Playing tips
- Use your amp's built-in reverb set to a moderate level to recreate the spacious feel of the original tone.
- Pick lightly for a more dynamic response and to achieve the touch-sensitive dynamics characteristic of SRV's playing.
- Focus on fingerstyle techniques to maintain the warm, glassy tone of the neck pickup.
