Lockdown Licks no. 233. “LL,s Delta Slide Blast licks” by Lockdown Licks. Played on a 1980s white Stratocaster tuned to ‘open E’ on mid pick up setting. Using a NUX M8 amp set to ‘superlead’ with gain backed off to 4 and a touch of reverb. A tapered glass slide used on pinky finger.
Slide doesn’t have to be played clean on an acoustic, eg Dobro, which of course is very cool too!
Playing an electric guitar with an ‘action’ slightly higher than usual and a ‘tube screamer’ sound can be used in a heavier style. Turn it up and you can stun the noisiest of drummers n shredders into surrendering!
