But my preference when it comes to acoustic virtuosos is Michael Hedges. Justin King is cool and all, but Michael Hedges is the main influence of all these new acoustic tap and slappers. Aerial Boundries is a pretty sweet album.

It was a rhythmic and harmonic piece if anything.

It's pretty funky and he slaps in the beginning. Right Here

Do a Google-Video search for Adam Fulara, he has a bunch of videos.

-Eric. | That would tend to limit his "normal" playing. While the guy's adept at slap-n-tap style acoustic, he's also great with conventional techniques.

I like Adam Fulara. I never heard anyone get tone like that from a guitar, and tapping like that just blows my mind. He might as well be playing a piano!
