Little Wing (SRV) Start to Finish.

Start to finsh one take.




I recorded this a few days ago and screwed up the ending so I figured I'd get it right (or at least close to right).

It's in the key of E not Eb because it's too much work to setup my guitar in that key (you have to reintonate and reset the springs on your tremolo).

Thanks for watching.

wait you have to intonate and change the springs in your strat when you tune down half a step?? does it really matter? do you have to?

[corneiid]

@FreaquedeMusique @FreaquedeMusique Yeah it matters. That's the trouble with a strat. If you change the gauge of strings or the tuning it throws everything out of whack. You'll notice with a floating bridge that when you change the tension of the strings it causes the bridge to rise of fall (so that it's not flush to the top of the guitar). The only solution is to adjust the tension of the springs and re-intonate. It's a pain.

@corneiid but is it reaaaall noticable for in my little room, as in switching between standard and half step down, and changing the low E string to D or C and stuff?

[corneiid]

@FreaquedeMusique. It depends. For years I didn't care, but as I got better it started to matter more. String tension affects the height of your strings and your tuning. If it's not bothering you don't worry about it.

Hey man, REALLY nice playing!

i'm beggining to play electric guitar, and i want to know...how long ago did you play the guitar?

Thanks and greetings from Argentina!

[corneiid]

@TheVitalimotion I've been playing for about 20 years, but that's not really a good measure of time spent. There were many months were I barely touched a guitar. I only started to improve about 5 years ago when I started playing consistently for an hour or two a day.

Yeah man Real Nice,

[austinduanejones]

very good. I wish you could play it in Eb. I'm working through this right now with the Hal Leonard book, I think that lick at 1:27, he uses his pinky, ring, mid, then index to make it sound right. Other than that, this video is the best I've seen. 3 thumbs up!

Best cover of this version of little wing I've ever seen. Flawless man

@FreaquedeMusique You rock - what are the odds of you throwing together a slow, step by step version of this. The tabs on the web don't really help much for beginners.
