I'm 63 years old , so you can imagine how much acoustic guitar I've heard over the years this performance literally leaves you in tears., because your mind cannot fully process what you are hearing , it is that stunning. He must be heard by as many people as possible

[@AchillesWrath1]

Some people are just gifted at certain things. Someone could be a better guitar player after 3 or 4 years of playing than someone who's played 25 years. Don't ask me why because i can't explain it. Learning the instrument is just easy for them it almost comes natural.

My point exactly AZ, can u imagine when Mike D reaches into his seventies like Tommy. Tommy does his magic in standard tuning. Tunings are very spectacular but quite limited in their own way.

I'm disturbed by the number of posts about giving up the guitar after hearing Mike. One would think you would be inspired. I've been playing "at" the guitar for over 40 years. At various times, depending on my dedication, I've been really, really good, or really, really bad. After finding Mike Dawes, I am refocused and have a new challenge. Come on folks...you may never be able to duplicate him, but if you learn even one thing from him to improve your playing, it's a good thing.
