A lot like baseball: learn to slide and not over pitch.

Don't forget to groove m8
At last, someone gave me an easy way to fingerpick. I had to relearn how to play completely when I had a stroke in 2010. I did alright on the relearn with everything but fingerpicking. Never could get the hang of it with all fingers. So now im gonna try your way for a while, Chuck man. And I like the fact that you play slide with a flat pic too. Thats how I play now. Kudos, brother!!
Thanks Sunka, good health to you good luck on your musical journey! FYI, I have just launched this range of slides and instructionals... www.backyardmusic.co.nz/bottlenecks
Tuned to open G and made a slide out of a canning lid and have been messing around for days. Got the blues scale down a little bit but I never knew I only had to press down very lightly. Also didnt know to go onto the fret wire! It makes a huge difference! This is exactly the information I needed, thanks for the lesson!!
Perfect! Glad I could help you out! good luck on your slide journey. more about my music here... www.backyardmusic.co.nz/shop
This is how I am spending my two weeks shut in. I haven't played for more than 30 years. This makes me think I could do it again. Thanks.
Great stuff Terry, yeah man, glad it gave you the inspiration to kickstart again. Keep Rockin'
The pitch on the slides is spot on. Well done
Cheers Mark! :)
Thank you! I've been trying for years to learn slide and totally failing. In one 14 minute video you showed me everything I've been doing wrong. Hopefully, with a little time, I can get past my old habits and finally succeed.
You have my unending gratitude!
Thank you, I am glad I could help you out! good luck on your slide journey!
Finally!! A nice, easy to grasp Open G & Slide Basics for the average player. I’ve watched a few others and your lesson made the “light bulb” go off over my head... Gotta hit the store and get me a slide. Thanks for keeping it simple, relevant and offering some easy exercises.
Great stuff! I'm so glad I could be part of your slide journey! Keep Rockin' :) more abut my music here www.backyardmusic.co.nz/shop
Been playing for ages now and dig good tutorials - they help refresh the basics and help learn new licks to practice !
Glad I could help you out! Cheers, :)
Slide guitar is great fun and great ear training.Takes minutes to get into but a lifetime to master. Great video, thanks.
Thanks JJ, keep them ears workin'. Good luck : :) :)
Fantastic lesson, really appreciate you covering the very basics of slide like the pressure and muting for beginners :) Thank you!
Thanks Rey! Glad I could help you out :) more about my music right here :) www.backyardmusic.co.nz
I just tuned my acoustic toopen G this morning and I’m spot on with the slide Love your videos keep them coming call
Cheers ML :)
I've been trying to learn guitar since I retired at 60 a few years ago and have progressed to knowing some open Chords by watching UA-cam videos. I can even play a tune or two but have always felt there must be more than just playing on the first three frets. It has got a bit boring to be honest. Last night I watched an interview with '' Sea Sick Steve '' who said '' Tune your guitar to find a sound that sounds good to you then just play what you want'' Today I've found this video of yours and BINGO !!! My guitar sounds so much better tuned to '' G '' I can now play what I like just by '' Ear '' and will learn how to play '' Slide ''as well. You Sir are a Genius. Wish I had found you years ago. God Bless you.
Thanks for your kind words Harry and I'm glad I can help you on your journey. :)
Great little lesson ... laid back yet precise. Thanks.
Glad you liked it Bryan :)
Brother Chuck , Thanks man !!! Been playing 55+ yrs. & your style of communicating & teaching is commendable . Please keep up the good work you are doing . God Bless & best wishes from your newest subscriber !!!

Man I’ve been trying to figure out slide for years now and your excellent video got me on track quick!!

Cheers Jim! keep rocking' man! I have just released series of hand crafted slides and instructionals... please check them out it :) www.backyardmusic.co.nz/bottlenecks
Thanks for the licks man, trying to learn a whole new way of playing can be daunting but those super easy and totally badass licks are just what a man needs when battling string noise, alternative tunings, and 100 other things I'm doing wrong.
Thanks for checking in Grady, glad it helped you out! keep rockin' ! :)
What a great intro to G tuning. I intend to give it a go as I've never been able to get regular tuning to sound good with slide. Thanks.
Thanks Michael, glad it helped you out. holler out if I can help further :)

Just got into slide and it's a blast! My father is losing feeling in his finger tips and has played guitar for years. He has several guitars and I'm gonna tune 1 to open G and give him a slide to fuck with. Thanks for the awesome lesson man

Great instructional video...! I struggle a bit with the finger picking in the slide game, partly from arthritis in my fingers, but mostly because a lifetime of only using plectrum. I've only had my resonator (and a need for finger picking...) for a few months, so I'll keep working on it. Your videos are really unpretentious and tutorial. They helped me a great deal. Keep up the good work.
Very kind words Bullbapp, I truly appreciate it. Glad I could help you out. Cheers!
Excellent presentation
Great Job, very helpful

Thanks for the good vibes David :) good Luck!
Thanks for the GREAT lesson!
Cheers for the good vibes Dennis. :)
Thanks so much for the great beginner tutorial! Yours was the best I’ve found, hitting the basics. I just got a Recording King Dirty 30’s Minnie Resonator and can’t wait to learn how to play some blues.
Thanks for your kind words. Good luck on your musical journey 😃
Gee! Lots of good tips packed into a quarter hour video! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks you Ray, I'm glad I could help you out. :) :)
Great lesson
Thank You Amalia :)
i now understand g tuning and slide guitar this has puzzled me for years after playing in concert e for a long tong time . a new sound to try out thank you
Glad I could help you out Shane! :)
I can't afford a regular resonator guitar so I had to just use my regular guitar. Maybe I can get one in the near future. I used a piece of copper water pipe that my finger would fit in to use as a slide. Just sand the rough edges smooth. Thanks so so much for the lesson because I can't afford the lessons at a shop due to raising a family and keeping a house going. My music has to be second to the family.
Just play from the heart and keep rockin' :)
Hey, thoroughly enjoyed this. Much appreciated! Just stumbled over your UA-cam lessons, very nice & I'll be checking them out. Thanks man!
Stay safe,
Dave in the Adirondacks 🤠🎸

You’re a fantastic teacher. Glad this was recommended to me. Thank you
NST, Glad it was helpful! Cheers for the good vibes :)
Li'l Chuck The One Man Skiffle Machine Thanks, man. Say, I’m looking at getting a resonator, preferably smaller body. Would you happen to have any recommendations? Wood body or all steel/brass? Thanks
@@sinjon depend on your budget really...I run a Facebook group called National and resonator guitar enthusiasts... if you post this question there, you'll get a really good cross selection of answers... Some of our members have way more knowledge than me :)
Much obliged!!!
perfect tutorial...short and to the point...
Thank you Larry :)
Today is day two for me and now I'm waiting for day so as not to wake my neighbours. I'm playing a Recording King dirty thirties parlour guitar and the sound is magic. looking forward to more hints, many thanks. an old prairie boy

Brilliant thanks
Thanks Roy! :)
Cheers Dave 🙏🙏
I'm not kissing your ass here but this is the best explanation of open G and incorporating the slide that I have ever watched. I have been messing around with open G since the early 90's when my dad bought me a VHS tape at 13 years of age. I learned more in 14 minutes than I have in 30 years. I often wonder how different things would have been through out my life if UA-cam was around when I was a kid. Anyway, thanx for the upload!!!!
Simple and easy way to follow, without the complications. Excellent
Glad I could help David :)
Very helpful thank you
Thanks Brandan, glad I could help you out :)
Very entertaining, bro and above all enlightening, just got into Open G tuning, and I really love it. Got to get me one of those metal pipes to slide around on the fretboard 😂
nice one, enjoy the journey!
Thanks!
great stuff man
Thanks Stan! Keep Slidin'. More of my music right here... skifflemachine.bandcamp.com

That tip about slightly muting the strings behind with your ring finger is incredibly helpful
Thanks for the good vibes! :)
