Slide Guitar Technique 101 will teach you the fundamentals of good slide guitar technique. These are the things that will get you playing the music you love, and able to express yourself as a One Finger Guitarist. You'll learn how to: control the slide, get a good sound, play in tune, develop expressive vibrato, play cleanly, and more... Approaching slide guitar can be a daunting prospect - I'm here to help break it down and make it manageable and fun :-)
This course presents underlying concepts and ideas that go much deeper than your typical lick-based soloing lessons or courses. I want to help you understand soloing on a deeper level and be able to apply these concepts to create better solos.
