.
So I've been working with the slide alot lately for one of our new songs..
And I have a question for you slide users....
Are there bad habits I can develop, ? Or is it just =make it sound right=?
I've read alot about this and I know about the dampening and the slide position.
But I'm finding I get the best results from angling the slide to where the edge of the slide (where my finger is underneath) is whats making contact and making the notes. Almost like I'm fingering the notes without the slide.. For cleanest notes and dampening, this is working the best.
As much as I've tried, having the slide flat across sounds like a royal mess. I'm in the early stages of learning this though.
so , bad habit ? or "if it sounds good it is good" ?
(I'm also finding that if I don't look at the fretboard my tones are more on pitch ! I just slide around and find the notes I want.)
thanks
