Our band is about to do this and I've pretty much got it together except I'm curious what y'all think about the A bass note jerry sorta drones off of during the various riffs. I, in my instructional vid, thought it was the latter with the thumb over the top - not the easiest thing to do - then I saw this vid and thought he's hitting the open A - upon further review now I'm not so sure (although not enough to bang my head on a wall )
So I can do it either way but it's a bit tougher with the thumb over the top but there's more control - it's easier to kinda drone the open A but a bit more difficult to control - gotta deaden a bit with the right or left hand. Or is he doing both at different times? Just to make it more mysterious
A great look at the main riff during the intro about 40 seconds in. Any thoughts?
