This is very close to how Dave plays it. There were a couple of chords I couldn't see
playing in the video, but I think this is a little more accurate than most of the other
I've looked at online.

David Gilmour - Where We Start (studio version)
On an Island

Gilmour uses a classic Gretsch Duo Jet using his fingers/thumb instead of a pick. I used my strat in the n/m
position and got a similar tone (no pick). Fairly clean (a little drive for sustain), I used a little reverb,
and a small amount of delay.

There is another version on here with the chords, this is the lead guitar. The solos are pretty
spot on, as are the fills. However, some of the fills could use some more improvisation.
