For those who are curious, Albert mainly played in open Fm which is F-C-F-Ab-C-F from low to high and would frequently use a capo, typically on the 5th, 7th or 9th fret. It's also been said he would tune to open Dm (D-A-D-F-A-D).
@tjalla ... Yes, you are a TRUE Albert Collins prodigy, along with Robbie Laws and JW Jones. Hey, when are you performing live at The Perth Blues Club? I want to take my son and meet you.
man youre one fine player, howd you manage that same collins sound without the mini humbucker at the neck? also which amp you using man, its got that real singin tone
Albert Collins mainly used the bridge of his Tele, though he sometimes used that and the PAF in the neck in unison, I can't recall him ever using just the neck pup.
woaw nice, i've tried too play in his style but i'm not so good like you !!!

Is the guitar tuned to an F#m chord, or standard tuning? Your tone and phrasing are nailing Albert!!!

@wapzilla - wow, an actual youtube reference to me. Flattering. Yes... AC is indeed the man, and still my no.1 guitar hero.
Bombayman - I can feel a blister on my index finder just watching you! Nice work copping AC licks on std tuning.
