Beginner Blues Slide Guitar Lesson

Blues Slide Guitar Lesson For Beginners

Slide Guitar (Also Know As Bottleneck Guitar) is a unique sounding style of guitar that is often associated with The Blues, but is also used in other Genres of music like Hawaiian, Jazz and Rock to name a few.  No one knows for sure who invented it, but when you mention slide guitar, you will almost always think of The Blues.

Slide guitar is named as such because of the sliding motion across the strings which produces its distinctive sound.  You can only produce this distinctive sound by using what is known as a “Slide”,  which is just tubular piece of metal, glass or other material that you wear on  your sliding finger. Originally, in Blues Slide Guitar, a guitarist used a bottleneck as the slide, hence the name “Bottleneck” guitar.
