Re: HIGH WATER EVERYWHERE verse riff

you can play that whole riff in the 1st e minor pentatonic box

Re: HIGH WATER EVERYWHERE verse riff

Yeah when I worked it out I played it entirely in that 1st E minor pentatonic box, that way you can use the open strings! smile

When you see Joe at a show, somebody please ask him when the tab book is coming out.

Re: HIGH WATER EVERYWHERE verse riff

I think the use of open strings is what gives the tune its real flavor and feel.  I have also fooled around with adding a glass slide for a little extra blues feel (I kind of blend the 2 guitar parts together).  High Water Everywhere is one of my favorite all time tracks from Joe!
