Voodoo Child

Voodoo Child is a signature electric guitar showcase by Stevie Ray Vaughan from his 1984 album Couldn't Stand The Weather. The track features Vaughan's iconic blues-rock tone and virtuosic fretwork, making it essential study material for players developing their lead technique and expressive bending style.

  • Vaughan's version became a blues-rock classic, showcasing his distinctive tone and aggressive vibrato technique.
  • The song demonstrates advanced pentatonic scale work and string bending techniques crucial for blues guitar mastery.
  • Released during the height of the 1980s blues revival, it helped revitalize traditional blues playing in rock music.

SRV's heavily worn '63 'Number One' with thick .013-.058 strings and responsive single-coils defined his expressive, dynamic tone. The guitar's worn frets and responsive pickups let him control saturation purely through picking attack and volume knob, a cornerstone of his finger-driven style.

SRV used the TS9 as a clean boost with minimal drive, maxing the level to push his cranked tube amps into heavier saturation while adding midrange focus. This approach preserved his dynamic control and kept the tone transparent, letting his fingers shape every nuance of sustain and breakup.
