with a quick look and slight blurring of the eyes, you could imagine this guy playing a keyboard; he has the right and left hand bass /treble going on. Guitars will always amaze ( when with the right people)

So why wouldn't you just play it on keyboard?

I thought Stanley Jordan was the first guy to do this, but I think some famous country guy started the technique in the 50's. Not Les Paul, but someone else. But really, this guy is no Jimi Hendrix.
