~Authentic BottleNeck Slide Guitar~ This is the sound of Jesse James' hideout in 1871

To play great sounding Folk or Blues music you don't need a dobro or resonator or special guitar, there is no need for a special slide, and you don't need some special theory or training or manuals.......watch as I as I play some 1870's American Folk music with a bottle neck...perhaps if you rode up on the Jesse James' hide out you'd hear this music coming from thier back porch????
If you want to learn more, visit http://www.3-string-guitar.com/ and learn everything about cigar box guitars ....or just Google Red Dog Guitars.

This guitar also sounds the way it does because it has an internal pickup, there is nothing at all wrong with a magnetic pickup or humbucker, I do use them sometimes...but you will always sound modern and never really achieve that vintage sound with one.

This pickup is made by JJB electronics, it is leaps and bounds better than any other cigar box guitar pickup in the world...belive me I am not blowing smoke, ...just go back, hit the play button and listen for your self....if you build or want to play cigar box guitar or acoustic guitar head on over to his website, the 20 or 30 bucks you spend will make you 10 times happier than any other pickup....there is nothing wrong with soldering or homemaking a radio shack buzzer pickup or converting a piezo, that's totally fun!!!... but if you want to reach back in time, you need something made specifically for great sound...it's up to you, it's just a few dollars for a great sounding guitar...it's all about the tone!

Is this guitar tuned to standard tuning or open alternate tuning ?

[johnmcnair]

@rolynstone48 mostly made up open style tuning...theres nothing standard about it :-)

[gutenschneider]

When a piezo is in an amp, will it have feedback on distortion?

[johnmcnair]

@gutenschneider yeah, but if you direct record you will not have any problems...also use headphones!

[Godzilla949]

is this on a 3 string or a normal guitar?

[johnmcnair]

@Godzilla949 Its the guitar playing in the video..its a three sting,

I could sit here all year and listen to you play. You remind me of Harry Manx. Do you have any stuff I can download to listen to away from YouTube? I just find this incredibly relaxing.

Parts of it remind me of the telemovie they did of Stephen King's 'The Stand'.

Thanks for letting everyone share you love of music.

[KOmaSHOOTER]

reminds me on starcraft 2, it's the same kind of music

[Unrealkillcamz]

It sounds Like Red dead redemption music, like the west cowboy gun duel music, I love that so much <33

[superbong69]

Straight from the ancient fountain, the source of Rock n Roll.
