The Resonator Blues

A bit of slidin' on my Michael Palm resonator to a backing track from Stand Alone Blues. I'm in dropped D tuning, using one of my custom made heavy brass slides.

If you'd like to learn more about playing slide in standard and dropped D tunings, visit my site http://www.bottleneckguitar.com where you can also order one of these beautiful slides. If you want to know how to make melody like this without once thinking 'scale' or 'mode' or 'pentatoninc', visit my other site http://www.thatllteachyou.com

Thanks for listening!

Beautiful sound. Is this mic'ed up? or plugged in with a magnetic pickup or an active piezo sort of system. I want to buy a dobro, but they advised me to buy one with a pickup, because it will not be loud enough for a live situation, and it will have feedback.

Thanks! It's mic'ed up.

Nice, do you ever use open tunings?

[planetalk]

No, not any more. I just stick to standard or dropped D.

Gotta love the sound of a resonator being played in slide tuning, when it's being played right with feeling.

Awesome piece of playing man, big thumbs up from a fellow blues guitarist and hopefully I can get some new stuff recorded soon.

I think that it sounds a bit more like country, still it was good, well done.
