So, two things, first, I think you may be one of the better TH-cam guitar and music teachers/ resources out there. Thing two...and just my humble two cents. Way too much is made of SRVs string gauges, signal chain n amps. I'm sure whatever I played would sound better if Dumble made me my own custom amp with a zillion extra watts. SRVs tone came from inside him. There are a couple of rough quality videos of Stevie sitting in with Bernard Allison where he plays a Squier and sounds every bit like , well, himself. SRV, as you pointed out, played hard with both hands.
SRV had a familiar sound to his music based on all of his hero's, but yet it was a SRV sound. One of many reason why he was so wonderful. Thank you for the great video.
Thanks for your SRV lessons. Stevie was a badass blueman. Happy he was clean for his last few years and was actually able to enjoy the ride for a bit. I was lucky enough to catch a show during the Power and Passion leg of the In Step tour on July, 4th 1990. Shortly after that he was gone.
I had a girlfriend buy me Texas Flood on cassette. Like you, my head was in Hard Rock and Heavy Metal, and I dismissed it. The year that he died in that helicopter crash I was finally mature enough to get it. I have "Live at the El Mocambo" on my digital Apple library. My first impressions were, "This guy's hands a flying all of the fretboard, but those notes are still coming out!" He was an amazing guitarist.
Yeah my dad brought home Couldn't Stand the Weather lp in '84 and it was def mind blowing. I too was into 80s shred but that SRV lp was an eye-opener. Cool video bro😎🤘👍🖤
That's awesome and rather common (from what I've heard people say) it seems SRV was able to impress all the rock/metalheads enough to grab our attention. He was a badass player fo' sho'. Thanks again and ROCK ON\m/
SRV used chords shapes from the 12th and higher up the neck. I'm not sure that these types of 7th,9th, dominant blues chords he used way up from the 12th fret and higher up the neck. Be nice to have a youtube video learning these types of chords.
Hey Bill! Be sure to watch the entire video, as I explain and demonstrate many of the higher position chords you're talking about and almost all of the material in this lesson came directly from his music/songs. Good luck!
SRV uses more higher position chords, i know u just showed a few but there is much more if you watch a bunch of his live shows he is playing a lot of 6th,7ths, 9ths chords in the higher position above the 12th fret. I was thinking it would be a good "themed video" to just specialized in all those higher position chords that he uses. He will moves a lot of different types of chords in the higher positions. I will have to look at the live videos again and tell you which ones to look over. I know live versions of superstition and willie the pimp he is doing some funking higher position chords
It will probably be a little while before I revisit SRV in this specific area, and really there's only so much I can show in a lesson that's under 15 minutes. Thanks for watching and these comments! : )
LATE NIGHT, Philip Sayce is a SRV clone type, maybe find some licks he does in his live videos he often uses 3note runs on one string up the neck which he is famous for doing. Check out his live video from namm th-cam.com/video/QyduPVTP1Z0/w-d-xo.html

Hi, loved your SRV videos! They are very informative and sound great, you are an excellent player yourself. Thanks

Love love love SRV! Rip!
Extra heavy strings! He was a monster!
What a great video. Thank you!

My other comments were in the beginning of the video out of my excitement!
But, thanks a bunch! Loved this little lesson a lot!
Thank you and no worries whatsoever!
I'm stoked that you're excited!
: )
Rock and roll\m/
yes I understand just suggesting it in the future videos
Man.....I miss SRV!

Late Night Lessons please do a part 2 on srv, there is so much more to learn from his playing
