Hey guys - My first instructional video book "50 Slide Guitar Licks" is now available! Check it out here: dantoppomusic.thinkific.com I’m also offering virtual slide guitar lessons and session work! If you’re interested, shoot me an email at dantoppomusic@gmail.com for more details!
This is invaluable for new players trying to learn most types of chords in open e tuning. Gonna like and subscribe just because of this video alone. Thank you for all that you do
Really insightful and helpful video! Would love to see a video on improvising in open E and some scale shapes that you like to use. Watching your videos makes me want to play slide so much more! Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much for your comment man! I have plans to make more videos talking about scale shapes/how to approach jazz standards/common jazz chords in open tuning. I appreciate your support!
Dan This is gold brother, very insightful and very helpful, yt algorithm really came through when it suggested your videos one day, very thankful for the work you put into these lessons man! Cheers from France!
Hey man, I've been trying to learn this style, getting used to living in open e, and it means so much to me especially that derek is inspired by indian music. Its great to find a channel thats dug so deep into this, there's only handful on UA-cam right now. Cheers.
really enjoyed this! this gave me the tools to expand my chord vocabulary not just in open E! just examine how a major chord is fretted and then just alter the fretting for the desired chord! so simple yet so useful! now I can come up with voicings in any tuning. I would love to learn from another video about inversions, extensions, etc.
@@danvtoppo Since the low E acts as the root position for chords, could the 5th/low B string act as the 2nd inversion position for chords? I'm wondering since the 5th/low B string is the 5th of E, could it be used in the same manner? Likewise if you tuned your 5th string down to G# rather than up to B, could it act as the 1st inversion position for chords since G# is the major 3rd? Not sure if that made sense in communicating it.
@@samdixon6433 Good question. If I'm understanding correctly, yes. the voicing for the triad with the low B string acting as the bass would be 5-1-3, which is a second inversion major triad. (the 1 would be on the middle E string and the 3 would be on the G# string). Similarly, if you use the G# string for the bass note, the voicing will be 3-5-1, which is a first inversion major triad. (the 5 would be on the high B string and the 1 would be on the high E strings).
Great stuff Dan, yes please make another video on chords! Also if you have anything to say about fingering behind the slide and making chords with the slide on! Thanks for everything!
Hi Dan. Absolutely great lesson. Your own playing is spectacular. Desperately trying to learn this chord sequence but first necessary to get the chords. Have to virtually pull my fingers into position for the 7sus4 and the A aug 7. Keep up the courses. This has really reenergised my slide playing. Not in the same league I’m afraid I live in Spain where are you from your accent isn’t very strong. Cheers Peter (PEDRO)
Peter, thank you so much for the kind words and support! I’m happy to hear that I have inspired you! I am currently working on an video book of 50 slide guitar licks that I’m excited to share!
Hey, geile lehrstunde. Bin dabei E dur tuning wieder zu entdecken. Habe es ne zeitlang auch gespielt, slide etc. Da ich totaler Autodidakt bin habe ich natürlich meinen eigenen schnall von Akkorden und Harmonien. Aber ich kann mir viel rausziehen aus dem Video. Sehr gut

Wow --really scary chords in open e tuning --any simpler major & minor chords ?
Thanks, Dan. I’d been struggling a bit working out that progression.
Another great lesson.
No problem man. Thank you for your support!
Hey Dan! How much do you play in standard tuning? I have one of my guitars in open E but only ever use for slide
Hey man! I play in open E almost all the time. Occasionally I’ll pick up a guitar that’s in standard tuning to write some different chord progressions
Please do the "I'll find my way"
Would it be possible to play that song?
Really helpful mate , thank you

Can you play E minor in the tuning?
9:29 you called it a Bmaj7, but aren't you playing Bbmaj7/A#maj7?
nvm just got to the part where you corrected it lmfao
Awesome!!!

That means so much to me Dexter, thank you! I really appreciate your support
Thank you for this! There is not much good material on chords for Open tuning so this is excellent!
Thank you so much man! I’m so glad to hear that this is useful!
Great! Cool to think how Derek must have worked through all of this...as a kid...with no internet.
Ha! Definitely man. He is force, that’s for sure!

Also, I’m from New Jersey
Nearly got this chord run🙄. It’s the transitions that are taking the time. Yep you 50 slide licks so
Sounds very interesting great stuff. Pressed send too soon‼️

Brilliant lesson and explanation- thanks so much! 👍
Fantastic, thanks!
There are so few vids on chords and general accompaniment when it comes to Open E, great lesson thanks brother!
Thanks so much Justin!
Amazing!
Thanks so much Charles!
