  1. Very good lesson for anyone wanting a basic slide guitar lesson. Had to share on my FB. Love ya man.

  2. Thanks for doing this in a clear cut instructional format. I love the way you play and the earlier videos just made me jealous. Thanks again for being generous with your knowledge.

  3. Thanks yo. Have and fell Heart is the most important thing we humans do.

  4. To tell you the truth i rarely take my own advice and don’t mute the strings. I mean if you were me would you take your own advice?

  5. ok. you mean how it is tuned and stuff? And how high the strings? And what strings? That stuff?

  6. Man, I love the sound you get. Regarding the muting behind the slide – If you are over the wither the 12th or 7th fret (the harmonic nodes) and you lift your left hand fingers up so that you aren’t muting the strings behind the slide, you get this lovely open sound, almost like a 12 string. Just something you and other watchers might enjoy. 🙂

  7. This is a very good lesson. Simple but covers most of what a person needs to know to play the blues. The rest is all heart and key licks in my opinion but heart is where its at.
