Learn to Play Slide Guitar Like a Pro
By Jason C Diggs
What is referred to as a “slide guitar” is actually a technique, not an instrument. 
slide guitar is played two ways: the player can hold the guitar normally or horizontally. If it is held normally then the player puts a covering on one of the fingers on his or her left hand and makes sound by sliding the left hand up and down the strings. The object covering the players’ fingers is often referred to as a bottleneck because that was the first material used. If the player holds the guitar horizontally then the player uses a steel, which is similar to a bottleneck but, not surprisingly, composed of steel. To play the guitarist will slide the steel up and down the frets of the guitar. This is referred to as playing a “steel guitar”.

The Blues Scale – How It Opened Up A Whole New World To Me
By Lee Griffith
In my earlier years of playing guitar, I could never even begin to comprehend how guitar players could jam with other musicians and improvise, when it came their turn to take a break. I would listen and watch in amazement as a guitar player would (effortlessly, it seemed) play lick after lick of great sounding lead guitar. Then I read about 
the blues scale. This simple scale, the blues scale, which I learned in a day, and mastered in a week, opened up an entirely new world to me. By knowing this collection of notes which would go with a given chord, I was able to do amazing feats of improvisation in a few days!
