Not much fretboard tapping there, but man what a great sounding instrument! Like a guitar with two harps added below and above the guitar's note range. Reminds me of Pat Metheny concerts I've seen where Lyle Mays extended the grand piano with a couple of extra zithers.

Michael Hedges influenced no doubt. Big sound. Pretty interaction of string ranges. Nice find

I just thought you guys would appreciate his musicianship. The fact is he designed and built this guitar (he is a master luthier) and his music is pretty cool. He does in fact play the entire range of the instrument on most of his songs. If you are interested he is doing a show this Thursday 12/23/10 at 6PM CST and I will be producing a webcast on Ustream.

I think you'd enjoy seeing and hearing him play. Thanks!

Keith Medley performs live from The Frist Center Museum in Nashville, TN at 6PM CST on Thursday, December 23. 2010. Keith designed, built and plays his one-of-a-kind 27-string Medley guitar. He will perform original compositions and special arrangements of holiday favorites.

"Medley" - excellent name for a muso!

Great sounding instrument & nice new-agey stuff (waiting for someone to complain about the "lute flavors"). He would make an absolute killing playing this on the street .

Cheers,
Andy
