    That is a really creative open D tuning (0:34 – 0:58) DADF#BA! The planet waves chromatic tuner that he plugs right after probably tells you how a 1st string tuned down a fourth can support a slide….

    So many of these guitar tutorials hype themselves with their titles and they’re usually a disappointment or are confusing or over elaborate.
    This one lives up to it. Really good lesson. That guy has magic in his fingers!

    Correction: The 2nd string is tuned down to A (not B) and the first string is tuned down to D (not A)

    great lesson.

    Holy crap… I was taught by this guy last year at a blues guitar course!

    Needless to say, he was hilarious.

    Hahaha . . . this guy is making me want to play slide so bad.

    I’m a decent lead guitarist, but I’ve always had ridiculous trouble with slide. The whole L-shape concept makes things about a hundred times easier, best slide instructional I’ve seen!

    awsome. a lot of good info in a short video. do you have to set the strings (action) especially high compared to non-slide playing?
