Still hate it.....Naa naaa na...I'm just jokin!

 

That whole clip is just amazing...what he can do with just

a C harp. But C over C is traditionally 1st position...and Howard

displays allot of tricks in his bag besides just stickin to common

ground. I thought it sounded Great actually. His Tone & Phrasing

reminds me of an electric violin actually...along the lines of

John Luc Ponty...or more traditionally...Don "Sugercane" Harris.
