The "sixteenth slide note thing" Is actually a thing called "glissando" or "descending gliss" which is star of the show in style of Don Wilson's "Tekke-Tekke" rythum guitar in which any guitar with dual P-90 pickups in the Middle position (best choice is Fender Jazzmaster) may be used paired up with a Fender tube powered amplifier with inbuilt spring reverb set high to get that "oil drip" when the low E and A strings are palm muted.

This was actually quite a good lesson. I played the guitar for the first time today and this is what I decided to play and I managed it with your video.

Nice lesson, thanks. Shows you can get that surf sound with any guitar and good facial expressions when humming the solo!

Pipe line is by the Ventures

[@spottedsaint5776]

Nope ,it's by The Chantays.

[@oddkin13]

Okay you start at the 20th fret for the slide........... And also why are you using an Ibanez for surf???

[@johnsteelman6980]

Hello oddkin13 , the slide is on the A string......

[@spottedsaint5776]

Maybe to him it's a cheaper alternative to a Gretch and he's on a tight budget, although hollow body guitars weren't a thing during the ORIGINAL era of surf guitar. It was usually a Fender Stratocaster or some other Fender variant, of course Danelectro and Mosrite guitars were popular too. I've seen pictures of Link Wray playing a Gibson Les Paul ,but he ditched it for a Gibson SG. Why criticize the man's gear? It works and you're not paying for the lesson so...

[@jungoko2886]

감사합니다.^^

[@loswolvesofoxnard513]

Turn the reverb up dude. And get that telecaster for this or a les Paul studio

[@eliseobragadocontillo6770]

I play this with some modifications of course

[@johnsteelman6980]

The sliding gliss is on the A string

[@maddenmadness]
