- čas přidán 6. 01. 2021
- Want a blues guitar lesson? Here is the resonator guitar tuning in the classic delta blues style of open G.
Beginners slide video here - • How To Play Blues Slid...
We’re looking at ‘Walking Blues’ with elements that will help with guitar lessons in the Son House, Robert Johnson and Rory Gallagher.
We then look at scales, old time backup on ‘Sitting On Top Of The World’ as well as a shuffle rhythm, a Keith Richards guitar style rundown and lastly some trick harmonics.
Played on the National Resophonic Tricone 1.5, 1929 Gibson L-1 and the 1931 National Triolian.

I did...
Very nice thank you for your time
Amazing how Robert Johnson was able to play with an element of percussion, bass, rythm and lead, simultaneous in his playing making it sound like more than one person is playing, way ahead of his time
He copied a lot of songs like Life Saver Blues by Lonnie Johnson which gave him the blueprint for having that facility.
He also was taught to play piano rudimentarily by his half brother so could translate that more complete style to guitar.
The two books by Bruce Cornforth and Annye Anderson do a great job of describing his life and explain how he got his style.
Dam Straight!
Extremely hard to do. I'm willing to work at getting this method down. A worth while endeavor! 👍🏻😉
Good lesson. I'm really glad to hear you name-checking Rory Gallagher! Under-appreciated master of electric and acoustic.
Great player!!
Excellent! B string tuned slightly flat is a great tip.
Makes all the difference!
love the guitar swapping breh so fun to pull out another axe and change up tone
Might as well get the use!!
A fantastic lesson and you have great teaching skills Martyn. Fabulous. Thank you
Thanks. Hope it all helps!!
Faint train sound was choice at the end of the first music definitely emotive.
🎯🎯
Thank you. I needed some inspiration and you have given me that. You're a good teacher. Thanks again!
A pleasure. Hope it opens some doors!
I mean this with the utmost praise, That MFr be spittin! I'm quite the beginner and have gotten a few great chops from this vid. I shall still devour every delicious nugget I can get from this video. Thanks !

Amazing content Martyn... much appreciated and good luck... gotta love the Delta blues
Hey Paul. Many thanks!!! It’s great to share this stuff. So many people have helped us learn what we do so it’s good to pass it on.
Thans you so much for this usefull lesson! I’ve learned so many licks in one hour, can not wait to dive in the rest of your video’s
Excellent! Hope it opens the doors!
Fantastic lesson! I'm just getting into slide guitar (and loving it). Other lesson vids seems to give really complicated licks. This gives me plenty of simple ideas ro play about wirh. Thank you!!!
Excellent. We just ease you in with ideas that hopefully open a few doors!
I've just watched with interest another one of your videos (How to play blues slide & bottleneck guitar). You've answered my previous question RE :- finger picks. Please disregard last post. Thanks again Martyn.......................
Really love your videos and your style. Thank you. Just got my first Resonator guitar and your videos really help. Keep it up.
Thanks. We’re here to help!
Beautiful guitar. I'm getting into playing open G blues now. I learned the open G from The Stones, though, of course.
It’s a great way in!!
Learned so much on this lesson 👍
Excellent! That’s what we want!! 🎼🎼🎼
Excellent lesson. Thank you.
A pleasure! Thanks!!
Very helpful, thank you. I just started learning to play slide and this helped a lot! Cheers from Canada!
Thanks! Hope it helps!
Love that Delta thing
Excellent! Hope it’s useful!
This was great :)
🫡
Very cool👍
🎼🎯🎼
Thank you great lesson looking forward to trying these licks out.
This will open some doors I hope! Good luck!!
Well done
Much appreciated!
Thanks Marten. Great stuff!
🎼🎯🎼
Hello! Thank you for this slide approach to the bottleneck that I have just followed to the letter with my triolian! Alex from France! Great thanks!
Hope it opens a few doors!
Great lesson
Thanks!! 🎯🎯
Love your style of music -- you are a great teacher -- keep up the lesson videos!
Thanks, that’s kind!!
Type in justin johnson 👍
Pretty much the best slide lesson for us faux slide players...thanks!
Hope it helps!! 🎯
@@TheWashboardResonators It does, hey a quick question, will it hurt my guitar neck in the long run to keep it in open G or E or do I need to put it back in standard right away when I'm done. I don't want to ruin my guitar. This is one of the reasons why I hold back on slide. Thanks again.
Parasta A-ryhmää! (that is like "Excellent! in Finnish) Great work! Both playing and teaching.
Thanks! Hope it helps!! 🎼🎯🎼
Man, I love this channel!
Hope it all helps! Thanks!
@@TheWashboardResonators Massively! I play blues harmonica, lately have gotten into guitar, standard acoustic/electric… However, just picked up a resonator, and wow! The Sound! I’ve been binging your videos, and your explanations and guides are top notch. Thanks!
hi. thx. a lot of good new inspiritations/tricks. great lesson. g
Excellent! Hopefully it helps!!
Awesome
Yeah yeah yeah!! 👌🏻👌🏻
Awesome I'm learning Resonator I feel in half the time thanks to your videos. The level of appreciation I have is fatter than that top string.
That’s amazing news. TBH we didn’t do many lesson videos but we’re starting to hear more good feedback like yours so will make more now! It’s great to help people!! 🎯
@@TheWashboardResonators well how you go really slow and really break each note down step by step while explaining what you're doing while you are helps tremendously and really has been the most help as far as slide tutorials go. Hoping to see some videos in the future with open D as well. Again thanks.
Thank you 😊
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
There’s a lot in this video. Great.
Loads and loads. Hopefully it helps!
WOW ..THANK YOOOOOOOO
Hopefully it opens a few doors!
Really appreciate the idea of using the same song to illustrate different player's styles. I just discovered this channel and I'm glad I did. Looking forward to more, thank you!
That’s kind. Thanks so much!!
U Be Bad Ass Bro!
I will go to market and look for the tablets that can make me play as good as you!🤣
Just kidding 👍🏻!
Great lesson...from a British guy! You sound like you were brought up in the Delta! 👍🏻
Thank you!
Ray, Boston Massachusetts
Thanks! Hope it helps!! 🎯🎼🎯
@@TheWashboardResonators Yes very much so! I'm 66 years old and saw the greats from the British Rock Invasion 🎸 on the Ed Sullivan show in the early 60s. Then over the course of the years in person as well. As you know ALL their music was inspired by the Delta Greats! I have seen almost every possible video on CZcams, 🤔 However you really captured the soul of the Delta! Really!! Unfortunately, using the open G tuning means having to learn the guitar ALL over again scales etc. The tough part is the slide and making it sound right and clean. Also, using the thumb for my base note and the index fingers on the higher strings. What exercise would you recommend to get this sound downpat? Baby steps! Again...Thanks!

Really enjoying this lesson Martyn. If you did a lesson breaking down how clapton plays walking blues on unplugged, you'd be my hero forever! Now that I know a little about slide, seems to me it would be an achievable goal for a beginner/intermediate slide player.
It’s a very straightforward and simplified version he does. Everything here should give you the pieces for what he does. I’ll add it up the list though. Would be interesting to go back over it. 🎯
@@TheWashboardResonators Thanks for the reply Martyn. Will keep plugging away at your lesson then double check it to clapton's at some point. Now that I know a little about about slide, his version doesn't appear overly complicated, although I suppose simplicity is the prerogative of the master!
I am - correction: was, after watching this video - new to open G tuning. Thanks for the information! 😀👍
Hopefully it opens the door to much more information! 🎯
Killer
🎼🎼🎼
Gotta love those B&G commercials
🎼🎯🎼
You mean more like, "I got those mean ol' Docker wearin' blues"...
🎯
Love your Gibson acoustic, is it a real old one or a reissue ? They must be quite expensive . Good lesson 👍🎸
Real one! Incredible guitar.
Martyn, what are the picks you are using? I have tried some and they either cut blood off because they are too small or just seem a still as a stick. I have quite big fingers. Thanks for the lesson.
There are videos on choosing these.
I use Dunlop medium thumbpicks and National NP1 Fingerpicks.
It is for opposite reasons. They’re stiffer do stay on as I have thin fingers.
Took me years of trying dozens of products to find what fits me and works!!
Hi Martyn, (Apologies for getting your name wrong initially). Great Video again. Lots of ideas for me to have fun with here. I've been for 9 months solely using Gibson nylon finger picks every day, (was a real struggle at first, but now really paying dividends on all the guitars I play) I notice you favor the metal finger picks. Is there a particular reason for this over nylon finger picks ?? or just simply your own personal choice ?? Thanks again.................
Nylon on the thumb because it’s softer than the strings and keeps them lasting longer. Metal thumb picks will ‘cut’ the strings and ruin the windings over time.
Metal finger picks because they can be shaped tight enough to stay on, especially on hot days.
These are practical considerations for someone gigging 200 times a year.
I actually prefer the sound the opposite way around but it doesn’t work live or means I’m changing strings too often which is a ball ache.
If it was a hobby or I was only doing 1, 2 or 3 gigs a month I’d do it differently.
Bring the DEE lay man. You are playing on top of the beat. Get behind it.
I bit the bullet, an bought 1, an Ozark wooden bodied resonator, with a spider bridge, got heavier gauge strings 13s I think!2 chrome, 2 glass and 1 brass I have another somewhere, and a bar! it came in standard tuning but since tuned to open g, i also returned a Yamaha Pacifica to open d, an odd choice for slide yeah but it's a hardtail with a P90 at the neck and a splittable humbucker at the bridge! Any advice is welcome??
Don’t know what advice I can give. Just learn other folks tunes for hours a day now and play as much as poss. Be the greatest.
@@TheWashboardResonators THANKS MARTIN!
@thewashboardresonators: thank you for the video. I want to blow my mind. What should I google for the tuning topic. I could not understand it. Tampa Tuning? Could somebody help me? Thanks
Tempered Tuning. No piano or fretted instrument is ever really in tune. It’s about relative keys and how the third note in the scale mathematically impure.
@@TheWashboardResonators thank you. My English was not good enough. I alway landed on Tampa Red Tuning which I already knew 😀
My brother studied music in Germany and also had a little workshop with Tommy Emmanuel. I know check the tuning video and than check my brother if he knows this stuff 😜
By the way I like your videos a lot and the they help me with my playing although I am an upside down guy 🙃 thanks a lot!
I quit purchasing guitar picks some years back. As i got tired of the price of a 2.0 Dunlop turtle green. Were 50¢ pc but must identify the correct plastic from which to harvest as my god. Plastic quality varies wide as the ocean.
Many seemingly adequate pick making haed plastic such as soda lids or lids of any kind of food pb j mayo etc are 💯% garbage. For picks
But from my experience the finest pick making plastic. Is the blue box that surround all GFI and light switch. Type of. Outlet.
That is bloody ideal
U can either use heat to melt it. And flatten with pliers but most importantly u sand the bevelled edges and points to your preference. And using finer and finer sand paper until the very end u take the finest grit. And literally rub the surface hard and firm preferably in long uninterrupted. Strokes to give the most dynamic. And advantageous. To u. Structure but this hard rub should make it look shiny as if its glazed or coated poly. So there is no unsmooth. Surface that would otherwise sound skranky and snag.
But I also put on three different points on them usually I have like a dominant point but I like to slightly alter each pick a little bit so that if I get tired of holding a pick one way and my fingers ever get like numb I'n my picking hand i switch out. And instantly provide a much needed. Relief. But i become obsessed with which i prefer but u might find ur self. Indecisive as well but I definitely covet my own picks.
Fascinating.
I can’t get use to the finger picks. I pick the wrong strings all the time. Feels horrible. Thanks though.do you trim down the thumb pick so it’s a bit shorter? I think a metal guitar may get better tone than my Jim dandy.
Was the same for a long time coming to fingerpicking from playing bass with fingers or a plectrum. It comes eventually and when it does there’s so much you can do with the picks. It’s quite the opposite in terms of pick length... I like a fresh long Dunlop thumbpick.
@@TheWashboardResonators thank you for your replay.
No problem. It’s worth persevering. Remember the frustration well. It was getting bloody fingers busking that made it click that I had to make it work.
more Lesson - Play In Open G
Can always do more. 🎯
One (small) interesting detail that very few delta blues teachers illustrate: as the key string is open string 4 (in open D) and open 5 string (in open G tuning), you don't have to learn the chords shapes in both tunings ! Whatever you do in open D, you can do it in open G, with a simple downward one string shift! Of course, it works with ANY chord (minor, 7th, sus4, 6th...). Isn't life wonderful?
So true. Also depending on tuning, certain of the two or three strings are the same as standard so your pentatonic are easy to use.
Miles away from blues also open tunings don't need chord names such as suspended most. Bluesman were illiterate which showed me straightaway the so called teacher here isn't that organised in blues . Maybe a beginner
@@dontgoout1434 I don’t completely agree with you. Yes, most early bluesmen were illiterate, but not all of them : Skip James learned piano in school (with the mandatory amount of theory , in those days) : he knew exactly what he was playing (maybe not the chords names, but the progressions and relationships between them). His open D minor tuning was quite puzzling for other bluesmen
Hi there - don't suppose you know anyone that will do 1:1 slide lessons?
Not sure of anyone I know!
What gauge strings are u using and are they phosphorus bronze? I'm using a regular 000 recording king guitar until I get better. I'm coming from a Scruggs roll banjo picker.
Yep. PB 16s. In our video list we have beginners slide videos and string comparisons that might help with string choice. TBH any gauge work dependent upon technique but I find 13s, 15s & 16s are all in the wheelhouse of being practical on acoustic instruments.
Thanks for the advise on what to go with. I think the open G is slacker than standard so I'll go with a medium 15 gauge for starters.
Would a pick work?
Absolutely. Just develop your own style.
Sitting on top of the world is a 9 bar blues
😁
Me puedes enseñar online y en español?
Gracias! Not in Spanish. Sorry! 😔
Sound funny mate better use fingers and heavier slide on 3rd finger .listen to people like cal reason superb
Spoken like a scholar and a gentleman.
Dude! The fat string? Really?
🥱
Reposition your camera!

I’m getting that gay vibe
Ha ha. It’s the exact opposite. 🥱
Why does every Open G Video start with tuning? Good lord, come prepared people… no offense to content provider
Easy breezy.
