Mattias IA Eklundh who?

The way he has the delay setup with the number of repeats makes it sound like he's playing a lot more notes than he actually is. Cool stuff nonetheless.
 
It sounds very cool, no doubt. As a song, I love it; however, it really isn't that difficult or impressive from a technical standpoint (as the thread title seems to implies).

Really? Because what it sounds like to me is that this guy is getting sounds out of a guitar that he shouldn't be able to do.

There is a visible pickup in the soundhole. There is well timed delay (effect) as well.

He is playing with a combination of fingers and pick (others do this - like Zakk Wylde on "Mama I'm Coming Home"), but he is doing something that is not typical for guitar and using a banjo thumb pick.

Like I said, cool song, but I don't find it innovative or impressive (from a technical standpoint). I personally have never really been into crazy technical anyway - unless it sounds cool as a song (which is why I like IA so much :)).
 
Nice find, some neat playing

I'll stick with this instead and pray that they get a shot at progpower some year

Just when you think you are a pretty good guitarist some Asian guy comes along and oh well back to the drawing board.
