Ron Thal has a Fantasie Impromptu tapped version on guitar.


I have the tab, want to learn it someday.

It's really cool.

I've got a video clip with John Petrucci of Dream Theater playing the 10/2. Haven't watched it for quite a while so can't say anything about his tempo or other such things...but I'd think it's quite fast and metronomically dull. And clean and precise of course, as he always is.

If you can post I would be very interested.

Chromatic scales on the guitar are rather "easy", though. But playing it with the chords ? Seems damn insane.

okay, not that impressive then. I think I could do this providing a little practice (might be presomptuous, though). I don't really feel like spending time at it, anyway.
