Alex Trendler says:

a guy named after a two guitars hosts a guitar show with two guitarists and compares hearing great guitar music to JFK: illuminati confirmed!

kkkfts says:

Does he anchor his right hand?

John Twomey says:

Does anyone know what the name of the piece he mentions at 4:17 is? I can't make out what he's saying (switch on the subtitles, I think they may have also misheard)

Daniel Ibanez says:

Good to hear Tony gives credit to Dave Graham and Pierre Bensusan who, among others, explored these alternate tunings over the several previous decades.
I believe they all contributed to create a new sound for the Celtic guitar and expand the fingerpicking techniques and capabilities.

William Bann says:

his guitar has crooked frets

Dave Webster says:

Looking in at my Favourite players …Cheers Martin and Tony

51MontyPython says:

That guitar is literally unbelievable. Just of this world. The perfect tone I've always searched for yet didn't even think was possible.

six6to8eight says:

@mcmanustony Could you let us know what tune you're playing a bit of starting at 8m50s? Sounds beautiful… Thank you!

Dave Webster says:

Thank you Martin….. It also helps your sound when you play a well crafted instrument. I myself prefer Not to change the stresses on my guitar by altering the tuning. I like to just add a capo that does Not cover all strings ….just a thought 🙂

Mickey says:

Oh, didn`t know google builds guitars c:

Ben G. says:

I loved this, thank you. Gotta dig Tony McManus. 

BUT, ocd me wants to straighten the capo at the end. 

Bert Mon says:

what guitar is Tony playing in this vid?

Bernie Holland says:

This is just wonderful – and credit to martin for being so open hearted – in the end there is just music – I love this – thank you so much ! 

Mark Roger D. Garguena says:

Jack Williamson says:

Beautiful rendition of gs mclennan's inveran

sayno2BIGgovernment says:

It's a new model from Michael Greenfield (Canadian) called the G1.2
2 year wait list and starts @ around $8,000-10,000 US. Only difference between the G1 and the G1.2 is the fanned frets. Hope this helped

Dan Bankhurst says:

WHat kind of guitar is that?

undergroundbasement says:

Ha ! Whats the chance of that , being a known guitarist and your first name is a brand of guitar as well as your last name is also another brand of guitar , lol !!!

Dave Webster says:

It is so wonderfull to see & hear Martin interviewing and playing on You Tube…. He is such a wonderfull man & muscian… Incredible to see & hear Tony ….his playing is inspirational to say the least.. I lean towards alternate capos… My thoughts are, to retune , alternates the stress on the instrument and upsets the balance. I look forward to more vids from Martin …Love to see him in Alberta some day …You are definitely on my bucket list …Cheers from Alberta
