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. |

Hi, Derek ... I'm not sure why you think that some things are allowed and some not. If it sounds good, do it. Period. Do whatever it takes to make the sound you want to hear.

Hi Derek,
What Kirk says is right. You know when you hit a note that sounds bad, follow your heart (ear and feelings). Slide guitar.....more than any other style is all about "feeling" and "control". There are no rules... its a wild style that encompasses everything from beating on the strings, to sliding and shaking vibrato. Sliders cant even agree on one tuning!!  We are a crazy bunch who all love music and musical noises..

Although I do have a teacher and hes been teaching me to play delta blues I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to do anything stupid LOL.
