Fourteen Carat Mind Fills?

Richard Sinkler · From: aka: Rusty Strings -- Missoula, Montana

My 70 year old brain is having a hard time figuring out the chorus fills to Fourteen Carat Mind. Can anyone shed some light?

The fills in question happen around 00:59 and 02:09

If my 53 year old brain remembers without sitting at my guitar, if playing key of F, I think going to the 5(C) on fret 20 strings 4 & 5, then to fret 15 pedals down, then fret 13 pedals down, then fret 11 A/F then strings 5&6 w/A pedal, then slide to 12, then 13 for the 6m. I think. Lol
Btw, when sliding up to 6m, strike strings 5&8 at fret 11 with A/F and let off F lever as you slide to fret 12 to 13.

Richard, after sitting down at guitar, it’s fret 20 pedals up, 18 pu, 15 pd, 13 pd, 11 A/F, then you can either hit 5&6 W/A pedal and walk to fret 13, or 5&8 A/F. Not sure if that’s how Sonny played it but it works for me. Hope that helps.
Also you can start at 15th fret with strings 3&4 but I think 4&5 at 20 sounded more authentic to the record to me.
