BluesShredder(Mary had a little lamb)
Ok i checked the tune out and he's useing rakeing,bends,
hammer-on double stops plus useing his old claw style,
finger-style= useing the index finger for a partial bar,
in a locked position covering 1st 2th 3rd stings 11th,
fret Eb=his tuning.
Right Hand Claw style below:
Ok now you do the same in standard tuning using KEY=E
Only while holding the locked position use your pick,
for G string then third finger for high E string.
then try squeezeing the 2 strings to gather at the same time this is an old claw style which alot of old jazz,
players used years ago.
Anyway while useing the claw finger style useing your,
locked position squeeze G and E string for one beat,
then use your third finger on the G string at 14th fret,
one beat,G string at 15th fret one beat,G string 14th fret,
then your back to locked position for last beat.
Repeat this fast and you got it.
Hope this helps or is what you wanted?
