Im still not sure about that tab,.

it does look like the slide stays on the 4..angles up for the 5 and angling back for the 3.
dunno sorry.

bar chatter is somewhat normal. listening to slide recordings I ususally hear some bar slap . makes it authentic. maybe.]]> Slide and Alternate tunings dogbite https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/bar-chatter/#post-128162 https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/bar-chatter/#post-127233 Fri, 23 Sep 2005 02:52:58 +0000
I didn't know about that type of slant and pivot, I'll have to give it a try. Thanks. Any more ideas? Anyone?]]> Slide and Alternate tunings Primeta https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/bar-chatter/#post-127233 https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/bar-chatter/#post-127229 Fri, 23 Sep 2005 02:32:04 +0000
that last measure where one note stays on 4 with the 5 and 3 on the string above it looks like you anchor the slide on the 4 then pivot from 5 to 3.

forgive me I not too good with TABS. also I dont have my lap steel right here.


you mentioned bar chatter. I dont see where the bar would chatter; but then I play lap steel and the frets are about a mile below the strings.

on my acoustic, not really set up for slide, I get chatter . just a bit. it's acceptable because it sounds natural.


as I experience more and more slide work I have learned that the bar doesnt have to stay on the strings all the time.
I lift off. there is a bit of a buzz when I put the bar down on a vibrating string. I am learning to pick block and palm mute to illiminate that.

many great players use a bullet bar. its great for single note runs as the bar tip is the only part on the string.

if you are playing finger style bottle neck then I apologize becaue I might have wasted your time.

Any finger position tips? Ive been leaving my hand in place and stretching to reach the far notes.
6 eigth notes and a quater note


Any suggestions about the mechanics of lifting tilting the bar?]]> Slide and Alternate tunings Primeta https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/bar-chatter/#post-11920
