Great video, man! Tons of good information for beginner players!

Great idea! Restricted playing helps you get more out of fewer notes and concentrate on those chords tones. A lot like BB King 🙂

I have a worthy question for you sir. (JohnT) Ive only just listened to derek trucks and susan t’s song bound by glory. His tone and phrasing in this one is nothing short of typical DT. My question to you is I amd sure thats Allman’s Goldtop the 15 fret is identical. Im almost positive Derek is still playing in open e, or could he have tuned down to open d since the chordal tones sound like D, and G?

I’m pretty sure Derek plays everything in Open E Tuning.
