Im sorta new to slide. Duane, Derek and Warren are the style I want to learn. Watched few of your videos on youtube but man I cant seem to get it! Mine sounds nothing like yours! ( Yes Im in open e tuning)
66 Vibrolux. Thanks.
What amp are you using? Sounds great, ur lesson is great too by the way.
thats cool i got a strat in open g and enjoy it i want an sg and plan to get one soon
Thanks. I’ve had mine set up and strung with .11s. This SG will never see standard tuning as long as I own it.
if your guitar is set up for it properly then the neck wont bend or have any problems
so this is a Duane Allman style lick?
I’ve had mine with .011s on it in open e tuning for many years now and have never had any problems.
Is it safe to keep a SG in open E for extended periods? im using .10s
im looking into getting a vintage vs6 and ive heard nothing but good things about them. I would like to know what string gauge you use and your action string height. any suggestions?
The ones I have are tapered. .
Does the Mr. B’s Bottleneck have any radius to it? I’ve noticed that some "wine bottle" slides are curved.
No problem.
thank you very much dude! gonna work on that. =)
Also, you can let the fleshy bit of your hand, to rest on the strings in order to eliminate that "jangly" sound. Thats how I do it.
I mean your middle finger on the first string, and the index finger on the second. Sorry.
Mute the strings with your right hand by placing your thumb in a diagonal position across the strings except those you want to sound. So an example would be: your index and middle finger on the first and second string respectively and the thumb muting the other 4 strings. As for the left hand, dampen the strings by placing your fingers in a vertical fashion across the strings(that means the fingers behind your slide).Of course, you can get a diff sound without damping your left hand.
Perhaps do you have this video in spanish or any form to traslate it?
Greetings.
tasty…. ;9)
What a great selection to put together for a crash course with advanced tastiness to aim for! I’ve been jamming around slide on my own for a little while, have good hand control and vibrato, but was looking for a perfect lesson to get me out of my self-hack hit-and-miss rut — this was perfect! I swear if a beginner/intermediate just learns to master this set of licks and phrases — you can go anywhere afterwards confidently improv-ing ( and improving).
Yes there are differences. Thicker ones sound bigger, but may be harder to play. Try out a bunch and find one that fits you the best. I use Mr B’s Bottleneck slides.
hey john, are there differences between the thickness of the slide? i have one thats really thick and my friend has one thats really thin, which i prefer more because its easier for my finger to fit in (thats what she said) + easier to maneuver – but does that have an effect on the tone?
didnt he do dreams and mountain jam in standard?
my latest tune is in open e! stop by for a listen! Great playing by the way!
