  Starts rather slow, so you are like "ok, sounds good, but it's not really
all that special". By the 2:30 mark you are like "hey, this kid is quite
talented". By the 4-minute mark you are like "holy shit!". By the end your
synapses start committing suicide.

  In the next one you don't have to wait at all for the "holy shit!"

I supose you mean Hotel California tab?
Google "Tomi Paldanius hotel california" and you should find one or two 
guitar pro tabs.
Guitar pro tabs can be read by guitar pro of course but by tux guitar (free) 
as well.

That said  it is not my favourite cover by Sungha Jung.
Have a look at his Youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/jwcfree

You can actually tell from the first second on that this guy knows what 
he's doing.

My, that really looks like both hard work /and/ skill!

That's originally for violin concerto, isn't it?

Yes, from Vivaldi's Four Seasons.

  You didn't find it odd that I first say "starts slow..." and the I say
"in the next one you don't have to wait at all"?

Sounds awful. "Wonder Kid" guitar playing always does to me. Don't know 
if it's something to do with the setup of the guitar for a kid's low 
hand strength.

I suspect light strings and loooow action don't allow for much variation 
in volume or stroke. I find a lot of the classical fingerstyle vids on 
youtube impressive for a few seconds, but get bored *very* quickly.

Don't get me wrong, the kid is amazing. Just not something I can listen 
to for about a minute.

Might sound a little more like this when he grows up:

Though that's a bit noisy for my tastes. I prefer:

Check out Doc's left hand strength.

Closer to what the kid's going for?

Just because it's a favorite.

His dad's song, but an acoustic version for consistency.

The thing I can't figure out is that the sound doesn't appear to match 
what his hands are doing. (Presumably this is due to an optical illusion 
rather than because the video is faked.) Notes change without him moving 
his fingers, and the notes seem to play faster than he plucks the strings.

...and then there's this, where you can't even *see* how the notes are 
generated. Pretty crazy though, eh?

  Youtube videos are not always in sync with the sound, if you haven't
noticed. Probably has something to do with flash.

pull-offs, hammer-ons, bends, and slides.

The second video I posted in this thread shows how notes can be changed 
with the left hand. Takes a good amount of hand strength, as does the 
clear sound produced by shortening the notes with the left hand (by 
letting up on the strings).

Here it is again.
