I'd never heard of this guy before, but those of you who live in the UK might be familiar with him. I don't lightly compare anyone to Brent Mason, but this guy smokes the strings!

Excellent guitarist. The way he uses his pickin' hand reminds me of Mark knopfler. He uses pick and fingers on both upstrokes and downstrokes. That makes his picking very efficient with little wasted motion.

However, one song does not make him a Brent Mason. Who knows, maybe he practiced that one song for years! crazy

Just pickin' grin

All his posts seem to be about 5 years old, and then he disappeared.

Is this the same guy? Jake Faun on Instagram

If so, he's put the same intensity into his workout routine. sick

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Hi Jim,

I agree that one song doesn't make him an anybody, particularly a Brent Mason. For my money, they don't get any better than Brent. I'm just saying that perhaps he's the closest thing the UK has to Brent Mason - not necessarily as good, but a pretty good runner-up. Here's another link, if you're interested:

Thanks for chiming in - appreciate it!

Hi David,

Thanks for checking this out. I noticed the dates on his music videos, too. Nonetheless, he's pretty danged good in my opinion.

I don't do social media at all - have Facebook account I've not been active in in several years. But the link you gave suggests to me this is the same guy - he says he's a musician and fracially looks like the same guy. Guess ya gotta be in good shape to lug those Teles, Strats and amps around!

Like you seem to be, I'm kind of curious why he doesn't post music any more, as you seem to be. I guess he has his reasons.

Very good player, his style (on that particular song) reminds me a bit of the late, great, Danny Gaton.

Hi Dave,

Yeah, I know what you mean about it's like looking in my mirror. Ha! I watched the video link you gave. That's a pretty talented band. The lady can really sing! Thanks for that link.

And yes, he does sound a bit like Gatton. And that's nothing to sneeze at. I've watched a number of videos with Gatton and Emmanuel together. Most enjoyable.

Thanks for your input., Best to you.

ALan

Al and Di,

This young man didn't just fall off of the pumpkin truck either.

I am normally unimpressed by 'speed playing' in favor of more melodic work, but this guitarist grabbed my attention.

Hi Don,

Always a real treat to hear from you. I've watched that Danny Donata You Tube video several times over the past several weeks. Thought maybe I'd pick up a lick or two. And I agree, he's very good!

Did you give him permission to use your hair style????

Alan
