thick, bassy overdrive....I love it!)

A few notes about this tab:

I made this tab for myself so I could learn the song (and especially the
solo) better, simply because I love it so much! I wasn't planning on
uploading it to any tab sites, but some of my friends convinced me and I
might as well if I'm helping someone out. This is one of my favorite
SRVaughan solos of all time, so I just had to transcribe it. Also, those of
you who know the song will know/easily figure out the order and what not.
I just gave you what to play, not when to play it. Also, you'll notice the
lack of his second solo. Basically that is because he was just improvising,
doing the same things he did in the first solo.The first solo is the one
that you will hear on various recordings, which is why I felt it to be more
significant. If you haven't figured it out yet, the solo is in Bbminor
pentatonic, with some extensions to the 12th and 14th frets. Those of you
who can master this solo can easily improvise over that key for the second
solo. Have fun with this one. I have been studying Vaughan's style for many
years now (and built his guitar! Check here for more information on this
project: http://www.geocities.com/vaughanabe13/projectSRVindex.html) so I
definately know what I'm doing. This tab is probably about 97-99% accurate
to the version performed on the Live from Austin, Texas DVD. However, it is
not perfect. If any of you experts out there (I'm only 16, hehe) find
mistakes in the solo and what not, please email me at [email protected]
with suggestions on how to fix it or make it better. Also email me with any
questions or comments regarding this song or Vaughan in general (including
his guitar, which I have studied immensely for 2 years and know like the
back of my hand).
