    SRV was "shredding" rhythm guitar AND lead guitar at the same time. He was able to play both and magically everything he did was "greater than the sum of its parts". He was an amazing guitar wizard and there will never be another like him again.

    Stevie Ray Vaughan started playing the guitar when he was 7 years old. He never learned to read music. He's totally free-styling it up there; never played a song the same way twice. Arguably the greatest blues/blues rock guitarist of all time. He's in the Blues Hall of Fame and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Give it up for his band Double Trouble for laying down the groove; allowed Stevie to do whatever he wanted to out front.

    I love watching these reactions! I was lucky enough to see him live five different times, it is hard to truly describe the experience. I was a young guitar player and he was my hero. I even got to meet him after a show in 1989. I was honestly a little scared to meet him, I was thinking, what if in real life he is an asshole? It would have destroyed my image of him. I waited by his tour bus for a good couple of hours and he finally came out, all by himself, no entourage or anything, shook my hand with a grip that actually hurt, put his arm around me like I was his kid brother and asked me " how did I sound tonight?" It was a sincere question, not like, I'm Stevie Ray. I know how I sounded, I just wanted to hear it from you. He was genuinely one of the nicest people I have ever met. The day he died I cried

      Fun fact, that crushing grip you experienced checks out. SRV was notorious for his preference for absolutely, monstrously thick string gauges. So compared to typical players the man might as well be pulling off and bending some steel aircraft cabling. Contributing to that gooner grip.

    B. B. King Quotes. “I've said that playing the blues is like having to be black twice. Stevie Ray Vaughan missed on both counts, but I never noticed.” He played with such thick strings he would rip the tips of his fingers and would super glue them back. God given talent!

    Stevie was and is your favorite guitarist’s favorite guitar player. He was a master musician whom was regarded by the best blues players of his time to be the best they ever heard. Stevie’s mentor and greatest influence was the great Albert King. Stevie also deeply respected and admired Jimmy Hendrix.

      Correct, also called Tremolo and Vibrato although it is not a tremolo, that's a different effect. Edit: might as well say what it does. You can alter the pitch with this thing. You can loosen (and with some versions also tighten) the tension on the strings which results in pitch changes. When you pull the strings tighter the pitch goes up, if you give them a bit more slack it goes down.

Or at least know how to work within the confines of what they know. You don’t have to be a Steve Vai or an Eric Johnson to be a great guitar player. Although it helps.

He wasn't able to read music. But he taught himself how to play. Stevie loved Jimi Hendrix & Voodoo Chile was one of his songs. Texas Flood, Life by the Drop, If the House is a Rockin', Mary had a Lil' Lamb, Pride & Joy.
    Stevie put his heart & soul into his music! That's why you feel it like you do. He makes you feel it & you can't help but start moving.
    So glad you liked it & please keep listening! Take Care & God Bless!!!
    Oh, and by the way the little silver stick thing on the guitar is called a whammy bar. When you're playing it allows you to vary the sound of the strings as your playing by loosening the tightness on the strings & then releasing it allows the strings to tighten up again. When you're as talented as SRV was..... you can make that guitar sing as you walk it on out there & put you're foot it!
