came across some of his clips on u-tube,check out "in Paris 7/27/7" where's he's playing a piano solo while comping the axe! What is his style about,never seen anybody play so high up on the neck;always liked his stuff,never had visualized how he did it.

He calls his technique the "touch" technique. Its basically tapping on steroids. He is obviously super talented and if you hear him, you'd think there were like 3 guitars playing together.

I can't listen to him for long though. The sound gets tiring to me.

I saw him live when his first album "Magic Touch" came out.
He is something to behold, for sure. And like Fenix, I can listen to his music in limited doses, but I could watch him play for hours.
