There's many lessons on youtube, but some details needed further clarification so I tried to get as close as possible as how Jimi Hendrix played the riff on the record.

Tuning is E standard for your learning convenience, we all know the original is in Eb.
Thanks for leaving your thoughts down in the comments!
I've been playing this song for 15 years. That was by far the best tutorial I've ever seen on it. You really did capture the most subtle aspects of it and gave a clear explanation of what's happening. Thank you so much for this!
Thanks, appreciate that
Agree with you brother you most have a lot feeling to play it by the way I learned shine on you crazy diamond it seems easy is not to hard to play it but if you don’t add the feeling forget about will sound totally different i used to play the song without the felling it was not satisfactory until i did it I heard the fruits
so true,by far the best
Yes, indeed, masterclass!
Same here. It's no cakewalk.
The more I dwelve into Hendrix playing the more I realize I have so much to learn . The subtle details just makes the playing more beautiful .. great lesson!
It’s absolutely true, and thank you
Crazy thing is Jimi can't read music at all, this is like his freestyle 👍
Wow! Never heard that tune so eloquently played. You have an artist's ear and a teacher's heart. Thank you my brother for making it possible for me to learn this tune a little at a time.😊
That’s really nice Bernard, thank you!
Absolutely outstanding guitar player and teacher. Second to none when it comes to playing and teaching this song's intro. AS GOOD AS IT GETS!!! WELL DONE!!!👍👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
cheers!
It literally took me a year to make enough time to get through your video, but I’m proud to say that I FINALLY feel very good about my progress and absolutely could NOT do it without you. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I’m really glad it helped you 🎸
I think even Hendrix didn't know the right way to play it, because he always played it in different ways in live shows.
He plays in feelings not thinking the notes
He did that to keep from getting bored with the repetition of playing it the same way every time.
Jimmy page too...this is PERFORMANCE
He played all of his songs different live
jimi played however his heart felt at the time.
Finally a guy who knows how to play and teach this right. Thank you Jesus
Just WOW. Aside from Paul Davids, who we all know is phenomenal I've never seen a song so concisely deconstructed, explained and taught. How you don't have 1M subscribers from this beautiful video alone is a mystery. Thank you for putting out such incredible work.
Cheers Drew
Finally,
Somebody who actually CAN teach and is WILLING to do it on youtube.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Thierry, appreciate that.
I can no longer bear to hear myself playing this version of Little Wing. I knew something was wrong but could not quite pinpoint them. Now this is the missing piece I've been searching for! Thank you so much for sharing. Time for me to re-learn this song. Subscribed!
Happy studying!
You simply nail it! Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent and your time on jimi's elegant masterpiece.
Respect for your understanding and infinite details on one of the greatest musicians we have had the honour to have witnessed in our lifetime, I’m sure you are correct in that he will be remembered as one of the classic’s a hundred years from now
Thanks Jeff, cheers
And,(And, to hear last, not to forget, I have finally played "little Wing", and, as it really is, thanks to this teacher, thank you !! 👍😁
I first started trying to learn this song in 1992 with a tablature book I bought at a record store. That is one hell of a way to try to learn a Hendrix Song lol. The way you play it sounds so beautiful. Thanks for helping me finally figure that song out.
cheers man
such an unbelievable piece of music. When I first started playing guitar I remember listening to this and just being completely blown away. that was 28 years ago and it still amazes me.
This is the perfect lesson. You' ve played it like no other. Not many can hear the gentleness and dynamics of Jimi. I hear the same as you, but can't play it like you. I'm working on that! Greetings from Argentina
Thanks a lot! Yes dynamics are really crucial, you got it man 💪🏻🎸
Easily the best instructional video and breakdown of this great rock anthem I’ve come across. Great closeups, sound, and kudos for playing it slowly and methodically, and breaking it down rhythmically! 10/10 ⭐️
Glad it was helpful! cheers
This was simply amazing. I have listened to this song more times that I can remember and I can pick up straight away the small differences people make when playing this song. The biggest compliment I can make is I closed my eyes and I swear I thought it was Jimi himself playing. You picked up ever nuance, every subtle detail. The song is genius in that regard and you my friend are incredible.
Thanks JJ I share your passion for all the nuances, nobody can play it like Jimi ut we can sure learn from his craftmaship
This is really the best one on utube!!!
By far! And this guy gets it across to me !!!!
And that's harder than the song 😂
I've have Jazz Masters and played for 35 years..... and I have to say "Alberto! - Congratulations you are the best teacher!" Thankyou!
Thanks Josh!
Imagine being able to write a song that awesome...
Did anyone else stop by for a lesson and leave a subscriber? I sure did!
Thanks :D
Heck yeah, great teacher. Thank you for doing this.
Yep!
Ciao Alberto. All the details and dynamics you described make this tutorial exquisitely helpful. Looking forward to see more of these lessons. Thanks a lot
Fausto thank you, ciao!
Finally a guy that knows how to teach !!!❤
This video is saved! Thank you for taking the time to share this.
Wow : il miglior tutorial sulla prima parte di L. W. pubblicato su YT negli ultimi 14 anni😀👏👏👏👏👏
Ahah grazie
Definitely the best tutorial around, great! Dynamics, the most important part, are explained super clear.
Would be great if you could post rest of the song, I bet it would be spectacular as well :)
I will at some point Ivan, thank you!
Yeah that was the best tutorial for Little Wing. Probably not for guitarists that haven't been playing for long, who really need to see the string fingering super clearly. I loved how you broke down the rhythmic and dynamic nuances, especially explaining when it goes from straight to swing feel. I got a lot out of this video and will be watching it again. Fantastic tutorial, because you talk about it like a real musician and guitarist who has unpacked what Jimi is doing in this track. Thankyou!
You are right, it is intended for intermediate players. Thanks !
Thank you Alberto for making this one, its the best tutorial version out there and helps us learn a lot .... i understand it must have taken a lot of your time to prepare and record this one.... so thank you again for the help.
Soooo helpful! Like a sonic sculptor, your lesson helps reveal the beautiful sculpture within these blocks of notes. I'm finally getting it to sound right. Thank you!
That's a really nice comment, thanks James
One of my favorite! Such a great tutorial, I am disappointed that I didn't find your channel until just recently, and I cannot believe this video doesn't have a million views!
Thanks Paolo, welcome!
I hacked this song up a long time ago and now coming back to it again. Yours sounds much much better. Thank you very much!
Dude, this is absolutely the most accurate and somehow humble? tutorial, forget of this song (it is, though), but on the whole internet.
You sir, are a great teacher; thank you so much!
Cheers Trevor!
Wow. Like wow. I have searched for this. Simply the best lesson out there. How come you don’t have more followers. You rock. Beautiful tone also.
Thanks man, appreciate that. I just recently started giving youtube more attention. Cheers!
This is really beautiful and excellent. Thank you so much for taking so much time to do this for us!
Thanks Bob, appreciate
I truly love you Alberto, this is amazing.
Thank you SO MUCH for this. I always found Hendrix 'something from outer space' which I could never copy as a humble guitarist. Your clear video makes me love the guitar even more, suddenly producing such sweet sounds which I could never have imagined me making them. Again: THANK YOU.
cheers!
Great work, Alberto! It's about 95% the same as the way I've played it for decades, but you've filled in some gaps, not to mention played it more fluidly and faithfully than I have.
Looking forward to checking out more of your stuff.
Glad to hear that Jeff, cheers
Wow awesome detail and patience. No rushing it. You are a legitimate teacher.
Cheers Carl
@@albertolombardimusic You remind me of another guitar great. Paul Gilbert. You look like his Italian brother.
You spent the time to show the world how this deserves to be played. Thank you for the best tutorial of Little Wing on youtube, sir.
Thanks Glenn
the thing i really love about kimi hendrix is that you can really play the way you like and add your own licks and stuff to the song. you just get so much freedom with jimi and thats what i love about his music.
Thanks for taking the time to do this. It's very helpful. You are very skilled and we appreciate you sharing.
Thank you!
This is by far the best tutorial I've ever seen.
Cheers Jerry
Un tutorial preciso e dettagliato. Meriteresti di essere pagato in pepite d'oro.
i love jimi hendrix` music like a child, thank You so much Alberto!! Your music is wonderful too!!
Thank you for your gift Alberto Lombardi
great instructions and you enjoy and feel the song
Thanks for the backtracking too. I think it's great there are people like you who take the time to share their skills with others
Such a nice comment, thank you Daniel!
Thank you for the time you put on this great lesson. Everything was realy explained in detail and perfection. Cheers from Portugal!!!
Thank you very much, ciao!
This kind of detailed lesson is nowhere to be found on youtube. Great job including all the details about dynamics and timing etc. man! Discovered some things I did not know about this song
Thanks man, it’s fun to find out how much these things are deep!
I have been playing this intro wrong since I was a teenager and I'll be 68 in a week. When I started to learn this, there was no internet, tape recorders were reel to reel and expensive, but every house had a record player - so I learned what I thought was right. Learned errors are hard to ignore. This is the best and clearest instruction on exactly how to play this tune properly.
This makes me happy 😊 this intro is a treasure, as is the song. Understanding it is the key to so much growth and improvement on the instrument.
Great tutorial especially because its nicely split into parts. Finally got this riff down right. Thanks so much
Awesome!
WOW! Incredible lesson!
As others have stated, this is by far the best lesson
I have ever seen on this Beautiful Classic Song by Hendrix…’Little Wing’. Thank you so much…. This Lesson not only helps me to understand the nuances of this song, it helps me to better understand the importance of nuances with my playing in general! Thanks again
Nice job. The best I’ve seen so far. I’ve been learning it for over 50 years. A couple little things you did I was missing. Thanks
Go Dana!
Thank you for taking the time to bring up the people trying to better their technique. I have spent all afternoon watching and re-watching it and taking this lesson A note at a time. You really do this song justice and you serve your audience well sir. thank you again for the time all the best to you. And yes I did subscribe looking forward to more. Be well Alberto
Awesome, stay at it!
Great video. Very helpful. I agree that the nuances are very important to recognize and understand when it comes to learning a song like Little Wing even if you choose to play it differently.
Cheers Peter, definitely a great learning experience!
I like this tutorial a lot. I especially love your teaching style. All the subtle details, for us who like to do it ad best as we can. No extraneous details, for us who have very little time for playing.
Thanks Michele
Great, finally the good one. The rythm parts explanations helps a lot.
Thanks for this, extremely well done,I love your attention to the details, the sound is beautiful truly
Thank you, glad it helps!
Excellent tutorial. You cleared up several things that I was missing. Thanks very much.
Thanks Roger!
Absolutely brilliant tutorial - especially when it comes to the timing and hand positions.
Absolutely brilliant!
Thanks, appreciate
Outstanding lesson, Alberto - and your English is crystal clear. Many thanks.
Cheers George
Your lesson is amazing!
One of the best guitar lesson in CZcams!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed!
Thank you so much! I learned this song but couldnt understand what I missed... You covered it all!
Thanks Thomas
Hello Alberto,
you are so right! Thank you so much for your time and effort to make this lesson!
I've been searching for a very long time for such a Video - but now I found.
Best Little Wing-Tutorial on youtube!!
wonderful detail in your lesson alberto
The best Little Wing lesson ever. You nailed it ! all the details are there ! Beautiful.
Thank you very much 🎸
@@albertolombardimusic youre welcome ! any chances for rest of the song ?
@@szwagierchuck4398 it’s possible, in the the future 🎸🎸
@@albertolombardimusic awesome, cant wait. I have subscribed after seeing this video immediately. Will enjoy rest of your content now. For such full lesson of little wing made by you i sure many would like to pay $ and ill be the first one to buy it.
@@szwagierchuck4398 thank you man, I’ll take the suggestion seriously ☺️
I’ve been thinking out my subscriptions to “learn how to play” channels but Little Wing is why I picked up the guitar again and your run through is fantastic so I’m a subscriber now. It’s the little details that make this song what it is and so I’m greatful for your making this video. I have a few questions like the tuning and your amp settings.
Tuning is standard for ease of learning, sound is just a secret one overdrive into a blues deluxe. Thank you 💛
@@albertolombardimusic thank you.
Hi, thank you for such detail! Truly appreciate it!
Seen many youtubers, you are the only one that get's it right!
Cheers!
Excellent work!
Thank you for this great tutorial, it’s exactly what I was looking for
Awesome, cheers!
Absolutely beautifully performed and explained,
Cheers Larry
Absolutely loved this in every one; the song, where and how embellishments are played, Mr Lombardi’s very specific explanations - and most importantly clarified the straight/swing feel of Jimi’s remarkable style! Rock on Alberto! Jimi would be honored to hear you! 🎸👏
Thank you Sally!
Great lesson!
Fantastic Sir I appreciate your attention to detail and I have to say I believe your transcription of this piece is the most accurate one I have seen. I am looking forward to seeing more of your Content!
cheers Wes
@@albertolombardimusic Because you're a fan of Jimi I'm wondering if you know about Frank Marino from Canada? I would love to see you post one of his tunes. I especially love his strange universe album. Cheers Alberto!
@@wesweber5718 thanks for the tip, for tutorials I’m focused on staples of modern music, but I’m curious anyway I’ll check it out 💛☺️
Thanks so much for this tutorial I’m very grateful to you. I find this piece so magical and unearthly, it’s strange, dark, and so beautiful. To me it feels like something that isn’t written and played, but music which flows effortlessly from another place or dimension and Jimmy is the conduit that the music flows through. It is so different, I love it, thank you 🙏🏼 😊 🎸
Great lesson .....I said out loud “Im liking this “ ...subscribed and added to my favourites to study later 🏴👌
ahah that's great thanks!
Ive been playing little wing for years , decided to watch this cuz I was bored. See if I could learn anything to improve. So even that first Hammer on from A to b, where you described his back and fourth between bests. I always felt like I was playing it wrong, something about my timing was off but you describing his fluctuation and how he sped up to create excitement finally clicked for me. Thank you.
Really happy it helps! Cheers
What a great clean and awesome playing, man! Cheers!
Thanks Andrei
definitely the most accurate version, and its really helped me, so thanks! Just wish I had a bigger thumb..
Thanks 🙏
Nice teaching straight to the point and makes perfect sense 👍👍👍👍👍👍thanks dude subscribed
Thanks Chris!
You are great teacher Sir!
I’ve been playing this song since I THOUGHT I learned it by ear in middle school a few decades ago! It’s SO much harder to RElearn Jimi than it is to do it right the first time!
I guess it's true for most everything. Cheers!
This tutorial has been great, thanks
Superb playing and an excellent video. Great channel mate. 👍🏼🎸
Thank you Carlos 🎸🎸💛
Your playing is awesome and your teaching is too! Wish I discovered you sooner! You are seriously pro level Alberto! Thanks for helping us average guys out

Some people on you tube are good tutors, some are good guitarists- you sir, are both. Very clear, good pace, well explained. I agree with others, one of the best.
Thank you John I really appreciate that
Nice Job Alberto Bravo
Well done brother...love how you break it down 🎸🤘
cheers man, thanks!
Flawless playing and sweet sweet tone.
Thank you !
The best sounding version on a tutorial that I've heard for now, good job.
Nicely done Alberto
Alberto: This was the most enjoyable guitar tutorial video I have watched. You did an excellent job of demonstrating and explaining the nuances of Jimi's most beautiful piece of work. For me Little Wing is the Holy Grail of Jimi Hendrix music and is a perfect example of how 'less is more'. I still have my 1961 Stratocaster from when I was a kid and I am now 66 years. So, it is needless to say that I have always wanted to master this song and do this guitar justice. One of the parts that has eluded me all these years is that odd "C chord" with the A note slipped in there. I never really knew why it sounded that way even though I typically have a very good ear for picking things out. YOU figured it out and it has brought me closer to my goal of understanding this short but wonderful piece of music. Thank you for sharing your talent and skills.
Thank you, a comment like yours is really the reason why I do these tutorials, so we can share our passion for the details. Thank you for that! And man I envy your 61 strat..
Clinton Carrington You pretty much nailed those comments about Alberto kid. He's really good and that's possibly my favorite Hendrix song. I just heard this talented teacher a few minutes ago. I had to comment on your 61 Strat and your 66 years on the planet. I have a killer 61 Strat that I love and I turned 67 a couple of months ago. Cheers mates
Cheers Ed
@@eblake021 Thanks, Ed. I could write a book about what this guitar has been through with me over the past 51 years. What a ride it's been. This is my baby and oldest friend all at the same time. I'm sure you know that feeling. Happy New Year.
Absolutely spot with the 100yrs in the future comment. Fabulous lesson too. thanks
Thanks a lot
Terrific lesson.
Best version of such a tutorial for Little Wing so far!
Cheers!
great channel...subscribed...killer strat tone alberto!!
Thanks brother 💛🎸
Complimenti , eseguita alla perfezione , stesso suono di Jimi ,mancava solo il campanellino della versione in studio . Grande 😀👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Vedi non c'ho pensato al campanellino 😀
the best tutorial I have ever seen on Little Wing! Very clear and correct! Thanks for sharing and greetings from Latvia! Marko
Hey Latvia! Wonderful
