Nik Kershaw & Jakko Jakszyk PRS demo

markv

Some of the nicest playing I've heard for a while has been on this puff piece for PRS that was on the Guitarist YT channel a month or so ago. There's about a minute of playing, then some chat, then from 4:30 they start playing again. For my money Nik's playing and tone is my preference, but you can't fault the quality guitar faces pulled by Jakko.

This isn't really my field of expertise - can anyone tell me what this music is and recommend more in the same vein?

I didn't recognise Kirk Nickshaw!

Me either. He's a much tastier player than I thought too.

He uses Badcats live too. Proper tasty tone.

Ah, that's why he's sitting obscuring his amp while Jakko's amp is prominently displaying the PRS logo ...

Nice,I remember seeing Jakko years ago when he tour'ed with level 42,he did great on pretty much everything untill he hit the holdsworth solo on "if you were mine"

I showed this video to my wife and even when I pointed out that one of them was Nik Kershaw she still didn't believe me.
He's still a tasty player though.
