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.

  So I saw the Allman Brothers last week...

I saw them at the Beacon Theatre on their next to last show this year. This was my second time expirencing them and once again, they were amazing.
I do have a question though:

Before "Hoochie Coochie Man" Derek and Warren always do some trades right before the song starts. As you may know Derek does not use any effects what-so-ever, and yet when he was playing his part, there was he was effect. I am 100% positive he did no have his feet on any pedals and he was not doing volume swells with his controls. He was just sustaining a note with his slide around the 12'th fret.


How can this be?
He uses no effect pedals and yet there was wah, clear as day?

Perhaps there is guy behind the scenes adding the effects through the board? I remember seeing in a documentary once that ZZ Top's guitarists have sound guys twaeking everything, changing sounds on cue ...

How about something as simple as right hand pinkie rotating tone knob with the attack? An old Roy Buchannan trick. Very effective. Doesn't require much wrist movement when you are practiced at the technique. Its just one knob over from volume knob swells.
