I think we all know what this video is about... I assure you, it isn't the guitar. She never even played a chord, just open strings. For those who don't know, playing the open strings on a guitar is of virtually no musical significance - the open strings amount to, at best, dissonance. If anything, she was playing an Em, but she skipped the two strings that would have been pressed down to make the chord anyways. 

Despite the flagrant disregard for musical integrity and, in turn, the guitar itself, I still enjoyed the video. Good stuff.

I'm actually thinking about buying a Soviet guitar.  The seller has lots of very bad playing demos on his web page.  I thought this one was up to SNMT standards.

Funny, it never occurred to me there would be Soviet musical instruments. Are their guitars good? Like American, Gibson, Martin good?

This guy makes guitars out of shovels. American shovels. In America.

 

 

And he plays them very well. I like his percussive approach to guitar playing.

Oh, and he sells them too.
