What kind of guitar is he playing? It sounded like he had a touch of delay added to the mix. Beautiful tone and beautiful execution.

Jean Yves plays a Wiesner
so does Lionel Wendling

Wiesner is Swiss built
not in production anymore since the builder passed away
these steels were influenced by another Swiss builder : Schild

If you want save youtube clip video on your hard disk:

Then, go to : http://javimoya.com/blog/youtube_en.php
paste the clip URL click on "download"
After downloading, in the window "dowload" under click (right- click) save target as => get_video
rename the clip and add ".flv", choose your directory and save.

Read the clip with FLV player

Thanks for posting these. It's great to hear how all of these different people take the steel and approach it in various ways.

Please post more!

Nice site, guys! I had no idea there were so many French steelers.

Crowbear, good to see you again, holding forth in your workshop. Keep on Zumming . . . I mean strumming.
