Bottleneck Slide Guitar

Bottleneck Slide Guitar – Acoustic & Electric Guitar Techniques

Nothing sounds as bluesy as a slide guitar, and this DVD shows you how it’s done on electric and acoustic, solo or with a group. Fred Sokolow shows you how to play and improvise slide in the styles of the great bluesmen – Muddy Waters, Elmore James, Mississippi Fred McDowell and Duane Allman.

In this DVD lesson you will learn
• Solos, backup licks, turnarounds and fills in three tunings: open G, open D and standard.
• How to play slide in any key.
• How to improvise slide solos in standard and open tunings
• Using moveable blues boxes.

Close-ups of both hands help you see just how it’s done and the accompanying tab/music booklet makes it easy to follow the arrangements. Fred’s teaching is clear and easy to understand. This DVD lesson is a great introduction to the soulful world of bottleneck/slide guitar.
