EXAMPLE1 Yardbirds style solo

Eric used a Telecaster into a Vox AC30 during this period, but his stinging solo lines were still full sounding, with lots of unhurried sustain. Note the use of G# here in bars 2 and 10. This quirk crops up in many of Eric’s solos. Be mindful of those bluesy quarter-tone bends and choose your moments to use vibrato.
