    Default SRV Blues Pluck Technique

    Do you have a handle on this technique?

    Great explanation as usual Robert. BTW I guess Stevie got this type of double stops from a young Buddy Guy. Why not calling it "snap" ? It looks like what all bluesmen were doing already in the 50's. BTW We record a version of Cold Shot on our last album I love that song

    Great lesson Robert - I dig the friendly look of that room! I remember the day back in the 90s, when I bought an SRV tab book and finally found out the secret behind the Blues Pluck technique. It was one of these special moments!
