So what?
Picked up a slide...
But I would suggest getting the basics down first.
Shuddup bish I'll melt your face! On the real tho... I feel confident enough in my basic skills to try to branch out and try different things. I have by no means mastered anything but I would like to get the most out of my experience with my guitar.

If he wants to play slide, there's nothing more basic than getting a slide!
Soo... If I may... Any words of wisdom when it comes to slide? I got a glass slide that fits my ringfinger, you have to put it ON TOP of the fret, and it seems that standard tuning isnt the best for slide. Oh and you pluck instead of pick. Anything you (or anyone else) would like to add???

Lastly, higher action on the guitar makes it easier to play slide. Otherwise, it gets real easy to knock the frets with the slide.
Good luck setting up your own guitar then.
PM for times and details.
Yeah... alot of youtube folks are fans of open E...As far as it being on my pinky... its a full length glass one. I could stick it on my pinky but i kinda end up barring the whole fret reguardless. Thanks for the info holmes!Try tuning to an open chord, like open E (low to high E B E G# B E). You can arpeggiate or strum, it really depends on how you want to sound.
Also, if you get in the habit of playing the slide on your pinky, you can also fret notes behind the slide, for maximum rockage.
