Slide guitar

The slide lesson uses the Shockwave technology for more sounds, more pix and more interactivity. So if you don´t already have downloaded the latest version of the Shockwave plugin go to Macromedia and download the right plugin for your browser. The lessons are 300-600Kb but starts showing after some downloading time. And you´ll also need a soundcard and speakers to your computer. Before you start playing please check the G-tuning and D-tuning pages for a basic understanding of playing in open tunings.
