  • Isn't this just the same as normal sliding? Is there really any difference between legato slide and usual slide?

  • An ' 0' string is an open string. No fretting. It works the same for classical and electric guitars. Now learn to spell.

  • how do you slide from 0 to for example 8?

    how does that works?

  • cool guitar!

  • @mechajesus2000 im sorry that is the most ignorant thing i have ever heard anyone can and deserves any guitar they wish to play im a bass player for going on 5 months and i currently an using a 1979 usa made fender precsion bass whyyou ask cause i worked my ass off to get it. just because you own a piece of shit guitar dont mean someone you may be better then deserves less of a guitar.

  • @VertigoIvn i think slide down will be written like 15\13 with stroke down?

  • @Lunarmoonbase2 thank you!

  • @hanzimaster I've never seen that, but I would just start at fret 1 and slide it to 6. If it were say, the 'D' string, you could fret the 'A' string at fret 5, which is the same note as an open 'D', and then slide it to the 11th fret, which would equate to 'D' string 6th fret.

  • @Lunarmoonbase2 how do you slide from open string "0 fret" to, say, 6th fret?

  • @joakim456 no

  • No offense, but your musicians... don't deserve a Gibson SG... at all...

  • @andrestorp

    when u have normal slide u play first note and note where u slide but in legati slide u just play first than slide to another without picking it.
