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. |

You need a heavier more distorted tone to give it some body. It needs some feel. Vibrato, room to breath. That comes with practice and lots of it. Record it again in 6 months or a year.
The notes are sounding cleaner. Your muting has improved. Keep practicing.
