    Man, I am in shock, that was so deep, yet so easy to do, I always heard it on my cd’s and I thought they were doing lots of stuff to get those sounds, and now, wow, I am speechless. Thanks buddy.

    If your still wondering: Am7, slide to Bm7
    Dm7 then F9 and E7+9 in the last bars. Pentatonic licks in between.

    Love those “R&B” shapes b/c they can so quickly lend themselves to the Hendrix type hammer on and pull off double stop shapes. Great Work.

    the thrill is gone….

  • 23 DarkShroom // Mar 28, 2009 at 11:58 pm

    there wouldn’t be much point in using a slide for that (i assume you mean a bottleneck slide), they give a totally different sound

  • 24 SoulCheese77 // Mar 28, 2009 at 11:58 pm

    Am – 5 7 7 5 5 5 (He only played the last 4 strings, which still includes all the notes, but removes the bass.) And yes, it’s a barre chord.
