[Chorus 2, bars 15-26] The excitement star ts to build, and the solo moves up to shape 4 of the A Minor Pentatonic at the 12th fret. The repeating phrase in bars 17 and 18 and the big bend in bar 19 are classic Clapton fare. The double-stops in bar 23 three will sound all the more exciting if you dig in really hard with the pick. [Chorus 3, bars 27-36] The solo now moves up to the ‘dusty end’ of the fretboard. Playing with a nice feel and good intonation can be challenging up here, so practise these ideas slowly. Admittedly, the extra access that the Gibson SG offers is a great help, par ticularly over a Les Paul, but there’s no reason why you can’t play these ideas on any guitar.
