Musicianship does not equal artistry, but to be hone even his musicianship wasn't really that spectacular for this kind of thing.
gammon What did you want from this video? It's a technical exhibition from one of the world's greatest living guitarists. Have you heard Animals As Leaders or Tosin's other music?
From your comment it seems you are discrediting his "artistic" worth, which would only make sense if you were familiar with his music. What group or who would you currently consider to exhibit "artistry"? A highly relative subject anyways.

Billy the Poet Django only needed 6 strings and 8 fingers.
charmlessman Would have been better if he didn't set his amp at the "Broken Banjo" setting.
