Normally into rock/metal..but...

I've been watching Andy Mckee's videos on YouTube for quite some time now. Check out the songs Rylynn, Drifting, and Art of Motion. The things he does on an acoustic are just mind blowing. Just do a search on Andy McKee. You wont be disappointed.

Have you heard of Preston Reed? An amazing virtuoso who makes an acoustic guitar sound like a full band.

Andy McKee is amazing indeed. If you are up for it, I did a tutorial on Advanced Acoustic Guitar styles a few years ago. Some of the techniques that Andy uses I applied to these examples and they were fun to write.
