Stevie Ray Vaughn Pride and Joy Tabbed by Vanhalen1 I haven't seen many Stevie tabs out there, and he has some great guitar songs. This song is farely hard, but with a little practice, you should get it down in no time. The intro is great for beginners, it sounds awsome. Tune down 1/2 step.

Any corrections are welcome. This song is pretty hard but with some practice, you should get the hang of it. This song would sound best on a Strat or any other blues guitar, cause that's what Stevie uses. Rock On Please Rate
