    I've been learning this for a while now, and I've come to understand one thing: there's a big difference between learning the notes and chords of a song, and actually playing them with the correct feel/phrasing. I might be playing Little Wing, but this guy is *playing* Little Wing.

    This is by leaps and bounds the most accurate rendition of little wing on the internet. I have no doubt pilky could have improvised more, let loose more, maybe played with more feeling if he wanted to. But this was not a guitarist doing his version of little wing - this was a guitarist studying and performing little wing like Horowitz studied and performed Rachmaninoff. Every nuance of Jimi’s playing is recreated down to muted notes, grace notes, extra strings strummed, direction of picking… there is so much attention to the smallest of details. Kudos to pilky - the millions of views are well deserved.

      I thought that “gummy sound” might have been a Univibe at a low level but no - Jimi didn’t get one until 1969. It could be the specific pickups and their height. He is in Position 2 (or 4 - never get those straight). Maybe they’re out of phase?

      Seriously? You don’t know where this comes from? I doubt you’ve studied many guitar players then. You probably listen to a lot of zeppelin and Van Halen and believe you’ve studied “many” guitarists and you are deep by unironically loving the Beatles because of their “songwriting”
