Glen Campbell - William Tell Overture
 

Glen Campbell was well known as a singer/songwriter but not everyone
knows of his extraordinary guitar playing talent.

Here's an early performance of the "William Tell Overture" done on an
acoustic guitar. He usually did this on an electric.

I think the guitar is an Ovation Classical meaning the neck is wide and
flat, not like most modern acoustics with a narrow neck with a radius.

A classical style is much more difficult to play, especially for a song
like this:
