If you don't know this man, go to itunes and purchase anything you can find by the artist of Victor Wooten, and Bela Fleck and the Flecktones.

He's truly an inspiration, and has the most down to earth attitude that anyone could ever see in a person.

Editing is quite minimal on this:

crop
curves
levels
clone out some little distracting metal things that were in the foreground
resize
smart sharpen
save for web

DAMN this is good! almost cartoonish, which works somehow. even the amp's cord's outline helps underscore the lighting's drama.
