wtf are you talking about flyingfreak67??? dont diss on this kid. Thats more soul then anyone iv seen that age ever have. I know forty year old men who couldnt hold a candle to this kid. What is he like 13??? i bet you werent that good when you were that age. dont listen to that dude kid. You got a future right there in your hands man. Keep it real
not the best technique in terms of picking or vibrato but you play hard and you play well. There's a sweet bluesy character throughout and its awesome. If you were playing that through a nicer amp it would sound amazing.
Wow, that was pretty good. However it is missing soul that the origional had (This is NOT an insult to you, Stevie was the best guitarist ever and I'd be suprised if anyone can ever sound that good.) Anyway, great cover!
watch his other vids and you will see he also plays a gibson sg just like his name says i would also play a strat for this song because thats what stevie ray vaughn plays
A bit more aggression would be welcome well a lot more. Nice tone not quite gritty enough for Stevie. Cool improv. That whole song is mainly one big solo anyway Good job man.
stevie didnt use 13's for very long. For the most part of his career he used 12's, then after his rehab stage and late career he went down on size to 11's i think.
Very nice playing. Lovely SRV riffs there & a nice Strat. Re the two 'sliding' chords in the very opening riff try this instead - it's actually just a minor triad (or an aug5thsus4th if you use its jazz name!) used in both jazz & blues. Take an open D7 shape & move it 'up' to the 4th,3rd, & 2nd frets - sllide it from the 3rd to the 5th fret position after the riff; ditto in 8th to 10th fret (based on half-tone drop tuning). Hope this helps. Best, Rich
Great job diggin in for that bend with your index finger at :44 seconds. Man that will really tear up your fingers, but you went for the gold there! Great job :)
Man, I thought I was a good guitarist till I tried this song, people think this stuff is easy, but let me see you get all these little bends and stuff just right its tough!!
Wow. That was awesome. I wish I could play it half as good as you. Keep at it man and post more of those SRV covers if you got them. I need all the help I can get :(
pretty good dude, you played the part that stevie plays really well, but the song is all about improvisation, you have to break out own your own licks more often than not. still really well done, though. from a fellow guitarist
I ADORE Stevie Ray Vaughn and this is the BEST cover ive seen done. My little brother can't even do it and he's awesome. KUDOS AND WHATEVER i'll throw my bra at you you rock man. kick ass.
Great Guitar playing but i think anyone will agree that There is no such thing as a Stevie ray cover doesnt matter who plays it There is no better sight in the world than seeing stevie standing there sweating his ass off bending to a ridiculous note that shouldnt even be possible, there is no better ever than SRV. No disrespect though you sounded very good and its a tough song
there are another improvisation by a great young singer his name is YOUVA, ......
