I consider myself lucky to live in a world where both Collings guitars and Julian Lage coexist.

[@lps4eloise779]

Amen, I am not a religious man but when I heard this on a whim on my system (vinyl) the other night, I was on the verge of tears yelling at my stereo "unbelievable!" Praise the Lord!

[@NickyV]

He breaths and smiles...his playing reflects it. I'm striving to incorporate some of those aspects of his playing into mine. Can't get over how great this video is.

[@y34r]

I wish Julian had a long life ahead of him , plz dont let anything happen to him I wanna listen to his music all my life long. He is really nice guy and AMAZING musician.

Every guitar player should watch this video from time to time....to remind themselves that they cannot, in fact, play guitar.

[@tobiokanlawon1562]

Guthrie govan did that for me about 10 years ago. Gave up on being the best ever that day. Good to see every generation has its heros that make us quit foolish notions

I am literally laughing so hard I am crying (as a guitarist) 😂

[@guitardadsinc]

This is possibly the most beautiful and moving thing that ever happened on a guitar. You are right.

[@cerealexperiments8189]

This has the same awesome, wholesome energy as You've Got A Friend In Me. I love it so much.

[@TheMonksDuo]

The most impressive thing about this video isn’t Julian’s phenomenal playing, it’s how well that guitar took that ass whippin. Responded ridiculously well to all the dynamics.

[@tj03297]

it better take a few rounds with Mike Tyson for that price tag

[@aideniscommittingstairway]

Bro he made nothing but sweet passionate love to that guitar

[@dipayandey2838]

His brain is not even thinking as his fingers slide across the fret board with grace and flow. And the music composition is Wow!

[@leesamorrow6746]

He’s definitely thinking. What you are seeing is that there is no delay, not a tiny fraction of delay, between his expressive thoughts and his hands

[@gaelenolinski3166]

Sounds ridiculously great, and Julian rules as always.

[@Magoooobly]

Love hearing Frank and Charlie huff glue to Dennis playing a beautiful guitar song.

[@iccredman]

I love that finger slap at 1:19. I had to watch it a few times to notice that he transitions the pick to his thumb and ring finger so he can slap with his pointer finger, then transitions back so quickly and smoothly. Like a magic trick, super smooth.

[@ambarabasti8872]

Actually he missed the harmonic there, but still: Julian is a blessing!

[@larilaitinen9135]

Felt like the melody was stuck in my head before i heard it, even hummed it along hahha! Amazing as always.

I've never seen Abraham Lincoln play the guitar so beautifully.

Great sound, What an amazing player. Such dynamics, and groove.

[@gillyarchtop]

Julian is truly great, I’ve heard him on so many recordings and love his writing and improving. He came out to a show I was playing at in NYC - man did I ever get nervous when I saw him sitting there. I played like a lifeless robot but managed to get through the show. After the show, the trio all went out for a bite with Julian. What a sweet guy. One more thing... that Collings sounds f#%king amazing in Julian’s hands.

[@James.D]

You can give Julian a $5 guitar and he'd make it sound great. Regardless though, Collings guitars are the best in the world. No doubt about it.

[@belascialoja4812]

Hmm... I'd agree that Collings guitars are among the very best acoustic flattop guitars, but... BUT, there are some other amazing flattops. Ever play a Bourgeois OM, one of those with a torrefied top? A Santa Cruz Tony Rice model, or one of their small-bodied guitars? A Martin OM-45 is awfully sweet, as are some high-end Taylor guitars. And when it's all said and done, "best" is entirely subjective -- at least that's my opinion.

[@freddymclain]

that's ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! Ever played a Lowden? An Olson? In Texis, we call Collings guitars 'Lawyer Wood.' Players can't afford 'em.

[@alangonzalezmartinez8189]

Don´t think so. It's perhaps the equivalent of giving the best marathonist a pair of sandals and ask him/her to run a marathon. He might be able to, but he won't be at his best. So a good pair of shoes do help.
