Just amazing.  I went to his web site and he seems like a guy who really likes to help out budding guitarists.  He links all his youtube videos where you can watch his fingering and he provides free tab to 12 of his songs (both originals and covers.)  Then he provides a section called licks and tricks where he breaks down some of his favorites sections.

I was attempting Whiter Shade of Pale, which seemed easiest, and only got to the point where it would be recognizable if you told your audience in advance what you were playing so they could listen for it!

That guy can't possibly be human?!!!  He's cramming 17,312 notes per second into every other measure, it sounds fluid, flawless, beautiful.  AND... he's not even watching his hands slip siddin' up and down the neck like greased lightnin'  Who's he trying to kid?  There's no way he could be human.

No doubt...THAT'S the definition of effortless.
