@@realtoken Yes man, believe, Synister is only second in technique currently to Kiko Loureiro who is certainly the top one at the moment. Synister plays harder things than you might think. If you're not a guitarist, consider that the more difficult techniques like arpeggios and some of the more difficult lics, Synister uses with mastery. But undeniably, talking about playing more technically, the top one is Kiko loureiro, followed by Synister
damn straight! seen him a few weeks ago, met him after the gig and he was nearly in tears with the appreciation of everyone being there.. such a humble dude
I'm totally in love with this ultra-reverb/delay effect. You can get a pretty similar effect on guitar rig - f.e. with the "Warm Universe" or "Clean Cave" preset :3
Devin is everything I love from a performer and a songwriter. One of my absolute favorite songs, and the performance at Royal Albert Hall still makes me cry. Too much emotion to contain.
omg.... you have NO idea, the amount of jealousy I have for your presence at the time of this song being performed.... The only thing that could ever surpass it, would be if he played all of Ocean Machine while on a U.K. tour!
Jesus christ, this gave me the chills. I love the raw emotion. Thank you so much for uploading this, it's helping me through a very difficult time right now. I love and miss you Tara, and I can't wait to see you again soon!
Yo hace años busqué en Internet las personas con el rango vocal mas amplio y en una lista, apareció Devin townsend, fui a buscarlo porque no lo conocía y la primera canción que oí fue Kingdom y no manches quedé estupefacto y con piel de gallina.

His guitar is an acoustic electric guitar. It can play acoustic songs, but you can also plug it into an amp, which is what he's doing in the video. You can hear the effects of the amp with the 'echo', like you said, and by how loud the guitar is. The title of the video says that it's 'unplugged', but his guitar's is being run through an amp, so it isn't unplugged.
"Devin Townsend - Deadhead Unplugged" Maybe 'acoustic' would work better in that case, since there's clearly a cord coming out of the back of the guitar.
TheMeaning0fLife technically 'unplugged' refers to the fact that it is acoustic, when it is normally electric, so it's very qualified to be 'unplugged' as in contrast to the original song
