I did a slide version of Auld Lang Syne a few years back on my old Strat. I did a nylon string backing first, then overdubbed the electric. It’s also in Dropped D tuning, like the new lesson. I tried all those open tunings and I love them too, but for sheer versatility and ease of integrating it into normal playing, Dropped D can’t be beat. If you’d like to learn more about playing slide in Dropped D, I did a whole DVD on the subject … Dropped D and Standard tuning (which are the same, of course, other than the bass string). You can read more about the DVD here – http://www.bottleneckguitar.com

Happy New Year, everyone!!
