Weekly Guitar Video: Tosin Abasi Blows Your Mind with his 8-String Guitar

Jul 28

So let me be up front. I'm not a huge fan of Tosin's sound and style, but there's a lot going on here that I do like. I love seeing the immense technical prowess. I like seeing the possibilities of the 8 string (and he really puts those strings to use). I like the unstructured composition (reminds me of Paganini caprices). It's an incredible performance whether you dig his style or not. 

 

Here Tosin gives a lesson on how to tune and play an 8-string guitar. Pretty cool
