The viewer requests keep coming in!  "I Ain't Superstitious" is one of the most challenging songs yet... but you can do it!  I break the riff down into three parts for you to master.  I'm especially thrilled to teach a song that is in the key of D...while the guitar is still tuned to open G!

First of all, let's take a look at the original version from 1961.  Backing Wolf (vocal and guitar) are pianist Henry Gray, guitarists Hubert Sumlin and Jimmy Rogers, drummer Sam Lay (drums), and with Willie Dixon on upright bass.

Here's the original recording.  Scroll down for the lesson.

For the lesson, you'll need a three string cigar box guitar tuned to open G (GDG) and a stubby slide.

Enjoy...
