Guys I went to see Diesel at the Governor Hindmarsh in Adelaide on Friday night. Right in the front row and he put on such a great show. He plays with great energy and gives his all, great guitarist. The clip I'm posting is not from Friday but it's to give those you don't know him a feel. The guitar he is playing is a Diesel Maton Mini, an awesome, solid blackwood and spruce guitar made for him and now a production line offering. (yes I have one). In my humble opinion this guy never achieved the fame his talent deserved, but I guess he's not alone there. Please take a look.

For the techies out there who consider such things interesting - he plays his 12 string as a 11 string, removing the high G because he doesn't like the highest string on the guitar ringing with the mids.......kind of the opposite of Roger McGuinn.
