The late great Stevie Ray Vaughan is and has been my favourite guitarist for around 25 years, his feel and soul are undisputed and whenever I think I'm happy with my guitar progression, I kick back and listen to SRV and it brings me straight back down to earth. That pedal is awesome very close to stevie's tone.
I actually think Stang's Swang is the hardest song on Couldn't Stand the Weather. Couldn't Stand the Weather is one of my favorite Stevie songs to play and I totally agree that the main riff is really hard. The solo is incredibly fun to play though. Couldn't Stand the Weather is my favorite SRV album and I've also got a Texan Twang and I LOVE it and HIGHLY recommend it. It sounds straight up evil with my AC30 and Fiesta Red Custom Shop Strat!
From playing In a band that plays a lot of Albert King & Stevie stuff id say the most important thing is volume. That sound requires a lot of air to be pushed by the speakers. there’s something magical that happens when the tubes are really pushed & how they interact with the output transformer & pre amp section. Of course I use a 100 watt Two Rock so I know that helps a lot tone wise. But honestly you can get a damn good tone with a reissue Fender amp or blackface inspired amp
@@jimkostan9932 "This guy" aka Ross... his lessons are pretty much as good as it gets. If there's better you better prove it lol. He can play anything from SRV to Mateus pretty God damn accurately. Don't be a dick
Been covering this song for years. I've never played it exactly like SRV (who can, really?) but this has gotten me a little bit closer. Thanks brotha. ;)
Great Content and Playing Ross, Thank You Agreed about this SRV song (Couldn't Stad the Weather). And while having the skill-set and knowledge to play a piece like this what is perhaps most overlooked are the original Artist's small inflections throughout the piece. Unlock those small details for any Artist's piece you're playing is the real secret to making it sound authentic. (IMHO) And of course you are nailing it with this SRV selection.
Thanks for "teaching" so well that a non-musician can follow along and appreciate the skill-set & artistry. I can't play guitar, so having you slow it down and demonstrate was fascinating! Excellent presentation, well done!
Dude Ross, you did our late great SRV some serious justice here and re inspired me. Phenomenal job on outlining every detail on his technique in this riff. After 30yrs of playing I honestly never really realized how intricate this riff was. Thx
Haven’t been on your channel in a while. Had forgotten how good you were. Also just discovered you lived on Orkney! That’s where my dad lived for years.
I see finger on the mend. My daddy would never let me use a saw to help him he knew I loved a guitar. I only dreamed of being as good as you. Let this be a lesson in life your hands are now your living. Great video.
Very great!!!! What is your funny two-tone pick please ? Continue your vidéos because you are a model for my son and me! Thank you very much from France 😀
Ross, I'd love to see you tackle SRV's solo from "Baboom/Mama Said" from the Vaughan Brothers album 'Family Style'. I think that solo shows the direction that Stevie's technique/writing was taking him in before his tragic death.
Ross, cracking effort on this tune (like always), and you showed me a few things i have been faking for a couple of decades on this tune. Quick Q, do you have any vids where you go through any of your HX Stomp presets. I’m quite new to the HX stomp and still working out how to dial in some of these core tones and would love to see how you approach it.
That's Funny because Couldn't Stand the WEATHER is a difficult song to get down. I got the SRV INSTRUCTIONAL in 90s the on VIDEO THEN,(DVD) still got it. I LEARNED this about 25 YEARS AGO. I AGREE ABOUT WHAT YOUR SAYING. GOOD LUCK INTERMEDIATE PLAYERS: GET THE VIDEO. Its ON DVD.
I'll never be able to play this in a million years, but thanks for the great tutorial! EDIT: I thought this was going to basically be a commercial for that pedal with some sweet SRV thrown in, but that pedal sounds fantastic.
Over a blues? Always aiming to resolve to 3rd's for the most part. The more comfortable you get doing so, the less thinking it requires and the more it just starts to naturally happen.
The most challenging aspect of attempting to replicate ANY Stevie Ray guitar piece is not being able to hit the notes accurately while nailing the time signature. Stevie didn’t just “play” the guitar. He actually used the guitar as an extension of himself and presented the emotional dynamics and intention through the “way” he played each and every note. The guitar became a very literal theoretically organic part of him. The only way to literally replicate the sound of what Stevie produced, one needs to closely listen to the emotional representation of how he himself presents the story he’s telling, and then interpret that emotion you can grasp through the way you attack and present every note. Stevie was literally emotionally inside every note and massaged those strings in every possible way to discover the specific nuance he intended to project. He did this to such a degree that it became quite obvious that he had absorbed into muscle memory every finite possibility of sound that could be produced from his guitar to an unimaginable degree. Stevie Ray Vaughan was the first guitar player to outwardly show (in brilliantly grand fashion) exactly what making the guitar a literal extension of your voice looks and sounds like. Playing the notes can sound robotic. But making the guitar speak the vocal nuances you would hear in your head to move out through the strings and fret board can establish an entirely new and uniquely deep relationship with your guitar no matter what style you play. But if you were to point to the most epic example of the most brilliant talent capable of performing music with this sort of intimate intention, Stevie Ray Vaughan is without question THE most obvious candidate. The man was absolutely brilliant in this way of presenting the capabilities of the guitar. Yes, the GOAT in that category for sure. 👍🏻😎👍🏻 EDIT: As you can see, I can get incredibly wordy, lol. But I had to add to this comment because it is actually very important for players wanting to truly replicate SRV’s sound and techniques as closely as possible to know that it is absolutely possible to get pretty damn close if willing to put in the effort. Seeing it done myself, with a serious and substantial effort, one CAN dynamically transform the evolution of your own sound to achieve a truly captivating presentation skill with your guitar far beyond just being an efficient player. The reason I know this quite confidently is because I witnessed a very close friend take the very unique journey basically outlined in my comment above of carefully studying Stevie Ray more personally in his performances beyond just the notes alone. He carefully put together the puzzle of how SRV approached and executed the emotional intention of each song for as many songs as he could study so he could get a more broad view and picking out the similarities where possible. In his own words “It was the most intense and difficult task I’ve ever done musically because I was trying to internally profile another persons emotional displays, not just their notes. But the overall transformation in my guitar playing was worth every damn minute of time I spent doing this.” In about 2 years, the guy transformed from an excellent player to one of the most powerfully dynamic guitar players I’ve ever heard. So I am quite convinced one is quite capable of gaining substantial benefit from giving it a serious effort. 😎😎😎
I grew up playing Doobie brothers tunes like Long Train Running, Listen to the music. You learn how to mute and release those strings. You are generating a rhythm that drives the song.
I have given up trying to play Srv or hendrix as no matter how much I practice them they never sound anything like the originals and I just can't do them justice 😥
Hi, Ross! great lesson, as always! Can you (or anyone) tell me what are the colours of pickguard and knobs! looks fabulous on fiesta red and would also on my daphne blue strat! Thanks and stay healthy! Cheers!
1:36 you honestly have to put all your might and effort into your playing to even sound like SRV. Like your life depends it and you are playing your last show ever. It’s a combination of reckless abandonment and absolute control over your instrument.
Sorry but it’s scuttle button. Regardless of whether you feel it or not. Skillfully, it’s scuttle button that is harder. Feeling isn’t skill. I do think you nailed it though and I like the tone tips.
"J" strokes is actually what Stevie Ray told me he uses, that you call it selective strumming"? Same concept.I spent hour with SRV going over picking techniques and this was brought up . YOUR CLOSE BUT MISSING YOUR low E note on that intro.its Not from bass guitar. Hey: Show entire song? please...& ty.
I don't know what it is, but to me SRV was, little more than a competent rock n roll guitarist. No disrespect intended, but he was just ok. IMHO, there are and were many more accomplished players out there, who didn't achieve his status.
Each to their own and all but I'm curious to know how much SRV you've actually listened to? I feel like you're missing out! I'd recommend giving 'Riviera Paradise' a spin if you haven't heard it.
I look forward to your decades of blood sweat and tears resulting in albums, awards and rightly deserved acclaim. Don't let the fact that Stevie also inspired thousands (including yours truly) to get clean also get in the way...
That's an opinion that certainly flies in the face of historical fact. Consider the vast legions of guitarists, many now well known, who have imitated his style over the years and continue to do so. Not a bad legacy to have as a merely competent rock n roll guitarist.
I love your content and SRV is my favorite guitarist, hey i wrote you an e-mail, would like to buy one of your courses, is there still a discount for them?

I've watched hundreds of TH-cam Guitar tutorials - this is definitely one of the best ones. The playing is spot on and the exercises are genius: Not only do they help you learn the technique needed for the actual song - they are also really fun to play. Very well done - thank you very much!
Ross, I've been waiting for a better lesson of this tune to be posted online! I like your approach to learning the different parts of the lick! You play it well. I would love to learn the rest of the tune from you. Any chance you'll be putting together a full tutorial? One is greatly needed for this song by someone who can really play it!!! Cheers my friend!
After watching this I realized that learning the main riff for "Who did you think I was" by John Mayer taught me a lot of the techniques used here. I didn't realize how much that riff is similar to parts of this one. th-cam.com/video/qOBb555R66w/w-d-xo.html
That recognizable style... Chuck, Jimi, Eddie, BB, Carlos, the list goes on. We all love stuff like this that grabs you by the throat. If I only had a "recognizable style" like Stevie; who doesn't want that... It's mainly in the fingers; Stevie and Eddie had pos guitars when you think about it. Thanks for what you do!
I do agree with you about the POS guitars. Fingers aside I feel most newer guitar players should pass on chasing down the guitar pickup rabbit hole and instead focus on their amplifier/speaker. It is the amplifier and speakers (IMO) that really nail the tone of an Artist. Having modern modeling software or digital amplifiers is a huge plus when dialing in a specific sound/tone. I'm old school and started playing guitar back in the 1970s. After years of trial and error I can cover almost anything with my current rig (dual amps, '70s Twin Reverb and a late '90s Marshall 1987x). For 1/2 my investment and 1/10th the weight a good modeling amp would be a much better solution.
@@hkguitar1984 I agree 101 percent! I read a review of the $25,000.00 Van Halen Frankenstrat tribute. Only working pickup was in the bridge and it was a humbucker with no covers. The Fender Custom Shop model was limited to 300 and sold out in 15 minutes... 300 idiots with a lot of money; lol! 🤟
Watching this made me realize I have been playing this really wrong. Maybe lazy might be the better way to phrase it. Anyway, I think you did a fantastic job with this intro and I’m going to try to unlearn my take and try again. Thanks a lot Ross..🤬😜
Nice channel, Ross ! I subscribed today on your channel and I hope learning a lot from your guitar techniques, frasing and sounds 👍 The Robben Ford tutorial you did was amazing ! Keep up the good work, mate and this channel makes my day for sure ! Greetz from The Netherlands !

Yes! I've never been able to get it to sound like SRV. You did great man!
Thanks man!
There was a DVD ON THIS ENTIRE SONG ALSO THE DVD SHOWS 10 OTHER ONES. I HAVEN'T SEEN IT LATELY IN STORES: BUT ITS MORE ACCURATE THAN THIS GUY.
From playing In a band that plays a lot of Albert King & Stevie stuff id say the most important thing is volume. That sound requires a lot of air to be pushed by the speakers. there’s something magical that happens when the tubes are really pushed & how they interact with the output transformer & pre amp section. Of course I use a 100 watt Two Rock so I know that helps a lot tone wise. But honestly you can get a damn good tone with a reissue Fender amp or blackface inspired amp
I found this one deceptively easy to learn but insanely hard to master.

Thank you! You're absolutely right - those small inflections make a huge difference.

Great playing! 🙌
Thank you!
Good stuff dude.
This riff is so tricky! You nailed it bro!
Thanks Alan!
Testify & Rude Mood are both monsters as well
Killing Floor and Message of Love by Jimi Hendrix was the original Rock ryhmn and note solo ever!
Ross, I'd love to see you tackle SRV's solo from "Baboom/Mama Said" from the Vaughan Brothers album 'Family Style'.

Would love to hear your take on The Telephone Song… Nobody does that song right.
Can you do a video on string muting? That was amazing and effortless muting
Great video! Thanks
Thank you!
Soon as I read that headline I knew exactly what song it was going to be
How often are you aiming for chord tones when you are soloing? Or do you not really think about it?
Over a blues? Always aiming to resolve to 3rd's for the most part. The more comfortable you get doing so, the less thinking it requires and the more it just starts to naturally happen.
Well done Ross! Another SRV one that seems hard is Rude Mood
Should also be said that counting the rests in the intro immediately before this riff is no picnic either!
Haha that was always good fun playing this in a band back in the day and trying to all come in at the right time
Hendrix chord...and Dbm pentatonic killer riff...nice job. edit Kyle...D flat..
Dm my man.. well technically D flat cause Stevie tuned down a half step.. but either way.. I agree with the sentiment..
That's scuttle buttin

Hi Ross.. is that strat using treble bleed??
That is the song that way always the hardest for me by Stevie
Your Tone is always so tasty! Your lessons are fantastic. Love the absolute attention to timing, and technique. You’re a great teacher.
Thank you!
Tin Pan Alley next?
I have given up trying to play Srv or hendrix as no matter how much I practice them they never sound anything like the originals and I just can't do them justice 😥
I got blisters on my fingers!!!!!
Me too!
Just when I thought I had all the pedals I wanted....
It's so hard even Stevie didn't play it right live!
Awesome job man! Not easy!
Thanks David!
Hi, Ross! great lesson, as always! Can you (or anyone) tell me what are the colours of pickguard and knobs! looks fabulous on fiesta red and would also on my daphne blue strat! Thanks and stay healthy! Cheers!
Thank you! Mint green for the pickguard maybe? I'm not too sure - this is a relic'd guitar so everything looks 'aged'.
Is this in D minor.?
Also blended blues and jazz
Timing and groove is the hardest thing 😖
Definitely!
Now play it with turbo distortion
1:36 you honestly have to put all your might and effort into your playing to even sound like SRV. Like your life depends it and you are playing your last show ever. It’s a combination of reckless abandonment and absolute control over your instrument.
Rude mood is hardcore
For you? Yes
Very talented You are young man. I always loved SRV`s tone the guy is really missed . I got really bummed out to hear the sad news of his death.
Thank you Tony!
Really well done cover but this ain’t the hardest SRV tune. Rude Mood is the hardest.
The thing with SRV is that is what was all natural improvised and second hand to him, we mortals are to consious about it.

you would need fingers of steel.

True guitarist and musicians learn songs from ear. Timeless fact.
Watch him on Austin city limits playing that tune . there's a chromatic slide up everyone misses. 6th and 7th note is slide BC DCDC FG FG. BCDCDC FG.
Been using this lesson for past hour alongside the official Hal Leonard SRV tab book and this tab/lesson is more accurate.
Im sorry but as far as blending rhythm and lead this got nothing on voodoo child, ill give you its harder, but best blend? Cmon
You sounded pretty darn close. I'd be happy with that!
