SOTW #1: Crosstown Traffic by Jimi Hendrix!

Post  Smaz on Thu Oct 01, 2009 7:56 am

A classic tune, by one of the most famous guitar players. Noel Redding plays bass on this one, there are a couple of ways it could be played - it's down to personal preference Smile

I won't post any tabs, as I'd recommend trying to learn this by ear - it's not too difficult. It starts in C, which is either the 3rd fret A string, or the 8th fret E string.

Give it a go, and have fun learning it! Any questions, just ask Wink

My take:



Bass is a bit quiet, as I've just stuck flatwounds on it & need to adjust my recording set up. I can't remember if I learnt the first part of this from a tab or something ages ago, but this time round I've finished learning it by ear.
