Yesss, great lessen! Love it! Your tuning is a little bit flat, isn't it?

Sebastiaan

Great lesson! Playing the blues during quarentine feels just about perfect.

Tom Tetley

This is excellent! I love slide (not that I'm any good at it, mind) Robert Johnson Terraplane Blues, obviously Crossroads Blues and Stones in my Passway are probably my favourite slide riffs. On a side note. How did you learn to sing? Fantastic insight in to the slide technique! Thank you!!

Andrew MacPherson

Well, I'm willing to bet there aren't many folk out there learning slide guitar with a dismantled bulldog clip, but that's where I'm at for now! I've also chickened out of open G down to open D with a different tutorial... my Takamine is my best guitar, not my crappiest. :-) But as soon as I've got to grips with open D (which is suiting my lousy technique better at the moment) I'm going to be back to this tutorial in a flash. Thom, as ever, you are a genuine inspiration... though I really didn't need the distraction. I started listening to you with your superb version of 'Dancing Queen' (a song I never had any desire to play until I heard your version) and I still can't play that properly. I'm getting there though, slowly! :-)

Mark Kelly

Amazing how you pack so much information into such a short video. Not confusing, we just need to practice.

Guitar Pilgrim

thx Tom! I never really learned to sing, as you can tell! I just do what feels right and hope for the best!

Guitar Pilgrim

thx Andrew, you know Takamine make great guitars! the one I have I bought very cheap and is a bit worn out. Good luck with playing Abba!!

Tom Tetley

You certainly fooled me. Grewt voice and great playing! You've inspired me to tune the olde guitar to open G. Trying some Robert Johnson ! Thanks again !

Gary Richardson

Okay, you confused the hell out of me on this one because your guitar pro file says it's in Open G but it's not, I had to go back to the youtube video and saw that it's in Open A (E A E A C# E). Awesome lesson though.

Peter Hild

Open A and G are essentially the same, ie interchangeable, just like open D and E ( Elmore rocks!)
