Kiwi 7 String Master

Just a head's up on NIGEL GAVIN, a fantastic guitarist from New Zealand who specialises in 7 string guitar.

Check out these You Tube clips:

Nigel's custom 7 string acoustic guitar was built by New Zealand luthier Laurie Williams.

The guitar in the second clip is a Godin Glyssenter 11 string fretless instrument that nigel found gathering dust in a shop. Nobody else could get a decent noise out of it. See what he manages in this off the cuff live improvisation. It's rather thrilling.

Through both pieces he is using a floor based looping pedal to create live accompaniment.

Very nice! I've always loved the Glissentar.

The Glissentar video is awesome, I've wanted one of those for ages!
