Little Wing Lesson SRV

[Xxbostonbruinsx]

nvm yours is a half tone to high

[Xxbostonbruinsx]

you guitar is a few tones to low

[MrCOLE1023]

I used to have a shitty Johnson acoustic! Best sounding acoustic I ever owned! Lol

[tiyfs]

Dude, thank you. Great lesson, this REALLY helped me

[AppleSauceInvasion]

Thanks man, your lesson really helped me a lot.

[redhatlook]

i am stuck at 3:50 please help

[redhatlook]

this is the first lesson from many, where is very good visible the fretboard and the fingers, so i see what to do... one video... thx

[maddkat420]

this is great!

keep it up sounds good,

thx for helping me learn srv licks!

[dougy12]

no-one should criticise this dude. There's enough guidance here to help you get this nailed, it's helped me loads. And if your so good why are you on here watching a lesson?. Maybe you should put your own version up and let us see. Pisses me off seein that. Anyway fella - nice work I say, sounds cool.

[CrazyForCooCooPuffs]

it takes a while but i learned how to pay this from THIS video......go look up the tabs and follow along with him....THEY HELP

[waliuxD]

nice lesson it really helps me thx man and keep rockin

[ThrowingStonesTV]

DUDE FUCKING EXPLAIN 6:11 - 6:52

[xxxxneoxxxx]

Oh thank you for your lesson, it was incredibly helpful. By the way, I think it's a bit too much reverb...

[SchecterShredder006]

dude, good lesson. i look at tabs for this all the time and just end up confused. but when you break every note down and have a great camera angle it really helps! now i know how to play my favorite song! thanks so much!

[JRmnz]

you lost me at 4:08

[RrVvEeNn]

6:32 WTF !!! O.O

[TheCrazzymikey]

@RrVvEeNn I agree 100%

[wacmac1]

Hey man Give the kid a break!!! he at least has the balls to go in front of the world--nervous, young, and just tryin his best-- if you can do better post a vid--i am rootin for the lad!

[nung1009]

FAIL..

[richardreload1]

GREeAT cover, great song, great teacher, very good job man, this is a beutifull song, tank you, sorry but my inglish is too bad :( . but you are great. tank you... (☼_☼)

[Riveraprod]

The camera angle was great. Thanks for doing this

[abramaiden]

What's wrong with this guy!!!)))===)(((((=???

[dfree08]

also, to everyone who comes here and critiques the lesson in the comments: if you already know how to play it so well, then why are you here?

[dfree08]

yo man thanks a lot. this was the most helpful tutorial i found on youtube. i'm pretty much a beginner. i don't really need to know how to play it exactly like hendrix or srv, so this was perfect.

[Kreykle]

Good job! Now I know the beginning of the song. I played it all wrong. Nicely done! No mistakes..... Looking forward to more SRV.....

[Luiginerd10]

THANK YOU FOR THE CAMERA ANGLE I CAN ACCTUALLY FOLLOW TO WHAT YOUR PLAYING!!!

[redceldan]

Excellent my friend... congrats ..>Red from Brazil

[thisispissnmeoff]

When you get to that sliding chord your not suppose to add that middle finger no way but I have to say this guy who gave this lesson has it down good good lesson too.

[MegaFenderdude]

no need to be shakey bro you rock that strat !!!!!!!!!!!

[TheMahagoni]

stevie'd be proud bro

[greatesc498]

helps alot

thx a ton

[ARGYROLO]

δικέ μου!!!

[stealth63]

thanks man! I used to see Stevie in Austin back in the day. It's fun to learn his style. Nice lesson & keep it up

[StevaManStevaMan]

thanks man, you are the greatest :-)

because of you mine fingers hurts me ;-)

[Sly6035]

im confused at 4:08!!! messageme back

[falcons1falcons]

@Sly6035 pretty much, you bar 5 and only hit the 5, then hammer onto the 7 keeping the bar open on the fifth fret, and strum that.

if that makes any sense.

[bulleto79]

Thanks!!! I really admire people like you that take the time to give something valuable and useful for everybody!!!!

[zaratejosecarlos]

the hand right is a stone xD

[rmerc79]

stone fingers

[ZeppelinFloydRoses]

You sound a little like Ray from Everybody loves Raymond

[elysium735]

@ZeppelinFloydRoses No he doesn't.

[CrazyForCooCooPuffs]

OKAY 3:53...gonna need help there

[CrazyForCooCooPuffs]

@CrazyForCooCooPuffs nvm i got it

[CrazyForCooCooPuffs]

Good lesson ill subscribe after im done....

[hipyaboyya]

dude !loosen up your right arm! its like a hydraulic ram!

[eklok5000]

its possible to play that on a western?

[TheJuliusJT]

thanks

[thefatmuff]

i actually like SRV`s version of little wing better then jimi hendrix`s. but the credit would go to jimi cuz he wrote it. and i like to sing along with jimi =) haha. great lesson btw! real good =)

[Emceetem]

Telecaster?

[klv400]

this is the best lesson i have seen on here for little wing. thanks a lot!!

[applecore2000]

Nice lesson. No need to be nervous! You have a natural way of explaining simply yet not dumbing it down. Would be interested in seeing other lessons you could put out.

[TheRep1ica]

Excellent teaching video, I hope to see the rest of the song shown and broke down in the same way. This is one of the best srv teaching vids ive come across. It makes a change to see someone talk you through it other than just playing the song with no indication on how to play it. cheers.

[TROIANDAMBER]

lmaaaaoooo!!

[sjoseph001]

Nice vid and lesson pal. Just right for beginners like me. Don't be put off by the negative comments and thumbs down. You're doing just great.

[CosmicRuna]

good job man

exactly what I need it a good slow breakdown of this masterpiece..

[svrbug5]

i get completely lost at about 6:24 in the lesson... i was wondering if someone could help me out

[umberto53]

sei un cretino

[tomasevic70]

god job man...

[BricksJamRoom]

I'm totally cool with this lesson. Keep it up.

[kevincarrrrrrrr]

you gotta be able to play at least remotely like stevie before you start giving out srv guitar lessons. too much fuzz, very choppy, and off beat. work on the strumming, especially the upstroke that stevie always uses. and before you guys start talking shit to me watch my videos first

[billbaroud91]

Haha, what you say is quite true, dude. But he doesnt say he is the best guitarist in the world does he ?... So I went to watch your vid. And I have to say it's not perfect as well. Good upstroke (too much ?) but your tempo is too slow and change... So try to be more cool maybe with comments. Bye.

[hockeyallthetime]

i completely agree.

[freebirdjoe]

great job,

[TL160]

good job you realy broke it down so it was easy to understand keep up the good work i learned alot your a good teacher.

[2Fast4U0921]

The notes were right, but too much fuzz, man! Clean it up a bit and you've got it spot on!

[adiddas9]

you need to play with a metronome, be more conscious of your wrists, elbows and shoulders (you're way to tense my friend!), strum-picks start in the shoulders, go through the elbows and manifest in the wrists, you need to relax your wrists!

takes guts to put yourself out there kid, for that I do congratulate you. I can tell you really like to play stevie's music and want to play just like him, keep it going, keep your head up and you'll get there! cheers

[JESSEGARON2]

congratulations!!! you´re a great guitar player and a great teacher...your video has a pretty clean angle of vision.

i love this song in steve´s way...

5 stars

[hansenmarek]

thnx alot m8, really helped me :)

[milandpb]

Good job for a lesson, good, you're made for those who understand what should be playing, not the ass who wants to speak to them where to put theirs fingers, cast exceptions!!

[shikavader]

good lesson dude THANKS MAN

[markfender123]

listen pal.. ignore these dicks thats saying this sucks. the only reason their saying this is because they cant play it. i also love this song. your the best ive seen so far explaining it. keep going

[ClaptonRules64]

Dude this sucks

[acdcrocker]

Thanks for "dumbing" it down.

[MrAlfredocolon]

this sounds nice. but your picking is just so tense and uncomfortable looking. loosen up a little and youll play alot better.

[goyneser1]

Good job!!

[wes8870]

Very nice work! thanks for posting this, it helps a bunch!

For all the shit talkers.. post your own vid if you can do/sound better.

[adrs2]

he's teaching himself, that's why it's called lesson xD

[indrazor1]

0:25 to 0:28 sounds so much like the original song!! Well done!!

[StevieRay1995]

Nice playing but the sound is not so good 4*.

[reysidas]

good shit bro

[guitarchaz]

Pretty close man keep it up but your your not ready to teach it yet and work on that tone!!

[sixstringintexas]

good job bro!

[Garlemgreen85]

how can u teach it if u cant even play it? and tune your guitar but otherwise 4.5/5

[krighafc]

lesson SRV???

[Answer4canceR]

fuck the hates. i thought it was amazing. now i can play part of my favorite song!

[boomboomfootball]

change your strings dude!!!

[EdogYank24]

terrible strumming

[autinspare]

really nice of you to take the time to do this. I'd be nervous too. Keep it up - look forward to seeing more of your videos. Being perfect isn't the point - getting out there and doing it like you are is what it is about. Cheers!

[tattooninja]

wow man yer voice and hand are shakin like a leaf...relax......other than that, pretty good.

[supernova7775]

I give you credit man cause at least you can play the song and most of these ppl are looking at your video for guidance and need help with this awesome song.

[johnnycaboosehead]

C'mon everyone !

Yeah the rhythm is off, and he's a little sloppy, but it's a pretty accurate breakdown.

As a player it's up to ME to get my rhythm and articulations down.

How good is TAB for teaching nuance and emotion ?!

It's a good lesson.

Just tune your guitar !

[ihaveaverybadcold]

@johnnycaboosehead yeah i have come to the conclusion that the people who dont like this video never probably tried to even learn this song because your right...his breakdown is dead on IMO...prolly the best lesson for this song on youtube

[johnnycaboosehead]

Tune your fucking guitar !!

Otherwise, not too bad.

[BullhornGuy]

C'mon dude...that was awful! You must learn to play BEFORE you can teach otherwise its just the blind leading the blind.

[tyron666]

have you ever heard about metronome? it is very useful to learn how to play with rythm...

[baadshah0001]

thanks mate- its useful coz u break it down note by note so easy to follow, even if its not an exact carbon copy of srv or jimi

[IgorGuittar]

horrible..no good...

[sugarmojo]

not tight and no rythm... you have to learn it before you teach it.

[fendercort90]

tab?

[coupedude]

I dont know which sound's worse? The sound's coming from your cheap s**t guitar or your stupid yankee voice. Dont post comments on my video's again you warmonger!!!!!!

[deadlycow42]

>I don't know which sounds worse, the sounds coming from your cheap shit guitar or your stupid yankee voice. Don't post comments on my videos again you warmongerer!

Fixed that for you.

[Carroll49]

Great lesson man. Ignore all the seagulls.

[16326]

nice teaching...thanx!

[lucthegreat1992]

man i gotta say thanks a bunch i have been playing guitar for 6 years and 4 of them have spent trying to learn that song just right and that really helped man thanks

[Hotsypat]

Hey Q94suck's HEAT YOUR HEART OUT....

[masterkudjo]

You can see he is still learning but at least he explains himself properly unlike allot of those fucking twats that go so fast you dont get it.

[yamicazie]

i know why theirs no sense of feel when he plays little wing. its because his picking hand is so stiff, you need to relax your picking hand for a good feel

[habreed]

hey man ... your a good teacher , right to the point , and done well slowing down ... but your timing was off , and there wasnt any feel there ... it will come in time ... keep up the good work , practice till your fingers fall off and you'll go a long way ... cheers ...

[jking4425]

brilliant - tone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is a guitarist's everything , easy to see why johnson , Van Halen and Hendrix are who they are -THNX for sharing !!!

[smigio111188]

I know little wing needs that clunky jimi sound ...buuutt yours was a little tooo clunky (in my opinion)...nevertheless good job

[otohangi]

Well done young man. Keep at it.The natural /feel will come. Study, practice.

[Mick6979]

Really nice job , it took me very little time to learn it thanks to your clear instruction , much appreciated

[ulakordek]

work hard, because to be guitarist you need 'only' hard work and to be in love in music ;)

[Ridge97]

good job..the people trashing wish they could play..Bastards...

[apocatie34]

i've been playing guitar for 6 years and to be honest im pretty good at it. So let me put it this way: this guy fucking sucks! i bet you dont even play and know nothing about guitar so stfu (trust me i can play it 10 times better, if you want i can make a video response ;)

[Ridge97]

put your fuckin money where your mouth is

[Lennon420]

tune to the words of Jose Marti, The best form of saying is doing.

p.s. he may not have the dexterity but from the sounds of it he's got the song spot on!

[B7aug5]

he ain't bad, but saying it's spot on... your ears are fooked up. That's like heading for the moon and winding up on mars. Nuances are missing. There are enough vids of Stevie doing this, that we don't have to watch amateurs.

[Lennon420]

k fair enough that it's not spot on, but come on, for an amateur it's not bad at all.

[B7aug5]

agreed.

[HDWMusic]

go on then u prick, make a vid response

[MrPapaStone]

@apocatie34 Lets see your tutorial on this song please!

[Tiemyshoebish]

Sounds trashy.. stop strumming so hard.

[Esrd1]

good job man ....dude fuck these haters u keep doin ur thing good job

[Gibsonalex]

man.. do it a little bit better, very hard to get what you are doing..

[Tiemyshoebish]

lmao

[CodyWC22]

That was a good lesson. i just needed a up close look of how its played and it will help me. Thanks man!. don't let the criticism get u down.

[cdhutila]

Keep up the good work young man , and dont let the neg.. and very rude coments

get you down.

[RzR946]

it's horrible!!

[thatdamnclown22]

damn fine

[IlProfessore1993]

you suck, horrible!

[kc9iux]

Fuck off, critic. The kid is not bad, pretty decent.

He's helped alot more than you have, with your do nothing ass. lol

[chungag]

hey thanks alot i appreciate you posting this vid your preety good just ease the effects =P

[rocker199326]

your picking is too hard and dramatic dude

[kozavelrysiek]

i think the same. chillout man ;]

[r2on]

Great lesson mate! Much easier than Jimi's version so this is good as a half step before trying the actual thing :D

Cheers!

[4fingersinge]

Yea the guy needs to ease up on the caffine maybe, but he certainly doesn't need to be abused by assholes. He's doin us a favor by posting a lesson. Lets be a little more appreciative out there.

[andriessen]

I don't like how you're hand shakes

[alkaw1]

asshole, guitar want to kill you

[ryguy98]

aww shaqson182 is just upset cuz he hasnt sucked dick in a while. great lesson man, sounded just like stevie

[shaqson182]

post a video of u playing it, so i can see how much u choke at guitar

[BobMartin1964]

Well done mate, enjoying attempting to play this beautiful tune that you play very well. Hopefully one day i will be able to do it justice. Thanks again.

Bob

[shaqson182]

u got the notes right u just cant play the guitar, dont mean to sound like a dush but ur bends and pull offs suck dick

[herbie747]

WTF is a 'duch'? Do you mean 'douche'?

[love2playguitar]

good playin....check mines out and comment.

[pedaphelps]

do you show how to do any other of SRV songs nice job

[kronnohs123]

you dont know nothing! you ae emo!

[jonsey44]

Thanx man that really helped. Bravo

[highalltimes]

this guy is the first guitarist ever to sound like duane From home movies . your voice is spot on bro

[arsenalfanforlife]

i am not as good as you have to be to play it the hendrix way.... i will settle with this

[jjtmmmm]

a little over played its supposed to be mellow

[xphoenixdownx]

pick hand technique is all wrong, you look kinda like a monkey playing. also, find better tone, you just sound wanky.

[buerm009]

He just uses his thumb for the low E. It's a fairley common technique,it worked for jimi the supposed number 1,so idk what you mean.

[xphoenixdownx]

i said pick hand, not fret hand technique. he doesnt have his hand anchored anywhere, it looks like he anchors his forearm up on the body and uses that as his axis and his hand just kinda flops. it's uncontrolled and just shows inproficiency.

[ColonelColostomy]

That's the recommended technique, retard, to NOT anchor your hand.

[xphoenixdownx]

recommended by who?

[jonboy7560]

hey, do you have the guitar tabs for this?

[kermitcintronsucks]

terrible

[jonboy7560]

ur a fag

[righturnonly]

Please don't take this personal. I am enjoying your little wing and learning. I don't understand why people talented and sharing as yourself, don't name the notes as they teach. For me once I now the position being used and the name of the note I find it to be easier and faster. A.Friend .........& admirer

[TheRatPack168]

The best Little Wing instruction I've ever seen!

[DraventhaNova]

yo,man your the shit your did a good lesson on a timeless song.thanks

[bobtakeuchi]

you made a so good video!! this really helped me out to play this song!!

[jonboy7560]

nice video, this really helped me out

5 stars

[hipyaboyya]

5 star lesson man , really informative

[CountrySingerWannabe]

im surprised I didn't run into this vid sooner its been up forever it looks. anyway good lesson man. thanks for posting

[1pLUs44]

In reply to my last comment, I got the tuning, just had a problem with the guitar, got another one, tuned it right, and it's working great.

Great lesson btw.

[1pLUs44]

Hey, what tuning do you have it in? The Key of Eb? or just Eb tuning? I can't seem to get it right on my guitar.

[ironmaiden11087]

this is jimi hendrix song

[Jamie23jamie23]

w0t d0es he say at 3:29? i wana get it perfect but i d0n't n0 w0t he says.

[Bleblu245]

Following that slide up to the 5th fret on the E string

[bulldog111111]

Dude...thanks...I'm new to the guitar and you made this intro easy to learn.

[Dread098]

dude, you're too tight, try loosen up

[marcofernandez2]

dude mucho thanks...

[dangeros65]

i think the tempo is off, not trying to hate cause you have some sweet skills. And personally I thank you for this video. Keep up the good work

[Fabyo222]

i want your sound

[Neverdii]

i wouldn't say this is a SRV lesson...your style is different...and the sound. the lesson is cool but saying SRV lesson is sorta misleading :P
