I had the pleasure of seeing SVR in concert 2 or 3 times, often within feet of him. He was certainly an incredible guitar player. Thanks for the video.
He's decent, but he's missing all the bass notes - Stevie would drape his thumb over the neck, and hit the E on the 12th fret of string 6 while playing the top riff at about 30 seconds in. It's close, but no cigar bud. The B7 on your Pride and Joy btw, same deal...F# in the bass on that chord, 2nd fret on low E.
Anyone that doesn't appreciate the time and talent it takes to play like this is a moron,and probaly sucks at guitar. To those people I say this, give up the guitar and play something your mentally suited for.....like the cowbell.
Well stated sir! I'm sure all these negative comments come from people who have red palms and buck teeth, and didn't get them from playing guitar....Oh Rosie....
@drywaldo This man certainly has learned the solo and shows decent technique. My only argument with you is that...........this song needs "More Cowbell."
No more disparaging remarks about playing the cowbell, please.
@shiftykilla I appoligize if I have offended.You are correct every band needs more cowbell.You dont have to be bovine(cow) to appreciate the fine tonal qualities of a cowbell........
LOL...totally agree. He is 'performing' this tune as a demonstration. Hopefully, you'll be inspired and go to his web site. This guy can flat out play...he hits all the notes, solid.
You are laughable at best. Ummm,,what about all the guys that SRV copied from, learned from and eventually developed his own style from. Do some GOOGLE research on it perhaps. hahaha..
I found the whole thing tiresome. What's the point of playing something that was improvised note perfect? I couldn't be bothered - what about the blues? SRV would cringe
There is no effect to cause the warble people are commenting about. He's playing over the studio track and hitting the exact same notes but his time is a millisecond off and it gives a little warble.
There is no octavia type of effect. He's playing along to the studio track and not quite hitting the notes at the same time as the recording. As a result you are hearing what sounds like real crummy chorus.
sorry but even though the notes are close; it is a poor example of people trying to copy Stevie.....listen to your version and his, you may see the error of your ways......try a different key.....
he is in the right key because if you don't know SRV tune is have tone lower (Eb)thats whay may be it dosen't match with you guitar tone and you think he is wrong but he is not
scackley, you're a serious douchbag. It's always the guys who make comments like that who are the worst guitar players and understand the least about music.
@corneiid who uses the word scackley as an adverb? and if im mistaking, im sorry, but i have never heard that word in my life, if ur not going to give good feed back about this video, then.....shut up.
He dont have Steve fingers, he should use thicker strings and hit strings more powerfull not like an old lady. But hes playing is very well i cant play so well so greets!
Hey guys! Wich tune is this song played in? And if you know, could u then make a video where you tune it to the right tune and send it to me? Please would be really nice.
I think when you figure out each phrase, you just become very familiar with the timing as well. Also, maybe it helps that I always paid attention to timing / rhythm relations. In general, this means tapping out the quarter notes while analyzing how the overlying notes fit in. I know what you mean about this solo. There are some triplet overlays for example, so you have to be familiar with triplet rhythms.
Nice vibrato!

"Mary had a Little Lamb" is an old Buddy Guy tune, and it's played in the key of E.
Make sure to tune your guitar down a half-step to E flat, because Stevie Ray Vaughan did NOT play at so-called "concert pitch".
By the way, Jimi Hendrix tuned his guitar down a half-step (to E flat, that is), as well.
I hope this helps.
