The Art of Slides
Slides are a ‘glissando’ technique that will help you move around the fretboard more smoothly. Watch this video to hear and see just some of the cool things you can do with them!
How to Play Them, Use Them, and Jam With Them!
In this video, you’ll learn how to play slides with good technique so they sound smooth every time, you’ll discover some slightly unusual tips on playing them more effectively, and how to incorporate slides into your playing for some exciting jams!
Putting Them Into Action With a Musical Piece!
Finally, we put the slides into action where you’ll learn a really exciting piece of music (which you can hear at the beginning of the first video on this page). This is a really cool 5-bar piece that you can play in a variety of ways (just repeating bar 1 over and over is fun), and hopefully, it will inspire you with your own jams, as well as teach you to use slides, fingerpicking, and triplet rhythms.
