How to Play Slide Guitar in Standard/Dropped-D DVD by Kirk Lorange
If you really want to spice up your playing, slip a slide over your pinkie and add it to your musical vocabulary. There's no need to re-tune your guitar to an open tuning, just stay in standard or lower that bass string down to D. Kirk shows you how in this 70 minute DVD, talking and playing you through the basics, vibrato, muting, playing single note lines, finding all the chord flavors (they're all there!) and mixing it all into one very neat hybrid style of playing guitar. To order or to find out more, click here. |

update:
OK, I've taken the leap... I'm doing a slide part for a cover tune, and I'm doing it in open G. Trying to, anyway.
I hope I have it figured correctly.
I - 12th fret
IV - 5th fret
V - 7th fret
????
...and tuning, low to high, is DGDGBD?
Is this right?

Yes that is open G. What cover tune are you trying to do?

Thanks, SlickCat...
There are four of us involved counting the singer, so it's still up in the air over which one of a couple of different tunes we will do. I have finals this week, so I'm just going to let them decide. Either song will be a learning experience for me.
I've been playing around with the open G tuning this afternoon and I do like it. It's going to take a couple of days to get acquainted with it, though.
