I was surprised at who was pretending, but can see the difference. It's like pop-blues in the second one, didn't have the feeling.

Well he did use a plastic Thumb pick and a metal finger pick on one finger....that gave him the attack you hear.....Clapton....well you would have thought he had learned travelling around with King in the USA.

Sorry, but not even close.

An ES-1 won't help my playing any. Like the Freddie King vid though. I'm a big Freddie King fan - literally. That's the one thing an ES-1 kit can help with, a big round guitar is slimming for a big round guitarist. Why do all the big big names have these large semi hollow guitars? It's because they'd make a Les Paul look like a ukulele.

I keep a couple of Rivieras in case I ever need to play in front of people... might need to get that SG double neck kit too...
