Slide Guitar Lesson Part 8 - Standard Tuning

In this series Brian presents a comprehensive review of electric slide guitar for those new to the technique and genre. Theres a heavy influence on proper technique throughout and the series focuses on treating slide guitar as a separate instrument rather than just an afterthought of standard guitar playing. Brian will teach you how to change your way of thinking for a new approach to slide guitar. The videos focus on proper left and right hand technique, how to achieve good intonation, open tunings, string muting, equipment and slide choices, vibrato, Duane Allmans style, and the influence of modern players like Ben Harper and Derek Trucks. Here youll find those famous slide licks from the Fillmore East finally slowed down and competently taught. But youll also learn how to play slide in standard tuning thus creating a whole new dynamic to your playing. Most importantly, Brian gives you the tools youll need to start transcribing slide parts on your own to hit the ground running. Be the envy of players everywhere! Get more gigs! Learn to play slide!

@bananafightwood

Hmm. none that I recall.  just that old guitar straight into a Tweed Champ.

I'm diggin' the moon shirt. Are you interested in hot rods too? I have always thought that the best music was produced before 78' and the best cars produced were before 72'. Fast cars and git-ars. That's how I live and I'm a youngster. I'm just picking up on the knowledge of the guys before me and god damn, they were good.

@TheColourfullUs

I love your guitar! You don't see many SG juniors around.

@ShaneMacgowanFan93

you're the first to notice that. yeah, it's a great old guitar, thanks. It's a '62, the year before Gibson ran out of their stash of old mahogany.

I'm 15 now and I'm considering buying a 1966 dodge charger. I think as long as I have a real steel speed machine and an old guitar, I'm one happy kid. Thanks for replying too.
