A musical gift to the Zone

I am sharing a wonderful rendition from my good friend Gerald Sheppard of Kingsport. Note the beautiful tone of the guitar, Gerald makes them, and they are works of art.

Nice, RB. Real nice.

Simply amazing. I took up the guitar late in life and have only been playing for 2 years. I am stunned when I see someone with that much talent. I can only hope my plunking will improve to a fraction of that.
The guitars tone was wonderful, however I think that guy could make a broom on a wash tub with a string sound good.

One thing I forgot to mention is that Gerald wrote the arrangement he is playing. He is truly a gifted musician. I asked him on facebook if he would play the J. Cash cover "Hurt" for me to sing at an open mic night. It was only a couple of days away. Having nothing but a YouTube video, he learned the song and played it flawlessly.

That guy is crazy good. Thanks for posting, RB. Taking a look at his other vids too.

Go to his website and check out the hand made instruments. Nice looking git boxes.
