Who do you usually have for a physical audience? Like, winged horses & unicorns or what? Just so long as they are mythical. Vocals by a talking snake? That was so good I had to slide the timer right back & do it again. That's an impressive skill. Obviously one which requires no end of practice to be as fluid as you are. As one of the digitally stunted people of this world (short fingers mate, 'es got short finga's) it's only right, & basically a requirement of a digitally stunted person that I despise you,..,.you & your long fingers.

​@NopeNoWay-us2jkI've fallen off, but this used to be my specialty. In terms of practice habits to get this type of akill, what you want to do is try to create/recreate an entire composition using only your guitar in real time. The way you do this is by distilling a song down to only the essential elements. You can try to make your playing faster to throw more in, but what you are really trying to do is make sure that if there is something in the song that you feel it is imperative to hit, you structur÷ everything around making sure you hit that. As you go on, you begin to compile a list of what the song actually needs, and you make sure that, whatever flourishes you might want to throw in there, you are always meeting those essential elements that you feel constitute the essence of the song. Over time, you will find that you pretty much default into falling into sync. This approach will begin to become a fundamental element of your playing through whatever you wind up playing. Hope this helps.

Smooth, soft and scratchy where needed. You took a piece that made music history and brought it into your world. This is what musicians do, unlike instrumentalists. It's all there; Jimi is the protagonist, I hear a bit of SRV, J. Copeland, BB King, A. King and many others. Culture leads to skill and you have learned this precious lesson. Know your triads my teacher said ;) Perfect. Bravo.

My word! That tone - it’s like whisky and honey and sunlight.

[@Robert-n9g5p]

Whiskey, honey and sunlight. Damn I’m stealing that for lyrics my friend 😂

[@jennhartman578]

Hit the nail on the head

[@Iam_Yu627]

Fantastic cover. Brings back fond memories. RIP, SRV

[@StephenSypert]

Bar none, this is my favorite song of all time. I first danced with my new wife to this song at the wedding. Beautifully masterful. Second was Lenny.

[@Godspeed961]

Magical playing ! I just bought a strat and will return it back for sure ha-ha-ha.

[@stevenr.7944]

This little wing gave me goosebumps, I can hardly leave this emotion. Merci mille fois.

We do still have great guitar guitarists and he is up there, Brilliant.

I’m so in love with jimmy’s style , from a moment in my live I decided my name should be “LittleWing” ❤️👀 & so it is - I have to mention jimmy’s drummer & bass player too ! there are almost no better ones ! All together man , it touches my soul , it feels like life is a dream

[@vexor7]

This is absolutely incredible, the technique, the tone, the style is all stellar. One of the best covers I've ever seen, not just of this amazing song but in general. Keep up the awesome work man!

[@seanmannguitar]

Thanks a lot!

[@jfbittencourt]

Amazing dynamic: playability, pickup management, technique (left and right hand, pick,…), timbre/voicing… Congratulations!!!!!

[@AmateurHourAuto]

That tone at 1:18 is angelic. I mean the whole video is incredible but when you jumped to the bridge pickup 🥵

Thanks!

[@rodrigogonzalez2022]

Dear Sean this is one great example when a cover exceeds the original. WELL DONE!! Lot of technique, but most important tons of feeling here.

[@ugsdit5296]

no disrespect to this guy, but i gotta disagree with you. i feel like these days, people just hear big bends and think "wow thats a lot of feel", even if theres no real substance to the composition. and seriously, im not saying this is bad or anything, he plays very well and all, but im just not so amazed, and think that he lost the heart of the original song. when i hear this solo, i dont relate it to the message of the original song in any way, and thats fine, its his own thing, but i dont see how it exceeds the original in any other way than technical ability

I forgot there were lyrics until about seven minutes in, then I forgot again. Hypnotic, incredible job, super creative, and expressive.

Wow, that guitar has the most beautifully warm yet crisp tones, which only the skill of the player can account for! Great playing!

[@Kozm0h]

Beautifully done, although, I must admit, your beautiful performance of this piece inadvertently shines light on just how great Jimi Hendrix was, and the idea that nobody will ever again achieve that sound, that passion, that flame atop the purple haze. He's just so...amazing, and I appreciate you for allowing me to experience one of the most beautiful covers of his greatness. Rock on, brother! \m/

I would absolutely love a tone tutorial on this one. This may be the best tone I've ever heard, not to mention the playing.

[@christophermccann1753]

Can't help watching this it's just unreal tone from his hands that not many people can grasp ❤

This is easily one of the best renditions of this song ive evr seen. Absolutely stunning im downloading this

[@jellymaneducation6168]

Such great feel and original version

[@gkott78]

It's a very rare occasion in the modern youtube/social media world that I stumble across something that makes my jaw drop. Well sir, you have me in awe...... Skill, feel, TONE, all of it is just superb. I subscribed and am now down the rabbit hole of your other videos. I've been watching your content for the past 30 minutes and may have to call into work tomorrow to take it all in. I was not ready........ i might need a minute to soak all this in. Unbelievable, just unbelievable

[@seanmannguitar]

Cheers!

[@robinwoo9702]

absolutely astonishing to see such a performance. little wing has a special place in my heart and your performance of it was definitely the greatest I have experienced.
