Even if played on an electric uke through a looper with delay?

I'm working on a solo-guitar busking, loop version with the opening flute notes included and to my ear there is more than one flute being played or overdubbing going on ?

Playing Stairway on electric guitar back when it was new on the scene, brought me my first applause. I still love the song.

Ladies and Gentlemen, it looks like a volunteer has finally stepped forward.

Edited from the above post:

"Thumbs up Another crazy Guitar / Banjo hybrid
Bruce Halbohm has the craziest portfolio of art guitars you've never seen. He builds eye-popping guitars from hubcaps, drawers, serving trays, etc. (but has no website so you'll have to meet him in person to see his portfolio). I own one of his Guitar Banjo hybrids, equipped with a single coil pickup for extra honk.

You haven't lived until you've played Stairway to Heaven on a GitBanjo!

There are some very serious acoustic versions out there. (Not of course guitar..)

"Stairway To Heaven" is a great old song. #9 US Billboard for Neil Sedaka, 1960:

These responses are priceless. I agree on the Stairway consensus (and Sweet Child o Mine, too). I play some Zep (Ramble On, Babe I'm gonna Leave You, Your Time is Gonna Come, Thank You, Black Dog and a few more I don't remember right now), but NEVER Stairway anymore. I don't know why, it's actually a good song. I just think I played it so much in my early days, that I killed it. How about Freebird!?! Lol.

Let's hear some of yours - post your acoustic version of just the intro part.

Here's mine:
