is the guitar here the same as BB King's (335?)? I'd like to know, it sound great on through that Twin. My friend has a smaller body hollow guitar like the 335 (?) but just a little bigger than the Les Paul. I love it, just can't remember what it was.

@Robb9096 It's similar. Thanks.

What amp do you use here ? It sounds a bit like the Roger Waters Pros and Cons album Eric played on.

@powermichiel That video was with a 74 Fender Twin and an OCD pedal.

Hi John!

Thank you for the great lesson and specially pt2!!Your Explaination is clear and slow enough to follow it....

After I learn some licks of this video it was much easyer for me to cover songs of Eric Clapton!

Sorry for my English and a lot of greats from Germany ;))

@BluesEC84 Thanks! I'm glad the video helped.

@Robb9096 sounds like you mean the Gibson ES336, which is like a scaled down version of the 335, just a little larger than a Les Paul body-nice guitars, Jon Herrington of Steely Dan plays one

@rsdfender Dude no offense intended but if you cannot figure it out by ear maybe you should stop watching videos and considering the fact that music is much more about hearing or listening than watching "step-by-step guides to make this particular melody magically sound out from my guitar like whatever guitar god". I like Clapton and his style. But really, if you cannot take by ear some simple legato pentatonic pattern, you should reconsider what you're trying to learn and especially, How.

Hey John, just out of curiosity how is the sting height set up on es335 and sg?

@rsdfender This is pretty advanced stuff to get into the style of a world class guitar player. If you need to slow things down you are probably looking at stuff too advanced for you. You know it's right for your level if you can understand and play by the explanations given. You need to understand and hear what is being played and then play something in that style. If you want to play note by note you are on the wrong track.
