Tightrope- Stevie Ray Vaughan

Main Riff

Here’s a great SRV riff. It’s a challenge to play it up to speed at first, so I’ve included an audio sample of it somewhat slower than the recorded version. You may need to start off even slower. There’s nothing wrong with that, just take your time. Like I said, it’s pretty hard. The main riff is played as an intro to the song and after each transition after the verse and chorus.

Beverly Hills by Weezer

You should have no trouble playing this riff at all. For the most part, the two guitars play the same thing, except for the bend at the end of the measure. This riff is set to a standard 90 bpm (beats per minute).
