The thumbover is no longer considered a bad technique. It is the most natural position for playing guitar with string bending (try bending the strings with your thumb behind - it's unnatural)... Unless, you play a lot of John Stowell chords with 5 fret stretches.
Classical guitars have wider necks and also classical music involves a lot of chords with no string bending like in blues, so it makes sense to put your thumb behind the neck all the time.

Love your playing man! You catch the spirit of SRV but don't sound to much like a copy. Got to love the Fulltone stuff.

@gr8bluesgtr HAHA! Wish I was half as sloppy! haha x) If that's what you call this. Great blues as allways!
Great video. I really like the slight sloppiness(not kidding, I really do) Most people play to clean and sterile nowadays. No feeling to it. You got some great chops dude!

I did both the regular and MOSFET variety, although I only posted the video of the regular one. They are both in the OD Pedal Comparinator at OldToneZone (dot) com so you can compare them :)

Hey Anthony have you always played with your grip like (thumb over 1st) that or did you have to train yourself after playing for a while? That's probably the hardest thing I am facing trying to learn these technques...old (bad) habits die hard!

I started doing it because I saw Hendrix and Stevie doing it. It's not wrong to do it the other way, just harder :)
