@@brynjolf3974 For sure. It works great in songs like this but would be kindof crappy for acoustic classical guitar, a random cheap 300€ fullsized one sounds way fuller/better on its own.

Though as someone who has played mostly classical guitar i would love to plug one of these into a DAW and have some fun :)

Which is pretty interesting. And doesn't really give you anything to hide behind He has major chops, I don't really see any reason to hate on him as a player. But the whole Staning and insane fans of his intrigues me. Because, he really isn't doing all that much new. Yet people act like he's doing something that has never been done.
