Okay, so this barely fits under the basses section and will probably be moved by a mod, but check this guy out! He calls himself Bernhoft and is a one man band using a number of guitars and a loop station of some sort. He's put bass strings as the top two strings of his acoustic guitar so he gets actual bass lines.

I know there are others that do this kind of stuff but I haven't found anybody (other than Phil Keaggy) who does it this well and is this much fun to watch. |
