Simply killer. Pure blues gold right here. Timeless. 20 yrs from now this will still be good. Make that 50 yrs. Most of us will be gone by then but this will still be just as good as it was when it was recorded.

@serioussam4105 Жыл бұрын

Dislikes are mostly from the newbies who gets frustrated. I`m a noob but I put a thumb up but I know how it works :) because sometimes I get frustrated too if a lesson is a bit hard to follow and I sometimes downvote a video but than I calm down and come back and upvote it. :)

Matt Smith is a very easy instructor. I like the way he relates to the student...like a friend sharing instead of teacher pounding instructions into your head. Got a sense of humor I can relate too as well. Great video(s).

This guy is great, I have wanted to learn slide guitar for so long now, ( ever since I watched Crossroads... ) always thought it was too hard. Matt breaks it down so well that even I can learn it. Thanks man, you're awesome.

I'm so happy to 'rediscover' this amazing man. I first found him a couple of years ago. His tuitions are so helpful. His wit and relaxed style and amazing 'ear' make for a great learning experience. A good man.👍🎼🎸

Solid gold, Matt! I've watched this and Part 1 before, but wasn't getting much out of it because I was still struggling to get the feel of playing with a slide. With that finally conquered I was able to watch and listen without that distraction and you really paved the way for me to get off to a flying start on slide with these videos. Thanks a ton! I've wanted to learn this for years.

I've always been envious of horn players because of how little they have to do if they have a good tone. Slide is the same to me less is more it's so tasty like six notes on a trumpet that are worth a thousand notes shredding. Great vid!

@gregpickett1288 9 жыл бұрын

Matt, just caught the Part 1 & 2 Killer Slide. Mate, this is just what the budding blues players need. You put it together really well and it gives a whole range of goodies one can take away a practice.....Look forward to a lot more....And the funny stuff just gives the lesson that relaxed feeling, that I believe blues is all about. Rock on.

Matt you’re a genius. In 30 years of playing guitar I’ve never been so entertained and at the same time learn so much in such a small space of time! You ability link licks with trains, trucks and sheriffs with shades aids the learning process and makes it so much fun at the same time. I write this during Lockdown whilst trying to learn slide guitar and you are well on the way to helping me on that journey - thanks so much :-) !!

best slide melody everybody can play: OPEN TUNING, start on 12th fret play these strings in this order: 4-2-3-2 now slide wherever you want, but do 1 thing. it sounds genious if you play faster if you slide higher frets, and play slower if you slide to lower frets have some 5 minute fun now :P

That is a personal preference. It would also have to do with what tuning you are using. Finding a gauge that fits your technique is important. .012s are a good place to start but works for Matt, might not work for you so experiment. with some gauges and see what works. We realize this isn't a perfect answer but there really isn't one - .012 to .052 or .012 to .056 are good places to start
