  • because playing on a 6 string was a bit too easy

  • Comment removed

  • Joe Satriani came on after SRV. What a tough act to follow

  • I hope that guitar was over 18, because it just got fucked. Hard.

  • @dairydave96 Hahahahaha!

  • Immediately after, the guitar walked outside, had a cigarette and knew it would never be played like that again.

  • @moopadoopolus yeah, I agree I liked the tribute tour back in the 80's because they showed footage of Ronnie before the concert and I loved Ronnie but had no idea what he looked like or acted. but now they just seem like a redneck joke.

  • mtv, now available on vh1....

  • if vh1 and mtv have nothing to do with music (screw vh33 or other cable anamolies) they should change their name, like to tbs (trite b/s

  • Are there other songs on this acoustic? Where can i find them?

  • WHEN MTV WAS A MUSIC CHANNEL...

  • fantastic upload, but I'd swear it says VH1 not MTV in the corner.

  • How many artists today could do an acoustic set, without the BS to make them sound good. No one!

  • SRV > MTV

  • should i be a dick and ask for tabs? lOL

  • Holy shit i didn't know that could be done with a twelve string!

  • I love SRV, but dislike 12 string..

  • @Thumbsupforus dude ur a hater man

    

  • is that a vh1 logo in the corner?

  • He facking crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I like hem

  • the action of this guitar after the show was measured at 3 inches.

    :D

  • @ZeppelinDude95 that ballocks, no way would it be 3 inches

  • @MrUnseenBucket i understand, i was just stating that if it really was 3 inches, SRV could play it with ease.

  • @ZeppelinDude95 oh right hahah, silly me :D

  • Why doesnt MTV play this shit? all they play now is no music and plenty of pregnant women and shitty dramas :(

  • hmm not bad

  • @MrCrazyDunka nope. too bad

  • @MrCrazyDunka yeah but if they let see this kind of music, maybe good music will come back

    sorry for my bad english

  • remind me again why I even try to play?

  • if MTV was like this more often i might actually watch it... R.I.P SRV

  • cue the mosh pit!!

  • hope my neighbors like this

  • that note at the end was the best one

  • 3 people are deaf and bieber fans

  • @nholt I know right. The unplugged series was the best there was.

  • Wait... this was actually on MTV?!

  • who's gonna play blues on a 12 string acoustic after that lol

  • the good ones die young dont they? rude mood and texas flood are imo his best. but opinions are like a#$%holes....we all got em. as for mtv...reality tv is ruining it and every other station.

  • This is some serious plucking folks!!!!

  • Theres videos of UFO's, videos of unimaginable things, and then this video. I tend to believe more on the UFO videos than this.

  • i like how people tried to clap to the beat and then gave up....

  • I've become an expert at stringing guitars ever since I started playing SRV, on the bad side I completely destroyed the frets on my strat thanks to playing he's rough aggressive style. A guitar tec guy once told me "Guys like him(SRV) are sprinkled with magic dust when their born" Stevie's style is not human. anyone else hands would cramp or bleed under that much speed, aggressiveness, endurance and on heavy strings too.

  • ничего пиздатие невидел

  • real men are the ones who listen to this

    

  • What happend to MTV these days?

  • @rishino It's full of crap, that's what.

  • @rishino It used to be MUSIC television. Now its MATERNITY television. (Pregnant in heels, shit like that.)

  • @rishino  it die :(

  • @rishino maybe justin bieber unplugged?

  • I just realized that I didn't even blink or look around!!! and I HAVE OCD LIKE A MOTHER!! He's absolutely without a doubt the best there ever was or will be!! Irreplaceable people!!

  • I feel so fortunate to have grown up in the 1980s with good rock and roll like this and yes MTV actually did play music, not this dumb reality garbage they air 24 hours a day 7 days per week

    Now all you hear for music is dumb rap shit, Katy Perry and Justin Beiber. Oh my, kids today have no idea what good rock and roll really is

  • Man, he is surely missed ' down here ' !

    In Rock & Roll Heaven .

  • 3 people should have been on that helicopter instead of Stevie.

  • For those of you who don't play guitar, that is absolutely fucking murder on your fingers to play a 12 string like that. That instrument was designed for rythem playing, not lead...Fucking SRV, what a legend.

  • @mrpicky510 i acctually thought from my experience playing a 12 string that the strings felt easier on my fingers

  • man, he just raped that twelve string, incredible

  • this is on vh1 not mtv

  • @DMY69 - It was originally broadcast on MTV. VH1 is owned by the same company.

  • @roblarosa i missed where it said mtv at the beginning lol

  • Comment removed

  • damn. the best.

  • People always compare steve vai, yngwie and those types to EVH... In all honesty, Id put EVH and SRV in the same bracket... they are just sooooo natural and at ease, playing whatever the fuck they want, not to be cool or sound good, but just to enjoy themselves. If EVH gave a shit, he'd lose a lot of his charisma in his playing, and SRV is the same way.

  • best guitar play of all time......... argue that!!!! If you think not, you are wrong!

  • @snappynuts eh, I love SRV, but there are "better" guitar players out there. You may enjoy SRV the most, but that doesnt mean Steve Vai isnt more technically proficient at the guitar.

  • @JgHaverty

    Actually he isn't. And there is no such thing as a "better" guitar player once they've reached the "great" level

  • check out achilles version

  • quality music

  • I agree 100%. Rap , hip hop< R and B is SHIT! And MTV is shit. people nowadays dont know shit about real music. and now with the "autotuner" the only real talent you had to have you dont need anymore. That is SINGING! So fucking gay

  • Ahhh yes the good old days when MTV played good music, not garbage "reality" tv, seems alot of arguing is going on over a whole lot of nothing, lets not cloud the fact that SRV just OWNED that 12 string!

  • With a 12 string guitar people. A 12 string.

  • @andros1984 what do you mean?

  • @estderoma It's a guitar with 12 strings?

  • @DJBBQ well, a 12 string isn't harder to play than a 6 strings ( and SRV used to play 0.13 strings on electric!)

  • @estderoma Actually it is, not saying the movement is any harder, just making sure you have both strings depressed all the way, and not muting them.

  • @75SilentWarrior not only that the neck is twice as thick

  • @guitardude522 Somewhat thicker, but not twice as much.

  • @andros1984 And most likely .13 gauge like usual. Ouch..

  • @andros1984 it's fucking immense isn't it :D

  • whoever "disliked" this video, I hope you die a horrible death. You have no idea what greatness is.

  • mtv stands for music television but now they play no more music...ok..

  • are his fingers made of steel?

  • @ryanc177 actually...... titanium i think....

  • MTV's gone from this to Jersey Shore. Wow. I can't imagine there being a time when MTV did not suck ass..

  • The aim of my life is to be able to play this song. Then I can die happy

  • say whatever you want but in my mind, Stevie Ray's music was...IS... a billion time better then the music Justin Bieber put's out!!!!

  • This is a 12 string guitar rendition and OMG how awesome...to play this so fast and clear is epic...unreal

  • 4 People are in a Rude Mood

  • You gotta have a beefed up tremolo on your Strat to play 13s like Stevie.

  • AAAAAAAwsome

  • I just listened this clip for over 20 times. On X-mas!! :-)

    This is soooooo great!! I hope I'll live till 150 years, so I can practise for 100 years to touch this level of world-famous-guitar play... SRV plays the stars out of the sky...

  • 4 people doesn't know the quality of SRV!

  • I feel so lucky to have grown up in the 1980s when there was good rock and roll music and MTV actually played music

    There is no good music today, just fucking rap and that faggot Justin Beiber shit

  • I dont even know what to say accept WOW

  • Why is there a VH1 logo in the corner of the video .... but it's credited to MTV?

    What ever channel aired this, thank god ... some o my fav SRV tracks are these solo acoustic takes of some of his great songs

  • There are guitar legends and then... there's Stevie =)

  • 12 stringing it!! What a stud!!!!

  • does people who dislike this video.

    I want them to play rude mood on a twelve stringed guitar!

    Fucking idiots!

  • @stanleystar1 Or play rude mood period! Fucking hard in the first place, but then playing it on a 12 string acoustic, Stevies hands must have been fine because he played 13's but for someone like me used to 10's or 11's my hands would have hurt for about an hour afterwards!

  • @PRSguy94 what kind of guitar do you play with?

  • @stanleystar1 It's not the guitar, It's the strings that I use. I use .013-.056 gauge strings tuned to Eb like stevie did on his number one strat. (You can see that he uses thick strings the Live at El Mocambo when he plays Lenny).

  • @PRSguy94 yes the it depends on the guitar to!

    It depends on how long your neck is! I don´t know the english word for it :P

    But I play on a Gibson Sg i use 0,12 0,52, but i only get the effect of a 0,11 on a strat.

    Btw where did you find so heavy strings without wounded G string?? :)

  • This song is hard enough to play as it is but on a 12 string????

    God Damn what a fucking stud

  • 4 people need to die

  • He had magic on his fingers.

  • on a 12 string no less....this is just so beyond me it makes me want to cry haha

  • this is on myv?!? blasphemy!! I want moar shit rap

  • This is when MTV actually were real music fans. Those days have been over for years. MTV has abandoned all their integrity.

  • @diamonddust22 bullshit. mtv has always played what was big. and as much as i hate to say it. rap is the big deal at the moment.

  • @heyhowami Wrong, MTV use to play music when record companies actually gave a shit. Rap is garbage and isn't music, and neither is hiphop, and that modern R&B has nothing to do with rhythm or blues. Like I said, MTV has abandoned all it's integrity just like the record companies have. Music today is formulaic fraudulance, that is created from templates used from songs that were hits that go way back to the 40's and 50's. Pure Garbage through and through.

  • @diamonddust22 hey man you got no right to call it garbage if its not you cup of tea fine but all music is good in its own way

  • @diamonddust22 There is a lot of crappy rap and hip hop. But to call an genre crap i ignorant. Most mainstream rap i terrible, but there is a lot of great poets out there aswell.

  • @diamonddust22 Brother, you have hit the nail on the fuckin' head...

  • @tkdcommando Thank you so much. Nice to see other Rock n Rollers out there still in the fight. Take Care.

  • @diamonddust22 ive been really ticked off with people talkin about r&b and saying they like it, but then say they hate blues. r&b IS rhythm and blues, and i wonder how usher got grouped in with that......

  • @flashlight067 This modern shit R&B has nothing to do with Rhythm or Blues. Usher is garbage and is nothing more then a Micheal Jackson clone and a glamourized karaoke clown just like the rest of those hand puppets of this modern era. The Real Rhythm and Blues is about real talent and is the real deal. This moder stuff that labels itself as R&B has nothing to do with Rhythm or Blues, it's just plastic polish shit.

  • @diamonddust22

    "when record companies actually gave a shit"...and when would that be? I agree with most everything else you said, however.

  • @diamonddust22 I have a 13 year old daughter and she is basically not allowed to watch MTV unless I am watching it with her. It's disgusting.

  • @marybarone98 You are so right. MTV is as bad as BET. It is pretty digusting for sure.

  • @diamonddust22 agreed..

  • @jimhmr Right on brother

  • @diamonddust22 go make a time machine and get your complaining ass in the past. cry me a river man

  • @Ccbroo Hey you snot nosed cock sucker. It's not anyone's fault that your generations can't play instruments or write songs. Blame your own lazy motherfuckin asses for that, you lazy bitch. The Fact still remains that musicians in the past were better, and kids like you suck fuckin ass. Cry you a river? If you were in front of me, I'd smack your teeth out you faggot. Tough guy on the internet, but coward in real life.

  • @diamonddust22 well don't start sobbing all over me old man. There is still enough good music, but I guess old stubborn people with a narrow taste had their hearing gone bad over the years. Im not the one threatening people over the internet, I guess thats what the real tough dudes out there do. Come to my home with your wheelchair and ride over me or something.

  • @Ccbroo Oh so you think calling me an old man make you supreme over me? I could out do you in anything positive, physical, and constructive, and the only thing you can outdo me in is being a dumb fuckin chimp. It's not anyone's fault you are trained to like shit, and you can't play an instrument or write a song from beginning to the end. I have military experience lil boy, you wouldn't want me coming to your house, trust me you fucking diaper rashed amateuric coward.

  • @diamonddust22 I post stuff like this, because I hate people that "know" what music is about and post complete bullshit. What music sucks right now? Stop complaining and start using your head. Different age, different energy. I used to listen to classical music before I started on pop and blues, and I never complain that stuff isnt the way it used to be in 1700. I digg everything and I play both piano, organ and guitar. I can see your angry, that makes you weak.

  • @Ccbroo You know nothing about music. You are nothing but a troll who likes shit. Modern music is pure garbage. Music today has never been worse then it has in the entire history of music. You are just a big mouth little kid who can't play an instrument or write a song, and until you can, your words will mean nothing and will always fall on deaf ears. Go wack off to Justin Bieber or your monkey lippin rap stars lil boy.

  • @diamonddust22 aha so your that kind of person that goes to Justin Bieber's page just to dislike his vids huh? Maybe I overestimated you as an old man, but I think I am dealing with a rather young sprout here. Justin Bieber and miss Gaga are not the only two artists on 6 billion people. Maybe you should check out my channel: theres rap, pop,soul,jazz,classical music, blues, ad techno all lined up for the poor kid that can't see past poor Justin Bieber that haunts him in his dreams.

  • @Ccbroo Who says I go to a Justin Bieber page just to dislike it? Those are your words little boy. Quit trying to transfer and project your sick retarded brain bullshit into the lives of other people, you ass licking troll. Why would I check out your channel you spamming whore. Like I said, you can't play an instrument or write songs, you are just a loud mouth punk on You Tube trolling the internet. Go fuck off and wipe your ass diaper rash.

  • @diamonddust22 still so much anger, but I guess people with a small psychiatric disorder can't help it. Im actually a (nearly) trained psychologist too, so as a professional I can now safely advise you to go see your docter because you've forgotten your prescription today. Gotta go to bed now, mommy calls. If you ever decide to beat me up, swim over to Holland and we ll have a bar fight.

  • @Ccbroo Yep typical default responses from a habitual Troll. I can tell you do this every place you go on YouTube

  • @diamonddust22 at least Im not the one making death threats over the internet, but Ill guess ill leave that one up for the tough dudes with millitary experience.

  • @Ccbroo Again, you lie. First you say I look up Justin Bieber videos just to dislike it. Then you say I make death threats. Both of these are lies, and further proof that you are a Troll on YouTube that causes fights. I suggest you go practice an instrument, instead of practicing your mouth.

  • @diamonddust22 I suggest you do just that m8, Ive never been offensive to you and you say you're gonna smack my teeth out. Maybe its normal in American redneck culture or wherever you are from, but I am not used to people talking to me like that when I midly suggest you should cry me a river with your "music used to be better" bull. Okay kid? And if I am actually a troll, which im not, I sure fucked you into this one.

  • @Ccbroo Yeah here we go. You don't get your own way, and someone puts you in your fucking place so the only default thing you can call them is a redneck. You have to be more original then that punk. You are used to people talking to you like that? Well, it's about time you were put in your fucking place troll boy. You came here and insult me and you expect nothing back. MTV is garbage today and that is a fact. Lastly, you are a complete troll. Get the fuck off the page you worthless punk

  • @diamonddust22 yeah well you've called me 50+ more names than I did you, including threatening to smack my teeth in (over the internet! tough man). Well I guess ill respect you for the army man you are sir, and declare you now the winner of this war if this makes you feel better. Go outside and celebrate by smacking in some teeth, but if you'd ask me your dad should've given you 2 extra punches a week when you were a bit younger to get you disciplined. Ccbroo out, and goobye, twat.

  • @C You come here as a troll and insult people with no purpose at all other then to shoot off you troll mouth. I am have more discipline then you will ever have or ever know. You are not qualified to say half the bullshit you are saying. When you are 10 to 15 years older, then maybe you might have half the wisdom and knowledge that I do. Nice try is attempting to puff out your chest, but in the long run you are just a diaper rashed pussy that can't play any instrument with your big mouth running

  • @diamonddust22 Im sorry, I wasn't listening. 

  • @diamonddust22 Except for the VH1 logo in the bottom right corner.

  • @drpeck104 Nice try you uninformed little boy, but MTV owns VH1.

  • @diamonddust22 Actually, they are both owned by Viacom, which also owns Nicelodeon, Comedy Central, and a many other channels.

  • @drpeck104 Actually go suck a dick, and learn to spell. We are talking MTV owning VH1, and the fact that MTV doesn't care about real music. Get off the page you fucking troll cunt boy. MTV owns many things and plays shit. That is the bottom line, so don't twist it to fit your fucking rhetoric

  • @diamonddust22 Way to get worked up, douche. I don't give a fuck about MTV, and I never argued that they ever played anything but shit. I will give you that MTV does own VH1, however, they did not prior to the release of this video, and probably not for another year after it. I'll twist it how I want, and I hope it gets you so worked up, you angrily rub one out and fire off your future progeny into a Quizno's napkin, sparing the world from what would most likely be just as much of a cunt.

  • @drp Doesn't matter bitch. In my original post, I always said that this is when they cared about music, and now MTV doesn't play music, they play shot. Sorry pal, I can see now that you are troll and a loud mouthed cocksucker full of hot air. Nice try with your attempt at being clever, but you fail on every level as you revealed more about your pathetic self then you ever could at trying to put someone down. Take your bullshit elsewhere and go wack off to your justin bieber posters you bitch

  • @diamondcunt22 Actually, we're both revealing how pathetic we are, you more so than myself of course. Nothing like a couple of cunts arguing over nothing (we'll you're arguing with me, I was actually pretty calm). Also, loudmouthed?  You're the one I can easily picture standing over your sticky keyboard, yelling and throwing a tantrum, and erupting immediately into some ad hominem douchery. At the very least it was entertaining.

  • @drpeck104 I've met a million monkey lippin pseudointellectual punks just like you, and you're all the same. Big mouth, lots of hot fucking air. You come here attacking me because I made fun of your pathetic MTV for dumbed down failures that can't write songs worth a shit. Get off the fucking page you troll. You were just looking for attention when you came here. MTV sucks, bottom line, and what you think means nothing punk. No one care about your bullshit and your big mouth

  • @diamonddust22 Haha. Go back and read all the shit you've been spewing out. Also, please, go back and cite where I ever said MTV played good music. As a matter of fact, I've said the exact opposite, but, you're too far gone into your own world. You should read The No Asshole Rule by Robert Sutton, you may learn something about yourself. In the mean time, keep cracking that 40 year old, yet prepubescent voice, as you get yourself worked up stomping around your mom's basement.

  • @drpeck104 Go back and get the fuck off the page you fucking Troll boy. Mom jokes went out 10 years ago troll. The only reason you are here is because you live a useless and failed existence, and your parents don't love you and you have no friends because you are a loser. Get off the internet cock Roach

  • @diamonddust22 Once again, side stepping the facts and moving into cunt mode. You were telling me to work on my spelling, all the while your grammar and barb trading ability has been middle school level at best. No friends? Not even close. Troll? If that's what calling out a cunt is, then yes, absolutely, and you just keep proving how right I am every time you come back in here. Take a few hours to think of a reply. then, don't post it, because now you're just wasting both of our time.

  • @drpeck104 Once again you come here like a Troll with a big mouth. Get the fuck off the page if you have nothing to say you loser. Bottom line is MTV is garbage and so are you. I side step no facts. You've come here to pick a fight because you are a fat pig with no friends and your family looks at you like a shame and a disgrace. This video is when music was good, and now MTV today is shit. Get off the page Troll boy, the only reason you are here is to be a big mouthed pussy boy.

  • @diamonddust22 I bet the only time women approach you (if at all) is because they assume you are a really butch lesbian. Such resentment in you. Did your father ever step over your naked body to molest someone else?

  • @drpeck104 Yep thank you for proving me right. You are nothing but a troll with default responses and a useless and failed life. Go change your diapers coward boy. Only a sick idiot with mental issues would make child molesting references. I can tell you are just a fat ugly mutt in your room with no life as you desperately seek and search for attention anywhere you can get it.

  • @diamonddust22 Who said anything about children? That was you. Maybe I am on to something.

  • @drpeck104 I guess you don't read what you write, do you punk? You were refering to my father with suggestions that he molested someone. So next time read what you write bitch. the only thing you are onto, is the fact that you are a sick piece of shit pedophile

  • @diamonddust22 Not Clint Eastwood, saying Clint Eastwood like things. I like where this is going. Who are you going to start quoting next? Maybe Heston in Planet of the Apes, "@drpeck104 You are a damn dirty ape!" If you put as much effort into not being a total tool / douche / cunt that you do in being completely wrong, you might start to pull ahead. And don't tell me to go back and read what I wrote, you haven't been able to since you started this whole failure of an insult festival.

  • @drpeck104 Why you still talking? You're done!!! You've been revealed and exposed as a troll with no life seeking attention anyway you can. Move along little boy, it's getting old and no one cares about you or your bullshit. Time to move on you troll pedophile, and take your mental issues with you. I have no doubt you will be locked up and thrown in jail in your life, if you haven't been already. You're a fat pedophile and a clown in life that is failed. Move along Bozo

  • @diamonddust22 That big head of yours must have really stretched out your mom's cunt. The real question here is, why do you hate black people so much?

  • @Mangosunsplash Hey fuck Face, go troll and spam somewhere else you fucking lunatic. Is anyone talking to you, you stupid retard. You have so many capitals, exclamation marks, and question marks in your response, it seems you are so desperate for attention, even if it's negative. Go grow up you punk.

  • @Mangosunsplash You sound like you are insane. I mean you can't even string a sentence together without all your symbols, capitals, and bullshit. In fact I don't even know what the fuck your point is. You sound like a crazy mental case. You sound like a troll who is desperately seeking attention that it's pathetic.

  • @diamonddust22 Hey BRO' ....I'm hurtin' 4 U : seems you have major 'latent Hip Drag Queen'/Closet Fairy' tendencies. Such ascerbic,repressed,venemous ,judgements & opinions!

  • @Mangosunsplash Thank you for proving and exposing yourself as a mental patient. Not only do you have a homosexual fetish, you actually are not ready for a person who is confident and secure on all levels. Go back to you mental ward you ex-con. I have no doubt you've done jail time you loser. You have a 100% failure rate as a human being.

  • @Mangosunsplash

    no offence here...but your both acting like new born caddle.
