Now this guy really is good.

Don't worry, it's not shred. I know my reputation precedes me.

His location is given as Nashville, so I presume he's a session guy. His name's Jack Ruch, and he is a really really lovely player.

Lovely feel, phrasing, note choice, tone, you name it. I really like the way he outlines the chord changes he's playing over - it's the sort of thing I need to start paying more attention to.

Agree, nice playing.

Edit:-  He reminds me a little of Robben Ford thinking about it.

Very unusual for a Nashville player not to use his little finger at all. Some nice feel & phrasing, but doesn't really stand out for me I'm afraid.  However, just had a look on youtube & he has some nice tutorial vids  that I'm going to try & pinch some stuff from.

Enjoyed all of that. Any idea if he's played on anything good?
