To be really picky - I think he used the G and B ( fret 7 & 8) strings with ring finger pulling off from 9th fret of the G string and then onto 10th fret of the D string. Its the same notes, but using the E string gives a distinctly different sound to it, which I cant hear on his recording. I think thats exactly how Hendrix played this hammer-on/pull-off also.

Anthony, I saw a guy who played those "F" style thumb over top major chord with the free pinky, but he would cover/fret both the 4 and 5th strings with his ring finger, giving him a full barre with the ability to pinky embellish still available to him... you ever try this?

@tcinpa37 That makes my hand hurt just thinking about it :-)

Love the tone, Anthony. Could you tell us your amp, pedal, and guitar settings to go from the clean intro into this part and the next overdriven part?

[gr8bluesgtr]

@v2saatana I have the gear and settings for this lesson listed on the site.

pretty neet...I cant play a guitar to save my ass but I saw SRV live at least 25 times

Your a good player and you do some good Stevie impressions. I do think its sad that all these people are so worried about the way Stevie played every little last note. I think if Stevie was still alive he would have told you to do your own thing. He did, its why he sounded the way he did.
