@shinkongo Thanks man. Ok, so my ears played a trick on me (laughter). Just as I had thought; you’re in E b tuning playing in the F# position in the key of F. I know E b tuning is based on standard guitar tuning, except that all of the strings are lowered by a half-step. And is great for heavier strings to make bends easier. It also serves to reduce stress on the neck. Transposing is easier when jamming in a band w/horns. Jimi - Little Wing, etc... Stevie worked in Eb a lot, as well.
@shinkongo shit, truth is, i gotta be the world's worst typograhist. here, I'll try again... the thought was... in E b tuning it's much easier to transpose when jamming along with the horns. SRV worked in Eb a lot.
Lastly, (laughter) No horns in Jimi's Little Wing.
What kind of good stuff are we missing after 420?

@e7eb7 It's played in F# position.. But the sound is in F. Because the tuning is down to E flat.
