The main dude from Behold... The Arctopus (an insanely technical instrumental metal band) uses something like that, called a Warr tap guitar or something. He does so much fantastic stuff on it. Here's a kinda crummy video of them live. |

OFF TOPIC!
Those things are crazy. One of my friends is in a technical death metal band. He plays that for some crizzazee solos. Except I *think* he made something like that on his own. |

The best instrument is the piano; how beautiful it can be, and it's range to play any kind of song definently makes it the greatest ever. |

I actually saw a solo guitar player live that opened for Ozric Tentacles back in 2004 that uses a very similar two-handed technique like the one the guy in the video was using. His name is Bill Burke and he used to play in a progressive rock band called Ousia which has since disbanded. These days, Bill is doing the solo thing...just him and his guitar, no backing band, sounding like four guitarists at once. Thing is, this guy doesn't use one of those Stick thingies but rather had a specially-made 8-string guitar created for the purpose of playing like that.
Being a keyboardist myself, watching Greg Howard play this thing makes me want to go out and buy one of these instruments and mess around with it. He makes it look too easy! Of course... |
