Yeah, thats much more clear.

Unfortunately it isn't a guitar, its a synth patch. It sounds kind of like a cross between a Harpsichord patch and a 12 string guitar patch. You can tell by the fact the notes have a very consistent tonal quality that simply wouldn't happen on a guitar, and the notes are struck very precisely. A guitarist would have natural variation in pitch and timbre that doesn't occur here.

I couldn't tell you how to recreate it, but I can tell you a real guitar will never sound like that.

Edit: Actually, you could get close, but you'd need to compress the signal a LOT, and use a whole host of wacky effects to get anywhere near close. Even then, I'm not sure how close you could really get.
