Lightnin' Hopkins Blues in E - "Three Times Lightnin'" - TAB available

Instrumental in the style of Lightnin' Hopkins.

I recorded the same instrumental three times on different guitars :

1- Gréven LOOv, a copy of a 1934 Gibson L00 mahogany and ladderbraced 2 week old D'Addario strings, no thumbpick

2- 1920ies Supertone probably birch and ladderbraced These guitars, although cheap in their days, were handmade by Italian craftsmen for Sears and Roebuck Old strings and thumbpick

3- Daddy-Mojo cigar box guitar (Stovepipe model - really, I had nothing to do with it ;-) This is how Lightnin' sounded in the late 40ies, a raw electric sound

theres a part that sounds like skip james in some of the earlier recordings, i dont know if daddy agrees with me but thats just my thoughts

@Miguelz1989

could be, but it's certainly unintentionally

all those bluesmasters borrowed ideas and licks from eachother, even playing in different keys, so we're bound to hear things we heard before :-)
