Hey Bruce
Yes, Duke said to keep it light. But to emulate the tone on his track it needs to break up. He has an overdrive pedal - a bad monkey. But i don't think he is using it...

Hey Bruce, sounds good. If you have a small amp (5 watts) that you can crank, i think it adds to the vintage of the track - notice Duke's track has that breaking up sound. Thick...

Sloppin' and Slidin' First Verse Breakdown
Hi again,
So I'm noticing that the guitar line has a minor feel and you never hit the 3-draw natural, even over the 1 chord. Is that right? You can't do the 3rd of the scale...
