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. |

Would this guitar do well for slide?

I can get a very good deal on it (about $80.00 off) I would change the pickups and do all that.
Would it suite well for slide?

looks like a great guitar for the money. I don't think you need 24 frets for slide. Humbuckers will give you some fat thick distortion if thats the sound your after. Remember almost any guitar is good for slide. At that price you can mod the hell out of it.

I don't see why it should be a problem. No rule says ya gotta play all the frets cause their there. The only downside i can see is if you want to swap necks your stuck with 24 fret necks or the scale length will get screwed up.
at less than 200 bucks you can't go wrong.
