[popsicle67]

I wore this album out three times before cd's came out and wore out two of those.

[JohnJamesMaloney]

Awesome! You've got that strange voodoo mojo goin' on!!

I've wondered if Billy used a amped up eletro-acoustic or a really clean sounding Fender Telecaster or Esquire.

[DirtySteve232]

@JohnJamesMaloney hey thanks brother - yeah I've wondered 2 cuz his tone is remarkable on this. I even checked RnR Gearhead, but no dice. We'll have to ask him -

[88ripitup]

@JohnJamesMaloney ive seen billy play a gibson for tyhis song as well

[leirbagpeter]

Thanks Steve. I've been "getting by" on this one for 30 years. Finally, I get it. Peace.

[DirtySteve232]

@leirbagpeter right on brother

[damp1234567898765432]

Oh my god... it's so good, probably the best song on Degüllo, it's either this one or cheap sunglasses. Thanks for uploading it again Steve!

[DirtySteve232]

@damp1234567898765432 Everyone should own Deguello. and u got it brother -

[mul211]

Finally a cover on this song that has decent reverb and timing. Great!

[DirtySteve232]

@mul211 thanks alot man

[starsighter13]

Thanks so much for putting this up, excellent rendition of the original! Well done!!!

[DirtySteve232]

@starsighter13 sure brother and thank you!

[TheLowerider]

Steve! So glad this vid is back up. All your vids are good but love the ZZ stuff, Thanks again for this, helps my band pull off this song,(well, helps me do the song for sure) Hope to see you play live in LA one day.

[synthoify]

Thanks 4 letting me know they unblocked this upload.Hey this is great and I still love those slides!

[DirtySteve232]

@synthoify you got it man and thanks!

[synthoify]

Great job on this cover. Love those slides!!

[dragon1971ful]

sounds great

[jfleminator]

Good job!

[DirtySteve232]

Thanks brother - no, that's a '93 Ernie Ball Music Man EVH - the model that preceeded the Peavey Wolfgang.

[vernonlarge]

This sounds so good... That tone is wicked. Can anyone direct me to the correct tab for this tune? The Reverend plays this live in the same style as you. Those tabs on the main sites just ain't right.

[DirtySteve232]

@vernonlarge hey thanks brother - Yes tabs are all over the place but Billy doesn't deviate from A Minor Pentatonic too much here if that helps.

[NatSatFat]

Thats GOOD, do not knock yourself, truly outstanding

[DirtySteve232]

@NatSatFat Thank you!

[ShredTactix]

Tone was EXCELLENT!!

[DirtySteve232]

@ShredTactix thank you - I dialed in what I could, but there is a ways to go to get that legendary sound on the record here.

[idcniles]

Nice work....fun to watch and try to imitate

[Fishinstix]

Outstanding job man! After the Cmaj chord try a Bm chord followed by a low open E string note. I got that off of a Vanderbilly lesson and it sounds a little better. Thanks for the demo. Love old ZZ tunes.

[DirtySteve232]

@Fishinstix thanks man and thanks for the tip!

[Imjonesy]

Most excellent! What's up with the "32" on your guitar?

[Imjonesy]

Bitchin!

[MrBtrap]

Nice and clean work man great job, keep it up

[DirtySteve232]

@MrBtrap thank you brother

[197669666]

Saweet! Nice job

[MIchigan4x4]

hey where is the lesson??? I cant find one

[TheSlevaslava]

nice guitar man

simple and beautiful work

[DirtySteve232]

@TheSlevaslava thanks man

[MattyPS]

great but only one thing missing... let your beard grow! ^^

[TheLowerider]

Very Nice work Steve, sounded great. just forming my first jam group/garage band and this is one of the songs we've been working on. This video has helped me a lot on the lead, thank you!

[MehdiBlues]

Great Job, I really like it !

[wwllyywwmmppss]

A coil split Pearly Gates in the neck? .......I'm glad I found this, I'm thinking of putting a Pearly Gates and Custom Custom in one of my Wolfgangs with a split switch.....do you dig the gates split (it sound good here) is it good on the inbetween positions.........Thanx

[DirtySteve232]

@wwllyywwmmppss I'm using a coil split '57 reissue humbucker in the neck and it sounds pretty good in between positions. Haven't tried the PG yet. Keep me posted if/when you do it!

[stevevaiisnumber1]

Beautiful man! 

[cudabluesman]

One of my favorite ZZ songs, has such a great laidback groove. Great cover!

[lollo1991]

EBMM EVH right? :) nice! i have one EBMM Axis too :) good job BTW

[DirtySteve232]

@lollo1991 Yep! Good eyes! '93 EBMM EVH - and Thanks!

[deldine70]

Dirty Steve, we need to get together and do youtube cover! Beautiful tone. You really captured the mood of Billy Gibbons guitar style beautifully.

[PatrickCarrico]

your to bad ass steve!!!

[Elzozo]

Very very nice! All these covers are cool. You're very talented - I like the "apprent" ease and feel of it!

[DirtySteve232]

Thanks man! Yeah this is through a single coil - push/pull volume knob.

[svetbrat]

Man yours is fantastic! Realy great sound. It is actualy very authentic. The solo is note for note and the rest as well. You do play on the single coil...right! Rock on more ZZ top!
