While that sounds excessive, it is usually 10-20 min per day.

Now it is at about 90%.
Adding different picking and fills to sound smooth is also about 80-90%.
I have watched EVERY youtube instructional video many many times.
At least I am not tired of the song yet.  |
One of my all time favorites.
I still play it, pick in hand, because I like the feel of it so much as a strumming song, and also to practice electric.
In the original recording, the 12 string guitar is tuned to open G. (Additional guitars are in standard, and one is in Nashville tuning.)
Just strumming the tune using chords in open G tuning really brings out Keith’s signature “sound” much more so than in standard. Definitely give that a go if you haven't already.
One of the all time great Rolling Stones songs, and another gem in Keith’s stash(imo).
