I’ve seen Carlos on video tearing the ass out of a nylon guitar with fingerstyle classical playing. He really is a very versatile guitarist.

One of the most interesting things about these types of videos is discovering that a guy I thought was just a partying rock dude, actually knows a lot of music theory.

I once met him at a Harley Davidson dealership in Honolulu where he was appearing before a small gig. The place was empty and I fell a bit sorry for him. Took some pics with him, he signed me a program and he couldn’t have been nicer.

I am 62 and a long time drummer. I come from his 80's rock era. Opened for Motorhead and Motley Crue back in the day. Have seen so many guys that had success back in the day still at it playing in a little bar or county fair at best. I just couldn't deal with let down, disappointment, and humiliation of playing a real "show" to now some little bar with no one listening to you play.

He's Eddie Van Halen's favorite guitarists and hundreds of others that's heard him. They all agree and John Mclaughlin said it best in that they have no idea what Allan is doing, if they could figure it out, they'd steal it! They also all agree that his music is beautiful and the best comparison I've heard is: 'It's like a circus flying thru the sky"

There were so many Bands appearing! 'Was like tryin to count Sand grains in your hand! Tho I Cant Believe he just called what He's holding and Playing a 'Gibson SG' a (Studio Les Paul!) wtf?! That's kinda like Carrol Shelby sitting in a Mustang' and Sayin "I'm sitting in a Cobra 427! ? _This must have been a Marketing gimmick' to get awareness of the Video itself' so he could validate that He wasn't a Poser! and that He was a Solid pro Guitarist!

Cavazo knows what he’s taking about. The SG was originally called a “Les Paul,”but Les Paul, himself, who was not involved in the design, disliked the design and demanded his name removed from it. Gibson removed his name from the model after 1963 and called it the “SG.”
