Recorded it, you can really see how low the neck pickup is on the PG Les Paul, great footage here.
Thanks for the heads up

Yep - Knoplfers soloing is pretty impressive. What I like most about it though is that he's not 100% accurate on every note - gives it a more human feel if you ask me. I really should learn to play without a pick!
I think I hate being indecisive.

hendrix clip at the start is really amazing. he has really good strat tone in that clip too, rather than his usual obnoxious heavy fuzz. good viewing! i just want to play now!

OMG @ paco pena's fingering by the way

Ending on the Edge and no Iommi made me sad. In saying that had they featured Sabbath it would have been Paranoid and that just would have put me in the huff.

Good show though.
