  • Nice man! Maybe also check out my version of little wing :)

    peace

  • This is my first comment on youtube after being a daily user for 5 years or so. Just felt like saying this is one of the most awe-inspiring videos I've watched on here, Must have taken a *lot* of time to get everything down just like SRV, and it's obviously well worth it.

  • Great! Very good!

  • Amazing man

  • 34 idiot in the world!!! great!!! can you record a video lesson for little wing? thanks!!!!! in 10-12 part! please!!!!!!!!

  • way to rape that guitar man. damn good job!

  • any one who plays guitar can clearly tell he isnt faking it

  • I can tell that he can play the song... however, he recorded it himself then dubbed the video over it... kinda like foley in the movies. I can tell because the harmonics at the 12th fret around 4:40 are manipulated by the whammy bar (in the audio)... not in the video

  • Dude, amazing rendition.  Even the tone is spot-on. What's your gear, especially distortion?

  • holy crap.. man, you make stevie so fucking proud!

  • breathtaking!!!!

  • There is I did not hear the dive in 4:37. Its his own playing. So i conclude that this guyis for real

  • you my friend, are fucking great. never put down the guitar man. its a way of life!

  • Up until 2:40 I bought it, but when it got distorted..mabye it was delayed between his playing and the actual music I heard

  • @bigsmedly Fuck you! You don't know anything about music if you think it's fake!

  • WOW, that's incredible!!! Awesome playing, mate, keep it up!

  • To copy this music like this, it takes year or years.I know its very hard. well done.

    i can read him about respects SRV so so much in this video.

    vibratos are good, good rythme and best thing is he perfectly understands this song.

    Like classical players copying notes exactly same for their respects, he tried to copy SRV style, vibrato, rythme and whole music, but just not The Perfect. IT'S HIS OWN SOUND. well done again.

  • i know that you are playing,SRV never use reverb that much....

  • Anyone who actually knows how to play the guitar can tell this guy is playing for real. If you cant tell if he is playing or maybe you're not sure.....then you obviously cannot play, so shut the fuck up.

  • KILLER TONE! What amp are you using? Sounds like a hotrod deluxe

  • if you listen to this closely to the part between 2:55 and 3:00, you can hear that drivels pickups have more twang to them then SRV's its the same at 3:35. You got my belief mate.

  • Wow, anyone that says its fake is retarded. Theres obvious parts that aren't the same as the original, and it seems the A string is out of tune a bit. And near the middle theres more distortion than on the recording. I know through my youtube guitar videos that they get outta sync over the years and through youtube's changes. This guy's playing this, SRV is NOT in this video. I swear, people are dumb and don't notice tiny and important parts in music when they listen. Good job though, man.

  • I believe you're really playing that since the guitar doesnt sounds like the drum, it sounds more live, and plus the note you play fits with the emplacement of your fingers, i do believe youre playing this

  • what are your amp settings? sounds really good

  • Hey what happened to that dip at 4:40?

  • honestly if hes faking it he might as well be playing it because his fingers are on all the right notes. and you can clearly hear a few parts where he makes mistakes where the backing track doesnt. hes not faking it hes just good.

  • by far my favorite song by SRV makes me think of my little girl everytime i listen to it

  • Just great.

  • I see why you put a comment in the begining of this video. Why does the sound come after the playing and sometimes before? The tabs are correct dough, i've got the same ones from guitarpro so there is no reason to believe that you're faking. Nice playing by the way.

  • Your website doesn't exist.

  • NICE!!!!!!!

  • Dude relax, F'em if someone doesn't think your playing.....Its between you and the the axe, and makin sweet love to those frets. Let it be your little secret, most don't understand what happens between you the music and

    and ole SRV.....Just have fun .....RIPSRV we hardly knew yee

  • fuckin amazing. but ugly guitar tho. lol.

  • hanef bro, gatong gato mo.......

  • its quite obvious ur playing and playin DAMN GOOD ..keep it up man

  • Your mom told me you really nailed this song and I would have to agree!

  • High reverb? The one on the recording is very much like that of an abyss. :P

  • Dude, that rocked! It took me ages to get that down.. I would love to hear some of your own stuff, Have you got any uploaded that i could check out? 5 stars!

  • That was fantastic.

  • Excellent

  • that tone is just perfect.

  • I'm impressed how accurate you are. Fantastic!

  • Fantastic so Stevie Ray never really died..

  • this has got to be the best cover of this song ive ever seen or heard. GREAT job dude. seriously awsome. 10/5 stars

  • awesomeness...

  • can i get the tabs please? i only know how to play some of the intro

  • orgasumrific :)billion stars xD

  • PS . I hate that strat. :D:D

  • I think it'd look perfect with a rosewood board but its still a beauty lol

  • Man this is seriously close to SRV.Fuck u man, u r goood i mean very good :).A thin line to perfection.Keep working, maybe some day gonna meet u, otherwise see you out from youtube.

  • you're SRV Jr man!

  • very good

  • very very good!

  • ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. This is my all time favorite song and you did it justice without a doubt. Seriously, keep up the amazing music! (:

  • Holy shitt!! Perfect man! :D and I like your guitar.

  • FINALLY someone that can actually play this song

  • whats with the if you dont believe me check this shit? any true guitar player can watch the notes your fretting and realize you are for real. the only thing i can say negative is that you deserve to step up on the axe. it fell a little out of tune. try one with a floyd or if possible a kahler tremolo. if your game get a bc rich. the new gunslinger is bad ass if you want the strat style

  • nahh for stevie you do not want a bc rich. Plus that strat the he has is nice. I believe it is an american deluxe? Anyways if you must upgrade, for stevie type stuff you cant go wrong with another strat maybe a custom shop?

  • @turbolite81 i think the idea is to have a real strat. plus the real strats always come a tiny bit out of tune when using the trem.

  • tab please

  • LOL. Are you serious?

  • awesome!

  • I had to learn this song and make a vid after i watched this.thank you. awesome playing and great tone!

  • Comment removed

  • Congratulations, Have you the original tab of this version? Can You send me it? Thank you so much and good luck.

  • WOOOW

    You're so good men !

    Awesome cover, i love it !

  • Karl has been working his ass off on guitar since he was 15 years old. My father had him practice AT LEAST 3 hours everyday.

    If you think this is fake, you're on something. Go watch Karl's other videos and you'll see that he's a freaking GOD on the guitar.

  • He's not faking you fucking idiots

  • Drive 101- The video is slightly out of sync-- but don't be insulted by those who would say it's fake--it's a compliment---they just can't believe you are as good as you obviously are!

  • amazing job!!!!!!!!!!

  • Way cool playing, and it is live as far as I can tell. Video seems to slow a little all the way through though the sound is not slowing, but if it was fake, you'd simply catch up during the easy stuff. A very acomplished player for sure, I can't even get close to that.

  • I'm not sure, but something just doesn't seem true. At first I believed he was playing it but after watching it a couple times I'm starting to doubt it.

  • just keep watching....maybe you will figure it out. Also listen to his club videos if you think he is a talent hack.

  • Yeah after I posted that I did go watch some of his other videos like the instructional one he posted which led me to believe that this is real. It just seems like a shitty recording and he really should post something that doesn't have a lapse like this does.

  • even if it's not real this guy does a hell of a job making it look like he's actually playing...he might as well be playing it....

  • Oh it's real playing, his fingers are not doing the Milli Vanilli....You are correct that if he was that good at faking it he might as well be playing it because he actually is playing it note for note with his very own fingers. I don't care if the people that doubt him HATE me. I have nothing to PROVE. People that really know music are what matters to me and they will KNOW he is playing it yoo. To hell with the rest because you DON'T MATTER to me UNLESS you recognise this is authentic jam.

  • I'd say it's ALL YOU mixed nicely with that boombox playing the backing track. It sounds authentic though and looks to be synched up quite well with the video. If you could fake it that good my hat would still be off to you BUT you aint a fakin it as far as this old pair of eyes can tell. The blowing on the fingers at 4:39 was a nice touch (pun intended). 5/5 Stars!

  • Guess all you naysayers don't realize that some videos get out of sync with audio when they are uploaded to YouTube.

  • not sure about it bud, awesome song but just a bit dubious

  • FYI I learned this song in part by using your video. Great take on the song.

  • your volume should be more up than the actual song...i could barely hear you play

  • ..... that's actually him playing. not the song. he only used the backing track...

    a backing track is only the accompanying instruments like the bass and the drums.

  • Pls check at 4.40.time bar .there is a whammy dip sounding but this joker just fiddling on his fretb,,,

  • Yeah so blatant dude. This guy needs to remove the vid to avoid embarrassing himself further.

  • see what I posted in reply to yarseftgd, it applies to YOU too, ricky6565.

  • He's 100% not playing for sure and there's no sync problems, he's just playing along to Stevie and is behind. This can be proven at the 4:40 mark where there is clearly a whammy dip and he doesn't touch his whammy bar at all.

    Anybody who believes this guy is really playing has been duped.

  • ROFLMAO, you really are a dumb putz. That was no Whammy Dive indeed, that is called a wah wah or expression pedal. Look again fucknut and you will see his leg move while he expresses himself nicely with his pedal. You are amazing in your ignorance!

  • Okay,,we are damn ignorant,,,honestly,,can u pls post a video,, how this is done,, im curious to know

  • And anyone who would believe you is REALLY the one who has been duped, ricky6565, lol...

  • Instead of getting defensive and abusive, show us some proof he's really playing. You can't see his foot touch a pedal at 4:40. In fact neither of his legs even move! It's definitely not wha wha either. I'm an experienced player dude and thats a whammy dive and he doesn't touch his whammy bar at all. The guy's not playing. End of discussion.

  • YOU ARE BLIND, period, Ricky. It is not about "getting defensive and abusive". I did not need to defend him, I just needed to point out what an IDIOT you are. Nobody needs to "prove" shit to you jack because you are such an ass you would'nt accept the TRUTH if it kicked your teeth out.

  • The fact that you've resorted to abusive language just shows how immature you are and that you've lost the arguement dude.

  • Your opinion. But then I already let you know what I think of you so have a nice day :-)

  • Well quinoacat thanx for block me on the reply,,This shows u are afraid to take others comment Now we know how is this whammy thing is done,,can u pls post a video,,how this is done cos you talk like a pro,,

  • You earned a block, yarseftgd. You should try comedy because you make me laugh. I am SO VERY afraid of you, ha!

    I do not welcome you to comment on any content I post and reserve my right to keep you out of my channel because you are a waste of time and bandwidth with no sense of anything that matters to me. You are a whiney piece of crap that can't graciously accept that your SHIT STINKS and I aint into smelling your SHIT anywhere around me.

  • Just admit u dont know fuck about music,,Enough of talking,,

  • ROFL, yeah sure, whatever you say. I know nothing about music even though I have 8300 friends on MySpace, most of which would disagree with the likes of you.

  • I know there is no changing your mind since you are 100% sure on this - but just PLEASE watch the video of me playing the song without a backing. I'll send it to you if you think it's too much work (in my opinion, it's more work getting worked up and arguing on something so trivial)

  • I've seen your other videos and you do a commendable job of the song but this vid is just deceptive and I disrespect you for that. If it truly is out of sync, and i doubt it is, how about uploading a synced version to disprove it.

  • Well I'm sorry you feel that way. I uploaded the video years ago - If I can manage to find the old video I'll upload it - just for you.

  • ricky6565 = troll

  • Thoughtful and considered response there. Look, if he really is playing, why can't he upload a synced version to dispel the doubts once and for all.

  • And why don't you upload something better? Get a life man and stop being a hater.

  • @ricky6565 are u really that jealous? dude video syncing is hard work. leave his playing alone. and yea i said playing cause he is. how can i tell? well simple...it sounds like his tone and style. come man be kind here.

  • @ricky6565

    Ahahahaaha. I'm 99% sure you're a troll but anyways this is to hilarious for me to ignore. You're actually saying that this guy learned the whole song, using a nice technique and everything but instead of playing it, he turned off the amp and just played along a guitar track. You do realise that that is harder since that requires an extremely sensitive timing.

    Well as for the actuall video, I really liked your playing, I think it would have made both Hendrix and Vaughan proud :)

  • Comment removed

  • @Arnimate "Ahahahaaha. I'm 99% sure you're a troll but anyways this is to hilarious for me to ignore." What's hilarious is that you actually think this guy is playing. You obviously didn't read my initial comments or you would clearly tell he's not playing. Go to 4:35, there is a whammy bar dive and he doesn't go anywhere near his whammy. That's conclusive 100% proof he's not playing. The audio is exactly the same as Stevie's studio version for goodness sake. He's really duped you well.

  • @ricky6565 Even if he did play it fake, he couldn't hav just go thru de whole process of learning where to place his fingerings on the guitar frets in order to make it look real.

  • @ricky6565 i agree. no doubt.

  • @ricky6565 dude no they haven't he's accually playin. he's just playin to the accual song so u can hear stevie do the dip but he doesn't comeon use ur head man. and ur ears. don't jump to conclustions. good job man. better than what i could probably do.

  • Your PC is obviously fucked up, yarseftgd. If your PC (no matter how 'nice' it is) is glitched at the time you watched this or it is a slow dog of a box with a shitty video card, then you would see what you claim but it does not reflect the actual playing I see at that point in the video. YOU ARE DEAD WRONG in your ASSumption, buddy boy.

  • dude SRV reincarnated,damn man I can't even do that so perfect and I play this for like 3 years..Good job man it's realy nice.

  • Awesome! One of my fav SRV songs and you do great respect to him with your version. Seen some of your other playing and you are truly gifted. Looking forward to what the future will bring you. Keep on rockin and don't listen to the jealous ones. You've got talent!

  • It says in the title its a SRV rendition you bellend.

  • Comment removed

  • best

    dude

    this awesome

    have you considered being a offcial musician

    you should this is awesome

  • Nice guitar =D

  • you're definitely NOT playing.... you just happen to know the correct frets, bends, timing, and strings to play =] great cover man!

  • Comment removed

  • Best cover on youtube for sure..

  • Wow...with my eyes closed i cant differentiate ur playing with SRV,,,GOOD JOB DUDE,,,U gonna be great,,,Keeping rocking

  • Yeah thats because hes not really playing this. If you watch and listen closely you can see that he's just pretending to play while SRV's rendition is played in the background. The guy is such a sad deceitful talentless moron. Pathetic.

  • Yeaaah, Are other people really just not paying attention? He fucks up so much its obvious its not him playing... especially on whammy parts... What a fucking idiot

  • awesome dude just keep going ! 5 stars

  • Could you PM me your setup?

  • Incredible!!! You may be the best young guitarist ive seen in a long time, since Ian Moore, you have made srv proud im sure!!!

  • really amazing!!

  • man, that was fantastic!! keep on rockin'..

  • oh man. that is fucking awesum. well done

    that deserves like i897239874578579348 stars. that was insane

  • i bet stevie would've enjoyed that

  • Goosebumps! I converted a non-hendrix or SRV listener, to a true believer with this clip. Top shelf stuff. 5 Stars

  • that`s the feeling!

    How long have you been playing this song?

    5 stars

  • the best cover of little wing that I've seen,

    and I've been looking.... Just great!

    5 stars....I wish I could give you 6 or 7!

  • Or more

  • wow...amazing, great job mate.

  • Really good! And nice guitar also! Waiting for more...

  • Comment removed

  • Very well done!! 5 stars!!

  • perfect

  • It's because the guitar's black. The cord just blends in. If you look really closely, it's there.

    and btw, you do a really good job. I'm trying to learn the song, and I'm really impressed

  • Amazing job! But tbh it does look like its not plugged in. I saw your proff thought and think your a great player. Just why does it look like the guitars not plugged in?

  • i can see the cable cant you?

  • Note by note.. THIS IS SO FUCKING SICK!!

    PURE GENIOUS!

    Congratulations!

  • Love the guitar love the cover. Nice job. 5*

  • I am impressed. Ive been trying to learn this for a few weeks and i am about halfway, but note for note i think you got it down. you piss me off.

  • great job man, thats one of my favourite songs of all time and ur one of the few to do it any justice

  • annoying shade :\ destroying your good cover tho...

  • Wow! Excellent! Only problem I see is with the Vibrato. The vibrato is a little nervous

  • This version is fuckin' awsome. I do prefer SRV's version than the hendrix's one.

    Congratulations, it's very alike. Not just the playing but the sound is ver simillar too.

  • Is that a Protone Squire?

  • you captured it fuckn A dude awesome

  • why do u write : if u dont think i am playin ??

    who did say something u wouldnt play ? hahaha

    stupid dumbasses:-) everyone who ever played one single tone on a guitar can see that u can play that hot shit :-D

    dont care about the haters...u play awesome dude

    keep it up

  • fucking sweet.

  • I remember commenting on this video like 2 years ago, and it's still amazing. Awesome job, dude.

  • jesus christ man, you have everything down to stevie's ass hair. Phenomenal cover.

  • 太牛B了

  • Hey...very good...look my Little Wing version...the new..."Stevie Ray Vaughan Little Wing"....

  • nicely done

  • hey its me again, the one who shouted at some1 who called something nasty

    i had to come back i cant help not listening to it!

  • Hey, would have loved to hear this without the original playing in the background cuz i can hear stevie coming through especially the end!!

  • You must have put so much work into this...

    Amazing

  • You have no idea how much he practiced. My father had him play guitar for hours, pretty much everyday. This isn't just memorization though, this is soul and genius.

  • what pickups are you using? are they tex-mexs?

  • I'd guess Texas Specials.

  • OOhh. I could listen to that all day. Incredible work, keep it up!

  • wouw, awesome

  • Holy fucking shit! Stevie re-born! Are you using 13's to get that tone?

  • u rock, rip srv, thx 4 the rendition.

  • Damn, STV would have been proud of you! :D

  • can i give it 10 stars? Amazing!

  • AMAZING!!!!!!

  • jesus fucking christ! Holy Fuckin Shit!

    Nasty. I'm just gonna put my guitar down and go to bed.

  • BRAVOOOOO

  • This is one of the best ive seen on youtube, nice playing!
