Have people heard of Erik Mongrain? I had not, and nor had I seen a guitar played quite like this (as an Appalachian Dulcimer, essentially) before, but this is apparently an iconic video from the early days of Youtube. As a fan of this kind of thing, it's very good! - Kotaku In Action 2

This is not exactly the same (Ocean, by John Butler) but it's my go-to acoustic guitar instrumental video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdYJf_ybyVo

It's an almost "spiritual" experience, for me, listening to that.

Edit: Be warned that the absolute pricks at Youtube now put ads in the middle of the video (as they do for almost anything over 5 minutes, now), which rather ruins the whole experience. But if you can find a recording of this track somewhere, I really do recommend it. Hugely.

uBlock Origin.

Does it work for in-video ads, though?

I thought those were unblockable now…

Nope. I haven't seen a YT ad, or really many ads at all, in years.
