    Thank you very much for the demo. I lost the use of my left three fingers in a very nasty near death accident after 47 years of playing. I was a professional session guitarist, self taught, and then classically trained. I actually gave away three guitars, and sold one. I think now there is hope to still sling a heavy monster guitar over my shoulder once again. Thank you for the encouragement. If you sell lessons on DVD, please let me know. I'm retired now, and this is what my speech therapist for my attention, and concentrtion was talking about. Recovery has been slow, and most arduous. Thank you again.

    @pharmerdavid5803 Před 7 lety +16

    I've played guitar most of my life (I'm 61) and never had the patience to learn slide guitar, but since I cut my left index finger on my left (fretting) hand I'm giving it a go again. I've already been through several other beginning slide guitar videos, but this is the best one yet. You are an excellent teacher - thanks mate!

  • @Matheus222
    @Matheus222 Před 10 lety +9

    Justin you're too good to be true - teacher. I'm learning from you without even need of a guitar next to me, nor to do it; and I can do it 1-2 hours later and still remember what you've said because you've explained it so detailed.

  • @JanisSirmovics
    @JanisSirmovics Před 10 lety +5

    Sometimes I watch these videos to learn new things, sometimes just to watch Justin mock around with various techniques because he is that good!

    Great stuff - I tried for fun using a deep socket from my tool box -and encountered all the issues you mentioned - I'll try again now that I've watched the video.

  • @elijahtiner5691

    Great work justin. You teached me for 3 years everything I know about guitar and a few more things :) . keep in that way, you are a great person doing a beautyfull work and that is something that the people really appreciate.

  • @abhisheksarkar_beyondinfinity

    Thanks a lot Justin!! I got a slide today and strum a chord in open d-tuning. The screech from my guitar was horrible. After your lesson, my guitar is producing reasonably melodic notes when I'm using the slide. Going to practice a lot with it!

  • @mrgpassat
    @mrgpassat Před 7 lety

  • @mairenared
    @mairenared Před 10 lety +4

    Hi Justin, another great lesson and perfect for newcomers to slide. I've been playing slide for some years and my heroes are Ry Cooder and Lowell George of Little Feat. Also love Michael Messer and Sonny Landreth. I agree with you that for beginners, starting in standard tuning is no bad thing, but eventually you will graduate towards open tuning to get the real Delta sound. A trick I learned from Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top is to tune the first string down to D. That way you can play in standard tuning with the bottom five strings(EADGB) and in open G with the top four strings (DGBD). It's a really neat trick!

    Of all the slide lessons I found here on YT, and I watched quite a lot, this one is the most comprehensive and understandable! Thanks a lot for sharing!

    • @PeterMoore66
      @PeterMoore66 Před 11 měsíci

      Agreed! I've watched a lot of tutorials to learn slide guitar and this is the only one that mentions not pressing down with the slide and muting with the right hand.

  • @TheRealLingrush
    @TheRealLingrush Před 9 lety +8

    VERY well explained. This is the first time I've watched one of your videos all the way through, and I'm extremely impressed. A lot of people have the guitar skill, but not the spoken talent to convey what they know - you've got both in spades. I'll be checking out more of your videos, and you can bet that if somebody asks me a question I can't answer, I'll refer them to your videos. Thanks for doing what you do.

    Best slide lesson I ever had. Well, honestly the only one. But I've had a couple slides over the years and never quite worked it out. It's the right hand muting I wasn't getting. Thanks again!

    Brilliant lesson Justin, you covered everything (as expected!!!), the tip about vibrato in that you should get lower and higher in pitch is great, this really brings out this unique feature of the slide.
