The Sixteen Men Of Tain (A. Holdsworth), a demo. of the theme by Robert Ritchiesse

Forgive me for my terrible english in this video. Also: I’m not saying that my rendition of this tune is “True“ (read: ’accurate’); it is just my rendition. That’s all. In this video I’m using four Digitech 2101 GSP Studio Tube Processors, plugged into a mini PA – the “main“ devices“ in my guitar-rigg. That 11-stringed guitar is my “main ax“ since almost 20 years. The guitar was made by luthiers on my commission and from my performance requirement. The tuning system, from “top to bottom“ followed by string dimensions: g 0,007, d 0,010, bb 0,013, f 0,018w, C 0,026, G 0,036, D 0,046, G 0,060, Eb 0,074, D 0,074, C 0,074. May the Holdsworthian Force be with you all …
