Thomas Leeb – Comfortably Numb (Pink Floyd) acoustic cover solo

Thanks! Share it with your friends!

fingerstyle guitar version of the iconic Pink Floyd song

DADGAD tuning (well, the same intervals but starting on A#)

A few months ago I stumbled back upon Pink Floyd’s “The Wall” which didn’t only give me midlife crisis when I was twelve but also sparked a deep love for music and the guitar in particular.
I’m still in love with David Gilmour’s guitar voice to this day but, since I don’t have the faintest clue what to do with an electric guitar, I decided to pick up my baritone and see what I could do with the acoustic guitar tools I’ve picked up over the years. Playing this is a blast and I hope you like the result!

Thomas – still the original master of percussive guitar, mastered a trend, and keeping it vital and relevant, like Michael Hedges.

I didn't even know you could get a Lowden baritone. Did you swap some hens teeth with a unicorn for it? That has got a be a rare bit of kit. The factory is about 2 miles from my old house and Mr Lowdens father was my geography teacher. Nice skills man, love this interpretation. Thanks.

Reminds me of Igor Presnyakov. But I've gotta say this guy is a lot much smoother than Ig.
