There were a lot of incredible covers of this gorgeous piece, but yours was hands down the most beautifully composed and perfectly executed. You deserve that W 100%

[@Kristophskii]

Soon as I saw they announced the competition, I freaking knew you'd win. Such a creative way of playing a technically monstrous song. Congrats!

[@sock4919]

It’s so crazy how much difference the guitar makes to the player. Congratulations on winning the comp and the guitar, but you seem so comfortable playing on the guitar you originally recorded your cover/arrangement with, and on Tim’s guitar you very much seem to be adjusting to its feel. Edit: which is not a bad thing at all! It’s just crazy to see how even a guitar bestowed upon you by a god like Tim doesn’t automatically mean it’s the cleanest or most comfortable to play guitar for you.

[@algee4054]

I'm a guitar player and i didn't even think of this. Here I was thinking, "is it just me or does the Fender sound better?" I even left a comment saying this lol. I'm gonna leave it up though

[@carlchameleon9847]

@@algee4054 they're two completely different instruments one is an electric classical, and the other is an acoustic guitar with steel strings

[@battleshipyamato8505]

Yeah my first guitar was a shitty $40 acoustic guitar, it had high string action crappy tuning pegs crappy wood quality, it sounded like shit, I thought my playing was bad and I had that crap for 6 years until I finally got my first electric guitar for $1000(an Ibanez RG550). I felt like a god when I first played it, I sounded so clean, the action was low so the strings were easier to press, I could finally shred like how I wanted to. The finger strength I gained from playing a badly set up high action acoustic with thick string gauge paid off in the end but it doesn't mean I recommend getting a shit guitar as your starter always go for decent ones.

[@drorange2261]

@@battleshipyamato8505 I just watched a Kenyan band playing with plastic cans and make shift string instruments and they grooved like no other. It's the musician .. whole genres of music were build on cheap instruments. Blues, early jazz, punk, garage ... So I won't say no to a Steinway piano; but let's leave anything that costs more than $500 to wealthy professional musicians, lawyers and other people with middle life crisis.

Man just refused to learn to hybrid pick, respect.

[@delcodvd5669]

How are you supposed to do anything hybrid when doing fingerstyle

[@freddiegriggs2277]

@DelcoDVD nono, the song is originally played hybrid picking and I thought it was impossible to play any other way but this guy has proved me wrong

[@valebliz]

@@freddiegriggs2277 finger style is superior for almost anything other than very fast scale playing

[@freddiegriggs2277]

@@valebliz yeah ok? This song has so many fast scales, that's my point.

[@johnrackham8429]

C'mon, hybrid picking was invented to combine stronger bass attack and mellower high strings(In other words, to create a more jazzy tone), it's not exactly for shredding. Also, to the guy above, you can still shred with fingerpicking, in fact the first guitar shredders were fingerpickers and could shred comparatively as fast as electric guitar shredders, they were called classical guitarists and have been around for hundreds of years :) crazy thing huh? Bet you never learned that in school

Tim Henson wanting to cover a cover of his song (which is probably a cover of a backing track I found on youtube) is where I wanna go. Congrats dude, you earned it 👍

[@Covid-vs6et]

Haha backing track you think?

[@justcallmemoses]

Yes, Tim said in his video that the bossa nova section was made by a guitarist's guitar teacher taught to him a long time ago. And one day me and my band's vocal were jamming on a track and he realized that the chord progression was very similar to the bossa nova section. And I also covered it.
