Nope.
I don't have the time to transcribe it either.

He plays real clean, with a half decent slow downer it's not going to take that long to transcribe. Playing it as well as that though, now there I would need to invest some time

My inner alarm goes off whenever I see someone bend their thumb inwards at the middle joint like he's doing...

lol. Nah all I meant is that there is no way on earth he's getting any volume with his thumb the way he's doing it. It makes me wonder if he's playing with any strength with the other fingers too. If he plays like this all the time, I suspect he sounds great with amplification, but then gets drowned out by the palmeros without it. My teacher would kill me if he saw my thumb bending in like that!
