Internet Discoveries: Justin King

Justin King, guitar player extraordinaire.

Actually simply calling Justin a 'guitar player' is doing the man a great diservice. Clearly this man knows more about the guitar and its possibilities than mere mortals like me will ever know.

And take a look at the man's hands. Those fingers go on forever! With hands like that, Justin would also make a great piano player (for all I know he does play piano, too). Of course, just having a great pair of hands - does not a guitar player make. You have to have the patience and time to put in hours and hours of practise to get to the point that Justin has arrived at.

You can find out more by visiting Justin King's page at SONY BMG, or by going to Justin's personal official website. Both sites offer extensive music streaming of his material, and you could do a lot worse than checking out the man and his music. Justin appears to moving away from solo acoustic guitar gigs, and has now put together a band that also showcases his fine songwriting talents as well.

The double neck guitar Justin is playing in the clip below, was designed specifically for him by Mike Doolin, of Doolin Guitars.

What's money?
