I didn't think Duane played any slide in standard tuning? I know Warren Haynes and Dickey Betts does but I didn't think Duane did? You learn something new everyday.
@@kylebollendorf4856 Thanks Kyle. I'm a 40+ yr player myself but I just never really played much slide. I'll tell you this though. The first time I ever heard "Ain't My Cross To Bear" it gave me goose bumps and kick-started my passion for the "Blues" which goes right into today. I'll always be grateful for that.
@@bluzzedude2677 Me too brother....I think I had the cassette tape Beginnings and it just blew me away. I was lucky enough to have a Dad that loved the ABB and had Fillmore East on vinyl
You are a one of a kind player. I love all of the bands that your band covers. I hope one day you are producing original music that will lift you to the hero status you deserve to be.
I have played slide in standard tuning for about 35 years. (It cuts down on time between songs on live gigs.) I still learned a surprising amount from you! I use a glass Dunlop thin slide, but on my ring finger. I'm going to try your way though. Thanks Dylan!
Dylan, your playing knocks me out, coming from someone who's been playing 30 years and can hold my own. Your videos inspired me to pick up a slide that fits, and playing in standard is so refreshing, after so many years of conventional wisdom saying standard and slide don't go together. I'm down to 1 guitar, and knowing I don't need to change anything to play slide has removed my main excuses to get good at slide. Hearing what you can do definitely opened my eyes. Thank you. I hope you keep it up.
Like most people watching this channel, if you name a guitarist I've probably listened to and played along with most of their records (with varying degreees of success). Many of them I've also seen live. I preface that to say that I've now heard enough of Dylan's playing to confidently proclaim him as one of the best guitarists I've ever heard. Like ever. I'm not joking.
I can't tell you how awesome this is. I have been figuring out slide for myself over the past few years and it has been hard. This is so good! Nice to see your approach and thoughts. Learning slide by myself has felt like being out in the wilderness. Sometimes you see other players from a distance and try and copy, figure things out, and add your own ideas. I really hope you keep doing these! Keep fighting the good fight haha
This is what’s so cool about the guitar! there’s so many different ways and places to play virtually the exact same thing. But playing the “same” thing in various positions it gives us very different sounds and inflections based on where notes fall and their relation to each other. Also different strings for the same notes gives us different tones.
Im a legit Dylan Adams fan now. You've renewed my enthusiasm for learning slide, that I gave up on 20yrs ago. Please keep the tutorial videos coming man
Have ended up in C# Standard on my guitars for the last few months, and really enjoy it. Learning the notes, transposing songs. Would be amazing to add slide tone to my arsenal
I’ve been trying to get into slide for years and generally feel like an amateur faking the vocabulary. But dude, how did I not think about the literal translation of open scales, so helpful! Thanks! Obviously a killer player, but you’ve also been doing great getting up and running on the whole TH-cam thing! I should probably sit down for a lesson with you at some point, but if you’re looking for video ideas, would love to see one on Truck’s vocabulary in standard tuning. Thanks man, keep it up!
Awesome Dylan!! Fantastic content and I bought this rock slide last week and it's sounds amazing, your contents really helps me to improve my slide skills. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
Brilliant, thanks man! That slide-on-the-pinkie thing's killing my confidence, but I've finally decided to give it a proper try...so, it's 'teach an old dog a new trick' kinda thing. :) ps Looking forward to the fretting behind (or is it in front) the slide in part two.
You have a one of a kind talent. Your talent is so much more than covers. To approach the next level, original music is the key. Your band is good. But you can be something that makes a mark on guitar history. That may require original music. Have your written anything?
Thanks for making these! As soon as I discovered you I immediately started trying out standard tuning and your hybrid slide/fingered style. It's a whole new world
Great stuff man! Been playing slide in open tunings and fingerpicking in standard and always wanted to combine those. Gonna check this out some more. So you have like 5 different shapes (caged like) across the neck? Take care man, keep it coming! Looking forward to part 2. Would also like to find out more about your tone/drive settings.
I use what I call the extended pentatonic shape for playing standard tuning slide. When I was learning guitar no one told me that guys tuned to open chords. I didn't learn that until I saw a video of George Thorogood. The extended shape gives you a lot of opportunities to slide into a major third and 4th diads. The extended pentatonic for G major (E Minor) looks like this: e---------------------------------------------------------------------------------10----12------ b------------------------------------------------------------8----10----12--------------------- g--------------------------------------------------7---9------------------------------------------ D------------------------------------5---7---9--------------------------------------------------- A--------------------------5---7------------------------------------------------------------------ E---------0---3---5---7------------------------------------------------------------------------- You can drop down three frets on any of the strings with two notes to do a long slide into a note as well. I don't know if anyone else does this, but it works for me. Its probably just because I learned things the wrong way...lol.
I’ve been playing a bit of slide in standard for about a year now to do little vocal lines and chordal stuff, but you opened my eyes to the possibility of sounding like open tuning and playing the Duane style slide licks in standard. I’ve been chugging through statesboro blues one lick at a time and it’s been the most fun I’ve had learning new guitar ideas in a long time
Right on!! Like I said in the video, Jack Pearson’s playing gave me that same revelation and is partly what inspired me to make the switch, so I’m so stoked to hear people are getting that from this video. Keep working at it and keep having fun! 🤙🏻
I just want to learn the cool shuffle you're playing at the beginning of the lesson. I feel if I could play that I could pretty much play anything. I bought a cheap Epiphone SG to play slide as my Tele's action is too low to for slide. Dylan thanks so much for all the time and effort you put into making all the teaching videos. You are an awesome player and your tone is right up there with the best. Rusty from the Suwannee River Florida.
Really cool perspective, thanks for sharing! There are very few TH-cam educators out there tackling slide! One standard tuning solo I tried (and failed at) early on was the Harrison one on Lennon's "how do you sleep?" It's definitely in the wacky outside blues category.
Check out JD Simo too. He plays slide in standard that sounds like he’s in open tuning. He can also do the Derek Trucks sound in standard tuning. There are several videos on TH-cam
thank you so much you've just showed me magic can't thank you enough I reckon if I had a few lessons on slide with I be away with the fairy incredible sounds. Thanks for the shapes im gonna stick with this it sounds too good🙏your an amazing slide player🎸
I'm a firm believer that Jack Pearson is the single most well-rounded guitarist in history. at least the most well-rounded one I know of, and I'd like to think I know a lot of em.
I've been playing the odd song in open G slide for years in our blues band, to give a different tonality, but I thought I'd try learning in standard tuning. Your scale shape at the beginning is superb, I really found that a useful start. But, pleease tell me how you get that awesome tone.... I want!!!
Dylan, This Is It ! It’s the crux. Been faking my way through shoe-gaze atmospheres, trying to wow myself. I knew it wasn’t the truth. Thank you for showing me the Truth. Seriously. JJZ…(°¿.°`)
Thanks so much! It’s a Mulecaster made by Mule Resophonic guitars, a hollow steel-bodied wood-necked Tele and it’s my favorite guitar! Two mini humbuckers actually, the neck pickup just has a cool looking foil-esque cover
GREAT lesson dude! I’m a full time player.. gigging all the time.. teach some private lessons….In other words I know how to play. But slide was always my Achilles heel. And since many of the bands I work with go through sets very quickly, I never have an opportunity to change to open tuned guitars etc.., and that was always my excuse for not learning slide well. However, your approach is super practical, and it’ll get me on the right path. so now I have zero excuses! Lol Anyway thanks for posting!!
Thanks Dylan, you are God in Disguise, the same as a Waterfall, and birds are the Holy Spirit Veiled. I had to slow the video down because I couldn't work out the "re-mix" of the Minor Pentatonic shape. But got it. Much more expression that way. With Gratitude.
Another really good video. I have always played slide in Standard. Occasionally I would play slide on "Non" slide tunes. Black Magic Woman, Freeway Jam, etc.Back in the day, most of us had one electric guitar. Changing back in forth was a hassle. And, we did not have tuners. Had an A 440 pitch fork. Vibrate it, put between your teeth and tune the a string. The rest off the A string....
As a 40+ yr player who's, mostly, grounded in the Blues....I've never played slide. I don't know why. Maybe because the few times I gave it a shot in standard tuning..it didn't sound good. Anyway, I want to learn how. I like to record and I want to throw some of this into my tunes. Thanks for giving back Dylan. I'm gonna try and follow your leads lol.
The first way you played the first lick I kinda envision the E shape chord, and the second way would be A shape chord. I naturally learned to do the A chord way (or Warren Haynes as you described) but the way that you prefer is definitely eye opening and something I’m gonna try to add into my playing! Thanks a lot!
Excellent, thanks we need this ! Ah Jack Person is a wise man...who wants to rip off a squire ....he can manipulate any string instrument and sound the GOAT.
Love your content and your playing. I think youtube is deeply lacking in dedicated slide content. My question for you, with slide on the pinky, do you see it as a problem that my pointer finger wants to fly off the fret board? I have middle and ring behind the slide deadening, but for whatever reason, my pointer wants to instinctively point perpendicular to the fretboard. I haven't started trying to play behind the slide, but I could see how the pointer finger would be a problem. I hope to try behind the slide before too long, But I have played slide on my ring finger for the past year. Pinky does not feel natural to me yet. Cheers.
I play in standard tuning and it is easy to play in the same way as playing in open tuning. On the three or four high strings are chords on one fret - for major (d/g/b) and minor (g/b/e/) or minor 7 (d/g/b/e).
I’ve always played what little I know about slide in open tunings. I’m not very technical, and slow on the uptake, in the 2 or 3 times I really tried to play slide on standard tuning it just didn’t take for me. 🤪 like everything else I’ve learned on guitar even the simplest stuff for me takes a lot of effort to understand. I appreciate the content and save it for a time when what I’m trying at present really clicks.
I learned slide in standard from Warren and im glad you included it....I look at it as G shape and A shape I guess....awesome video and awesome slide playing Dylan
so when descending, if it's one note per string, you would use your thumb to pick the note with the right hand. more general: you use your thumb as the first finger when changing the string in a descending lick - even if it's more strings involved is this principle correct? thanks in advance.
execption is made in cases where there last note on adiacent string lasts more (eg you slide somewhere in the neck within that string): then you could use the index finger as first finger when descending to the next string (you do this on lick 3 btw)
It would be great playing a gig on one guitar and not switching to play slide. You’ve challenged me to learn to play in standard! If you do privates, I’d love to hear about it.
Great lesson! I've been learning and playing slide in open tunings, but haven't seen a lesson that explains the correlation in getting the open tuning sound with standard tuning. The way you explained this altered pentatonic scale in standard tuning, to replicate the open style licks made perfect sense. Well done! And I'm sub'd and following now.
Thanks so much, and I’m glad it made sense/was helpful! I honestly wasn’t sure whether or not I was just gonna confuse everyone with this weird version of the scale haha
perfect timing on this one. been playing more slide recently and finally broke it out for a coupla tunes on a recent gig. really dig that minor pentatonic box - can also see how to easily swap between that and mixolydian. well done!
![Pink Floyd - Great Gig In The Sky [Live To Tape]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/vNYL1QbbI0g/mqdefault.jpg)
A few people have told me that they couldn’t quite make out that “alternate” E minor pentatonic scale shape, so here’s the tab for it!

Thank you Dylan, this lesson is gold and your playing is always inspiring!
Learned all my slide in standard from: Live at the Filmore. Yes, JACK PEARSON! Saw him live with the brothers. Very close to Duane.
I didn't think Duane played any slide in standard tuning? I know Warren Haynes and Dickey Betts does but I didn't think Duane did? You learn something new everyday.
@@bluzzedude2677 You’re right, Duane played slide mostly in open E tuning but there are some exceptions. Such as mountain jam and dreams.

Jack Pearson makes everything look so effortless....I also love that he plays Squier's on stage ! Thanks Dylan !!
He really does, looks like his fingers are barely moving while he’s playing. Don’t know how he gets the sound he does with such a light touch 🔥
He played a silvertone Jupiter the first night I saw him and it would have made Elmore James cry

You make this look too easy,Dylan! Worth the time and effort . Great video
Thank you Dylan for these wonderful tutorials. Ive been getting more and more into slide and I feel like I just 10X'd my playing in a night
Yes yes! You can't find this info anywhere else! Thank you for sharing!
I’ve always played in Standard so never thought about translating it like this! Thank you!
Im a legit Dylan Adams fan now. You've renewed my enthusiasm for learning slide, that I gave up on 20yrs ago. Please keep the tutorial videos coming man
You inspired me to pick up the slide man. Thanks. You should release some courses. You know how to teach pretty well.
Definitely plan to make courses, hopefully sooner than later!

So glad to hear the videos have helped!! 🤘🏻❤️
Really Great Man ❤❤❤
Now I can add Just Got Paid to my set without having to have another stupid guitar in open E!
Dylan u sound fantastic!!!
this is soo good.!
Dylan, could you teach some stuff off Ry Cooder’s Get Rhythm. All Shook up, The way you smell, have a ball
Brilliant, thanks man! That slide-on-the-pinkie thing's killing my confidence, but I've finally decided to give it a proper try...so, it's 'teach an old dog a new trick' kinda thing. :)
ps
Looking forward to the fretting behind (or is it in front) the slide in part two.
I like to play harp riffs with the slide in standard E.
keeps things simple and tasty.
Awesome! Great lesson and unreal playing!
Thanks so much! 🤘🏻

Hi Dylan. I am realy glad to have found you. How much does this particular slide weigh? In grams if possible, please. Greets from germany.
I've been playing the odd song in open G slide for years in our blues band, to give a different tonality, but I thought I'd try learning in standard tuning.

I think I saw another video from you on muting the strings while your playing slide 👍great stuff🎸
sorry, as i know pentatonic nor blues doesnt hit 4(fa) but this hit 4 note and sound's good
Im Standing at the crossroads🎸What a sound.
Thank you very much for this fantastic tutorial mate!!!! Yes, we can sound great in standard tuning too!!!!
Excelletn lesson here Dylan Adams !
I really like standard tuning the best. The p
Hey Dylan good stuff can you teach the solo you play with Rhett on whipping Post My band Asked me if I could give it a shot thank you
My goal this year is to get good at slide in standard tuning.
Great playing, great tutorials! Question, where did you get that cool looking custom tele? Gold foil in the neck and mini HB in the bridge?
Thanks so much! It’s a Mulecaster made by Mule Resophonic guitars, a hollow steel-bodied wood-necked Tele and it’s my favorite guitar! Two mini humbuckers actually, the neck pickup just has a cool looking foil-esque cover
Are you playing standard Eb? I swear when you say you are playing the 12 fret it looks like the slide is over the 13th.
Nope, E standard! It must be the camera angle
Great lesson Dylan. Love the tone!
GREAT lesson dude! I’m a full time player.. gigging all the time.. teach some private lessons….In other words I know how to play. But slide was always my Achilles heel. And since many of the bands I work with go through sets very quickly, I never have an opportunity to change to open tuned guitars etc.., and that was always my excuse for not learning

Thanks Dylan, you are God in Disguise, the same as a Waterfall, and birds are the Holy Spirit Veiled.
I had to slow the video down because I couldn't work out the "re-mix" of the Minor Pentatonic shape. But got it. Much more expression that way.
With Gratitude.
Thanks. I will give it a go.
Another really good video. I have always played slide in Standard. Occasionally I would play slide on "Non" slide tunes. Black Magic Woman, Freeway Jam, etc.Back in the day, most of us had one electric guitar. Changing back in forth was a hassle. And, we did not have tuners. Had an A 440 pitch fork. Vibrate it, put between your teeth and tune the a string. The rest off the A string....

I naturally learned to do the A chord way (or Warren Haynes as you described) but the way that you prefer is definitely eye opening and something I’m gonna try to add into my playing! Thanks a lot!
Excellent, thanks we need this ! Ah Jack Person is a wise man...who wants to rip off a squire ....he can manipulate any string instrument and sound the GOAT.
Is part 2 available ??????
Love your content and your playing. I think youtube is deeply lacking in dedicated slide content. My question for you, with slide on the pinky, do you see it as a problem that my pointer finger wants to fly off the fret board? I have middle and ring behind the slide deadening, but for whatever reason, my pointer wants to instinctively point perpendicular to the fretboard. I haven't started trying to play behind the slide, but I could see how the pointer finger would be a problem. I hope to try behind the slide before too long, But I have played slide on my ring finger for the past year. Pinky does not feel natural to me yet. Cheers.
I'm struggling with the sound moving from open to standard, but love having my go to versatility back. Thx for the vids.
I play in standard tuning and it is easy to play in the same way as playing in open tuning. On the three or four high strings are chords on one fret - for major (d/g/b) and minor (g/b/e/) or minor 7 (d/g/b/e).

Ah yes this is the one 👌🎸
I learned slide in standard from Warren and im glad you included it....I look at it as G shape and A shape I guess....awesome video and awesome slide playing Dylan
Outstanding lesson Dylan. When is Part 2 due to be released? Looking forward to seeing/hearing the continuation of this Part 1 video.
Thanks so much Dillon I’m an old guitar player who’s always played slides standard tuning your videos are very inspiring. Keep up the great work.
I have that same t-shirt
Thanks for a very helpful video. I just watched the Jack Pearson solo - wow!
so when descending, if it's one note per string, you would use your thumb to pick the note with the right hand.
more general: you use your thumb as the first finger when changing the string in a descending lick - even if it's more strings involved
is this principle correct? thanks in advance.
if this type of content/questions can be shared on Patreon, I am in.
execption is made in cases where there last note on adiacent string lasts more (eg you slide somewhere in the neck within that string): then you could use the index finger as first finger when descending to the next string (you do this on lick 3 btw)

Thanks so much, and I’m glad it made sense/was helpful! I honestly wasn’t sure whether or not I was just gonna confuse everyone with this weird version of the scale haha
Your Tele fretboard looks perfectly flat. Is that the case?
20” radius, so almost! I believe all of Mule’s stuff is that way, feels great to me as a usual 12” radius guy though
Thanks for the lesson, the peanatonic shape unlocks a variety of ideas!!
Excellent, patient instructions on how to play both in open E and standard. This is such a helpful resource!!!
Yessss. So Glad for this channel. Just in case you haven't heard this yet today, you are ridiculously good at this
helpful and insightful thank you. will you do a video on fretting/slide in standard at some point?
perfect timing on this one. been playing more slide recently and finally broke it out for a coupla tunes on a recent gig. really dig that minor pentatonic box - can also see how to easily swap between that and mixolydian. well done!
Where did you get that little slide. I think that’s what I need
It’s made by The Rock Slide, their standard Polished Brass Slide in a size small!
