Just a lot of cliched overdrive like you've heard lesser talents get a million times.
Carlos excites the strings differently than most of us. He uses HUGE triangular picks that almost no one but Carlos uses! And the way he holds that big pick is "odd".
Most of us couldn't play with them and then we wonder how he gets his tone!
He's a very unique guy. His sound is oozing with soul and spirituality and feeling.
I'll bet if Carlos plugged into my stuff he'd sound like Carlos.
And if I plugged into his stuff I'd still sound like me because I would play the way I always do and play the notes and melodies and licks that come naturally to me and which I'm drawn to play.
