Watched this video when I was new to playing guitar and would watch SRV and John Mayer stuff. 3 years later and guitar is my life. I come back here from time to time for a rush of nostalgia. Thank you for this memory
I’ve been really into SRV & Mayer for about the same amount of time as you and damn idk what it is but this song just moves me everytimeeeee! So awesome to see you love guitar, it’s really an amazing free vacation from our everyday lives
I think credit where it’s do mate, Pilky is amazing- I wish I had an ounce of his talent- but this chap her has put a much more creative, personal take on his version. I don’t prefer either though. Both magic.
I’ve watched a lot of your covers after I came across this video. Blues is a genre you should consider Will. It’s an emotional journey. Happiness, sadness, all the above. You have this gift Will and it comes out in your playing. Chuck some blues covers in there and see what happens. You never know and it’s no loss. After reading the comments to this cover I doubt there will be. Wish you all the luck on your journey Will. NZ fan
Came here after practicing Lenny today, seeing this really motivates me to become a better player. That was the best thing I have heard for a while, well done.
I keep coming back to this.. So original with the gentle finger picking without background music. Who's your influences? I sense a bit of Knopfler in this!
I think youtube is deeply unfair. I had to wait 7 years for them to recommend me this video 🥺 Great cover. Congratulations and keep up the good work!!!
I need this on Spotify. This is one of the best covers of this song ever heard. So unique in the vibe and feel. Some minuscule note changes have made this song! Well done! 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼
I've been looking for the words to try to describe this for 30 minutes but could not find any. The only ones I can think of are "amazement" and "masterpiece", and I'm talking about your version, not the original song, what you did here is just above magic. And beyond all this, you finger picking is just incredible, I'm stunned. My most sincere congratulations.
That's Fantastic!!! I wish there was a more powerful word to describe. Your playing and your tone is phenomenal. Everyone with a strat has dreams just like this video. Thank You very much.
Just nabbed an MIJ 50's reissue in Daphne Blue, myself. I'm currently changing out some cosmetics (blacking out the parts for contrast, like the pickup covers, knobs, trem, jack plate, selector switch, and tuners). I'm in love with this guitar! Anyway, excellent vid. Your playing and reverb game are on point!! Great sound!
I like the coincidence that got me here. And to find this before sleep is really mesmerizing and amazing. This is one of the purest covers I have ever heard and seen. Stevie would be proud to here this and that his music is such a big influence on guitar players through out the world to this day still. Keep up the great work m8 ✌️

Have you mastered this and the original so far?
that pinky have a mind of its own
Give me your tone, just hand it over and no one gets hurt.
LOOOOOOL i cried
buy LANEY CUB12R and plug your guitar to it. I have it and sounds like the tone of this video.

reverb and a clean strat is all you need
I watch this ten times a day.
Virginia McDonald me too

@@rahullet6123 same!!! There's just something so special about this one
That felt good on my ears, brother.
I remember watching this years ago! All I knew was to search for the Lenny cover and a guy with a blue strat! Love this cover!
awesome finger playing technique and a very nice twist on the original. Plus extra points for rocking the corduroy pants.
This is my favorite cover of this song. Outstanding from every other cover of this song I've seen.
Amazing, absolutely beautiful!!! 🙂
I have died and ascended into heaven.
thats a fine looking strat you got there
I just... you know... have nothing to say, I'd listen to this like in almost every situation
that is one of the most beautiful peices of music ive ever listen to
Your hands across that fretboard, smooth as Butter
I have watched this at least 300 times, my goodness it's like magic that penetrates the soul. So talented
The 60 cycle hum ands to the feel of the song!
R u the legend pilky27?
I wish!!
Will what amp/pickups are you rocking. This cover is sensational man

Ot Reyna pilky’s hands are 4x bigger 😂😂

So how’s the progress
Exactly same scenario im in along with the same exact thoughts. Hope you got lenny down bro! Im still working
I keep coming back to this.. So original with the gentle finger picking without background music. Who's your influences? I sense a bit of Knopfler in this!
Love this! Sweet playing and melody.
Since discovering this video, I've watched it about 15 times. I know, I'm way behind.
Listened to it 50 times.
so smooth , Your sound is truly gold
Duuuuuuude. Beautiful in every way, love your tone, phrasing and dynamics.
This was just.. wow.. no words
Blown away!
This is the kind of video that deserves over more than a million views.
The best of SRV and John Mayer together. Awesome playing and killer tone here!
I kust keep coming back for more, it's too damn good.
I just can't get over this. The tone screams heaven. And the plucks are so sweet.
Absolute perfect amount of reverb and insane unique combo of both SRV and Mayer styles, 👍🏻
I want the tabs for this!!! Absolutely beautiful man
Same. After trying to watch the video in slow motion and replicate on the guitar, i’ve realized its impossible.
are there tabs available today?@@kylekamins6034
wow. very good. i felt that. stayed for the entire thing.
God, that's nice!!!!
Best find of the day! I just recently purchased my first Strat and can’t wait until it arrives
headless guitar covers on UA-cam are special
That pinky finger got a workout! Well done!
All this glorious tone coming from your hands. What a gift you wield, sir. Thank you for playing my favourite SRV song your way.
I listen to this when I’m sad
Fantastico.
eyoooo that tone got tickling all over!!! Superb playing!
So this really hits deeply from ma bones to my soul!!!!! Lovely! 🙏🏽
I think youtube is deeply unfair.
I had to wait 7 years for them to recommend me this video 🥺
Great cover.
Congratulations and keep up the good work!!!
feel like Combination of mark knopfler and SRV，awesome！
So deep, wide, sensitive playing, oh man, I can feel that you feel it! Excuse me but this is fuckin' awesome!
Wow. Just wow.
Great playing, and lovely tone!
I need this on Spotify. This is one of the best covers of this song ever heard. So unique in the vibe and feel. Some minuscule note changes have made this song! Well done! 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼
words cannot describe
Excellent rendition! Nice variations, nice tone, really nice guitar. Two thumbs up all the way :-)
wowwwwwwwwwwww this is just surreal my man. So majestic
I was blown away by the tone and the fact that you gave that song a amazing creative touch !!!!!!
Imagine waking up to this song
Magical!
Beautiful...this takes to me to a concert where I first heard SRV. CHILLBUMPS
This is such a great cover!
I would love it so much to see that broken down into a slowed down tutorial. Be the teacher!
Sublime. Great interpretation and technique. Felt every note
Some "Slow dancing" in there aswell ;)
I like to think Slow dancing is the love child of Lenny and Yellow Ledbetter
beautiful playing
