Satisfy Suzie SRV Lick
Monday, August 10, 2009 at 4:53PM
In this lesson I highlight a lick from the song "Satisfy Suzie" from the "Strike Like Lightning" album that Stevie played on with Lonnie Mack. This lick is a good one to study because it shows how he modified a typical swing style lick in Box 1 to fit a different time signature. Gear details below the video.

Guitar
For this lesson I was using my Stauffer Guitars "Legend" model. Basswood/Zebrawood body, Warmoth Pro '59 Roundback profile neck with ebony fretboard, jumbo stainless steel frets, Hipshot bridge, Graphtech saddles, Lollar '59 Blonde Pickups. There's a demo of this guitar here.
Amp
I was playing through a Fender Blues Junior Tweed NOS edition amp, which has the Jensen C12N speaker. I use this in most of my lessons because I can get pretty decent tone at reasonable volumes, something that is essential when recording these lessons, so as not to overpower the camcorder microphone.
