I love this tune. I used to accompany a friend on clarinet on it before he passed away. The Duke Robillard version that the OP links to is really nice.
Here’s my attempt on solo guitar. I’ve been doing a lot more gardening than practicing lately, so it’s rough. I’ll try to work on finger mechanics and clean it up.
It's been awhile since i last logged in here, but there's a strange synchronicity in that i was just playing
'If I Had You' a couple of days ago, and here it is as this month's standard...
and so, off to the shed i will head, since there are still a few days left in the month!!!
In any case, here's a quick 'baseline' recording, playing the melody and changes from memory, and
without the benefit of my 2nd cup of am coffee:
Hopefully it will get a little better...

Hi!
Sometimes it's possible to fill gaps in the melody with another melody.
Cheers, Mikko

Thanks for the reply.
The one Guild I'm interested in is the Starfire III Special with the Dynasonics pickups. Best of both worlds to me since I much prefer the cutaway and it has a Bigsby, which I...
Hey guys thank you very much for all your replies.
I am leaning towards position 2. I also bought the Dunlop straplock and will ask the tech to install it.
Will do NGD!

I love Ben Webster. The Holiday/Webster sessions with Barney Kessel on guitar is a legendary album. So much inspiration in there and Barney's performance is stellar, very melodic guitar playing.

Actually, the entire 4 bars could be played in the first position if you use open strings but it may sound country especially if you're playing a Tele. :pig:
Unfortunately I can't notate open strings with the Chord Writer app I have, but the top strings are open, so all the chords I posted, except for two, contain the 5th of the chord: the open G string....
The OP's question is voicings of #11's with the 5th. I gave one example.
There are others but the chord charts you posted seem to omit the 5th. Also I don't see any open strings in the charts.
