"Turnarounds" in open G

[piddlefish]

what kind of amp is that in the background... never mind - it's a kenmore

[neonbladedotcom]

@piddlefish Not sure of the brand, but it always seems to run really hot. It really cooks on my cover version of "Home on the range" too.

[piddlefish]

@piddlefish NEW subscriber - can't wait to see your version!

Very cool turnarounds. I'll be adding some of these to my arsenal! Thanks for sharing.

you make them a lot more complex than they are, simple licks

[johnnylebrun]

do you have tabs for this dude?

[horbergaren]

wow, well, i got a lot to learn

[ex0ja]

I desperately want to start playing slide guitar but figure I better get better at normal tuning etc. first. But at what level should I be before I start trying slide?

[RadiatorBoy]

its never too early to start experimenting with slide go for it

[Phobia017]

Nah, go straight to slide. it's never too early. open tunings are a totally different game, and they're a lot easier to work with from personal experience. Go for it.

[caralhosvosfodam]

The player counts the most. Not the guitar :)

[caralhosvosfodam]

Guitars don't quite make the guitarrist and this video proves it.

Well done =)

[neonbladedotcom]

Thanks man!

[orionmet]

[rickster1957]

He is cookin'

[silverlollipop]

Very helpful. What guitar are you playing? and strings. I like the sound

[neonbladedotcom]

Thanks, it's a cheap Dobro copy (Legend). D'addario medium-gauge strings

[BreinederIndy]

quit helpful besides the fact that you missed the slow part ;)

[ploukusa]

Great! Thanks for this, will help me when learning this tuning.

[1337kamikaze]

Whats the thing on your pinky.

[maximusv1]

Its called a super-glass-o-tube-a-rama. It's great for smacking the guitar with..

It's a Slide. ;)

[neonbladedotcom]

Was tryin' to get the worm out of a bottle of Mezcal one night back in the '70s, bottle broke and the damn thing's been stuck on my finger ever since.

[walkerchild69]

lol !! . . it worked out fine !

[corzocl]

Your new to slide, congrats! Take a listen to John Lee Hooker, Robert Johnson, Eric Sandrinas their to me my favorite slide guitarists.

[intrepidadmiralme]

I like the turn-arounds, nicely played, but they don't comprise much slide, just seems like regular turnarounds with a slide note at the end. :(

[Rubydoobiedee]

thanks for this

[limestick]

this is great.... 5 star..not enough open g tuition is shown on the u but i agree with choupek a little slower and front on camera shots would help me become a much better player... thanks for sharing with us all.....good man

[neonbladedotcom]

Thanks!

If this helps, the core of the 3 turnarounds I'm playing in this clip use the following chord shapes starting at the 3rd fret, then playing at the 2nd and first fret:

Turnaround 1:

index finger across 1st and 2nd strings

Turnaround 2:index finger on 4th string second finger on 2nd string, third finger on the 3rd string at the 4th fret( like a D chord shape in standard tuning).Turnaround 3:Index finger 6th string, second finger on the 4th string.

[choupek]

that's cool

can you do it slower?
