Description
This is a Stevie Ray Vaughan inspired shuffle that can be played on either electric or acoustic guitar (electric preferred). I’m using a Boss BD-2 pedal with overdrive at around 40% to get the tone. This lesson is intended for intermediate players, but I always encourage beginners to try because at a minimum you’ll be able to pick up a few new licks.

That’s it, Thanks, jim
Really appreciate these lessons, Brian. Each one is like a single piece in a very big jigsaw puzzle and I am beginning to see how it all fits together. Keep them coming!
Hi, if you’re still here, I just mentioned how the riffs from the current lesson, EP141, fit right in here!
You blew my mind, man.
Thanks for the lesson Brian. I have struggled with developing rythm for years. This lesson is just what I needed
Nice one Brian. PeterJ
Day 1, no way day 2, maybe day 3 rockin it Thanks Brian!
Very catchy melody. Appreciate the way you integrate the “theory” with the note for note demonstration. Thanks!
Two things.
First:
Thanks for this one. Cool melody. I’m gonna learn this one on acoustic, which i play solely.
Second, a question:
After approx. 30 years of playing acoustics i’ve never learned to do vibrato (with the wrist). I’ve always wanted to learn it and tried it dozens of times for longer periods of time, never succeeded.. But now i need to learn it. My playing is getting better and better and the only thing missing is vibrato. So my question is could you / will you ever do a close-up lesson on vibrato?
another great lesson.wonder if you could do a eagles lesson
i cant tell you why solo
Hi Brian- I have a quick question. When u say that a lesson is for electric or acoustic I was hoping that every now and then you could play it on acoustic as well.. It matters not which instrument you give the lesson on but for us acoustic only players it would be nice to hear things on acoustic as well….just a simple request thanks

Excellent lesson, and I love you guitar choice. SRV on your 335 would just be weird 🙂
Can you tab the answer section in ‘a one and a two and a’ format with down and up signage.
Love old school double stops and phrasing…
lovely piece. Are you sure about the first two notes on the tab?
Yes you teach clear and brilliant
Thank you, Brian, brilliant lesson!
EP141, also in A, has some nice single-note lines that can come in handy here. It’s more than just being in A, it’s the use of the major pentatonic that makes it appropriate. They sound like they’re “made for each other” to me. I love the rhythm here. It’s a serious challenge to me to play the E part, can’t do it right yet; I’ll work on it.
Someone in the comments above asked you to play the songs that can be played on both acoustic and electric on both. Every once in a while that would be a seriously nice addition, a treat.
Would someone please refer me to the SRV song(s) this one draws its inspirations from? Thank you!
This is awsome to have the opportunity to play or even get close to stevie ray vaughan since “double trouble” … “Mary had a little lamb” … “Texas flood” all his work as a musician and guitar player until now is such a great source of feeling and atmosphere to absorb which motivate your inner sense to keep playing guitar… The key of A makes it so easy to play and understand …This is a golden lesson and a priceless achievement playing “the blues”
