Little Wing (G3, SRV ...)

Hi guys,

New year is coming! Let me share some of my favourite video clip with u all.

This is a legend song called Little Wing

"Little Wing" is a song written by Jimi Hendrix. He first recorded the song on the 1967 album Axis: Bold as Love.
"Little Wing" is played using the unique chord/melody guitar style that Hendrix developed during his early career stints in rhythm and blues bands. In this style, the guitar sounds as though it is playing two parts. This is done by simultaneously playing multiple complementary notes, often parts of chords, and then changing a note within the chord to create a melodic effect. Other songs played in this style include "Life Without You" by Stevie Ray Vaughan, "The Boy From Seattle" by Steve Vai, "Yellow Ledbetter" by Pearl Jam, and "Under the Bridge" by Red Hot Chili Peppers. The unusual flanging sound of the lead guitar part is a result of the Doppler effect which is created using a rotating speaker cabinet, or Leslie speaker.
A song by the same name appeared on Neil Young's 1980 album, Hawks & Doves, but is a different song entirely.

Happy New Year 2008!

Good luck & all the best!

I like the solo part that played by Steve Vai & John Petrucci.

Tips: How to tune 12 String Guitar?


Hi guys,

Today i want to share with you my finding on HOW to tune your 12-string guitar.

Note: Strings are numbered 1 - 12 from the High E string to the Low E string.

The chart above shows the notes that each string is tuned to. You might not know what an octave is. This term refers to an interval. It basically means that the note is 12 half-steps higher or lower than the original note. In this case, all the octaves are higher. This is explained in more detail in Lesson 11: Intervals Part 1. In the chart below, if the sounds are not given, that is because they were given in the chart above. Detail...
