Here's a guitar lesson for this cool Freddie King song I've always enjoyed playing. It has a nice groovy line that gives the song a certain "theme". This examples shows the default rhythm line. The song is a 12 bar blues, and Freddie mostly plays licks in between the vocal lines through out the song.
I've also included the 2 intro licks Freddy plays before he starts singing. Be sure to listen to the original song, it's a good one!
I'm using my Digitech JamMan in this lesson as a quick way to create that background groove for the 2 intro licks.
Here is the tab for the main groove.

This is a handy tool I absolutely recommend. Being able to slow down a song can be very, very helpful when learning stuff from recordings. This one works great.
I have lots of gear demos too on this site. Go and take a look at some of my Guitar Videos for some examples of gear I use or have used.
would think it's cool to see the lead guitar line broken down a bit, note by note. otherwise, very, very cool!
