German luthier that builds excellent instruments. I love the Krautster (2011 model will have 2 HBs). Check out his video by Lance Keltner playing the Krautster. This guitar rocks.

Hey Zeus that was impressive!
That guys got some monster tone fingers for sure
The name of the guitar threw me though, I'd always assumed the first part of that name was kind of a racial slur... I guess not.
Great video, thanks, Jimi!
Nik Huber builds some beautiful guitars, but I doubt I'll ever be able to afford one.

What, 'Krautster' ? I wouldn't call that a racial slur; unless you mean the primary definition of slur; 'To play smoothly or legato; of musical passages.'Originally Posted by Ch0jin
No not the whole word, just the first part.Originally Posted by bcdon
Exert from Wikipedia..
"Kraut is a German word recorded in English from 1918 onwards as a derogatory term for a German, particularly a German soldier."

I guess it's been "taken back" as it were. I saw a reference to a 1991 German Hip-Hop compilation called "Krauts with Attitude" which is obviously a nod to the boys from NWA.
"Wie geht's, ya'll." Indeed.
As a fullblooded Kraut myself, I've never been too troubled by the "Kraut" moniker. Certainly nothing along the lines of the proverbial n-word. Plus sauerkraut is awesome.
Oh yeah, the guitar's pretty cool As DVM pointed out, he probably could make anything sound pretty awesome.

Oh and I love Sauerkraut too
Killer !
One of my customers just ordered a strap for a Krautster 2 weeks ago
He sent me this link for a photo

Wow! I wonder what kind of wood is used for that neck? It looks like it's been carved from a slab of marble!

Lance Keltner can sure play, and that guitar is gorgeous. His backing band is awesome, too!
