Band: Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble
Song: Little Wing
Album: The Sky Is Crying/Soul To Soul
Written by James Marshall Hendrix
Tabbed by Mike MacDonald
h= hammer on
p= pull off
b= bend
br= bend and release
/= slide up
= slide down
x= dead note
E flat tuning. Stevie uses a Ibanez TS-9 Tubescreamer on both versions
of this song. On the version on the Soul To Soul album he plays into
another Hendrix song, "Third Stone From The Sun". On that version he
uses a couple effects (which is what I like to use). He uses wah (vox),
vibrato, and like 2 seconds of delay. Here it is:
