not good titled but good video
he plays amazing technique. but i can't say he's the best. is that necessary to call him the best guitarist. the most important is you enjoy the music

thanks, very nice
hes really good, i also like tommy emanuell. there are so many talented players. he may be 'gifted' as pointed out, but he would have spent a large part of his waking hours practicing. many people could reach a high level of skill such as this if they were dedicated, and i mean their whole life. sounds like this guy did!

change the title!
That's a bold accusation to make--he's definately not the best, but he's damn good!!-5 star.

WHAT??
How the hell is this the best guitarist in the world? There's no way. Hasn't the person that named this vid ever heard Dimebag, or kirk hammett, or even hendrix or yngwie malmsteen for christ sake? damn

nice technique
interesting how he fingerpicks so fast, using the thumb and fore/middle fingers. I bet he can play the hell out of a banjo too!

people, wake up!
what are you talking about, when typing the phrase "best guitarist"??? have you heard of Michael Angelo? he's the FASTEST guitarist. have you heard of Steve Vai? he's the most MELODIC of all virtuosos! so what? neither michael nor vai or anyone else is the best! there is no best! there are great!

OK
Ok he is a good guitarist but not the best. If you like this kind of music listen Steve Ray Vaughan and then tell me who is the best

- pickups
  They're piezoelectric pickups in the bridge, not coil pickups. and yes, he's playing every note himself.

- The Best What?????
  What a stupid ignorant, next time just implied that you like it moran, The best guitar player of the worl till this moment is Paco de Lucia, he is so versatil, he can play rock&roll music (which is not his favorit) folk, tangos, and the best of the best is flamencos, THAT'S A GUITAR PLAYER.

You got to be kidding...
This guy couldn't even get a job at Guitar Center. Ever hear of Danny Gatton or Tommy Emmanuel. Those guys are THE real deal. Check 'em out you won't be disappointed.

- Man, I disagree
  Check that 17 min video on metacafe with Doyle and u'll c, what he can do with an acoustic guitar. He's really master skills, I've never seen such as technique as he can do, the voice is extremaly clear, every fraze is perfect. He isn't the fastest guitarist in the world, but he's fast enough to play everything. When someone is fast it doesn't mean, that he's good guitarist. That's why I agree with the title, but I'd add there acoustic and fingerstyle player in the world.
  Best wishes.

No gimmicks, just talent!!
Good ol' country pickin chord and lead work from a really talented musician.... A real joy to watch and listen to.. Even if the style of music doesn't float your boat you still have to appreciate his technique..

- If this is crappy...
  Then 99% of all guitar players might as well throw away their guitars lol.
  It seems like you say he plays crappy only because it's not the style of music you like.
  
  Anyway I really love this. Reminds me a lot of Tommy Emmanuel, but with a guitar with a bit softer less twangy sound. (I like both sounds at times)

He's VERY good but . . .
Watch/listen to some Chet Atkins sometime. He's a very good imitator.
