That’s actually not a fail, but really helpful. Open G tuning has three D strings. That would get awfully confusing even for an expert guitarist as he verbally explains everything.

Fantastic, but i need some tips about the right hand. That’s the only thing I think is missing in this video to be perfect.

I play a Fender Strat and the question I have is what size strings are recommended to play slide guitar?

shame this turns out to be a non lesson, and more about his wiggly prowess.

Do mean damaging the neck? It messes with it a little, but not too much. My Gibsons, my homemade Strat, and most of my other guitars handle it fine. If you’re guitar is well constructed, it shouldn’t have a problem. The only one of mine that can’t take it is a cheap pawn shop buy that has problems anyways

Hey man ! I’ll stick to english because I’m not sure if all you guys speak german but what you’re looking for is called ‘Bottleneck’ (should cost about 10-20 €) but can actually use the neck of a glas bottle too.. Try thomann.de dude! They’re fast as hell and they really have everything at a reasonable price -shipping is free if you spend more than 20€ and so on…. . Hope this helps !

Am I the only one who cant seem to get his hands on such a slide tube (or whatever you want to call them) to save his life? Or is that just because I live in Switzerland?

I know what an open tuning is -.-", but I was wondering why he called the key of "Open G" and not just "G", I mean: "Open G" is the name of the tuning, not the key, isn’t it?
