@@TropicalLatitude thanks for checking it out - agree re audiences!

Hey Matt - I just decided a while back that I was going to make this work, and it doesn't take long for your technique to adjust :-)

Thanks for checking it out - try it out - hope you'll find it helpful!

Yo indeed! Hey there - I'm in standard tuning :-)

Thanks for the support and checking it out!

Ah, it's the drumming that makes it!

Yep - it's my 1964 Silvertone 1457 - love this thing - cheap and cheerful but sounds and plays great!

Thanks for checking it out - appreciate the support!

Thanks for checking it out Brad! This is a controversial one for sure... I only ever mute with my right hand (at least consciously). I don't really play acoustic so it may be a different thing for that, and at the end of the day it's personal preference. I just prefer the sound, and once I realised that Ry Cooder (and Joey Landreth, and David Tronzo and lots of my other heroes) didn't do it either, that was good enough for me :-)

@@onefingerguitarist Well said! Thanks for the great tips you’re sharing with everyone.

Thanks for checking it out, appreciate the support! 🙂

Ha ha! Thanks Rod :-)

Thanks Rod, glad you found it useful - it’s fun! Appreciate the support as ever my friend!

Thanks so much Dave, hugely appreciated!

Thank you - that's very kind! I just keep working on this stuff every day and hope it makes a difference...

Thanks for checking it out Tim - it’s a lot of fun! Ask away if you have any questions... Ha ha - I’m sticking with the One Finger name for now 😀

Thank you 🙏🙏 Charlie!

@@Odyss-d2p go for it!

Thanks Matt!

Thank you 🙏 Happy sliding!

@@BottleneckMoses I only use the slide on my pinky - mine’s the Joey Landreth model - fits great for me. I also use a custom-sized glass Diamond Bottlenecks slide - love it!

@@onefingerguitarist okay, thanks - great to know 🙂

Thanks for your support and for checking it out 🙂

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it - I'll have a think about that one 🙂

Thank you! and thanks for checking out the video :-)

Thanks so much Rod, you're very kind! Appreciate your support as ever. Cheers from across the ditch :-) DK

I honestly never considered slide as a jazz vehicle - until now. So perfectly suited to the task! Super tasty, my friend.

@@davidgunter4308 thanks so much David - glad you liked it, and the idea!

Thanks - will check it out!

Thank you, much appreciated!

Thanks so much David, really appreciate it!

Thank you, appreciate you checking it out and glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks for checking it out and the comments! Yes, this was largely unscripted, so there are definitely things not in the handouts that can be helpful to note down 🙂

Wow, wish I'd seen him with Hiatt - though we talked lots about those times. He used to use a National with overdrive, along with a Cort headless guitar. Amazing.

@@onefingerguitarist , it may have been a one-off show with Tronzo in the band, not sure, because he never played on any of Hiatt's records that I'm aware if. There were two guitar players on the stage that night, besides Hiatt! I don't remember which particular record Hiatt was touring to support, or who else was in the band, partly because I'd seen him so many times over the years. I first saw him on the Slow Turning tour with Sonny and the Goners, opening for Robert Cray ---- who is dull and boring IMHO ---- , and ever since then I always made it a priority to go out of my way, as necessary, to see him play. I saw him 4 times on the Perfectly Good Guitar tour, along with my wife to be on one of our earliest dates, and she became a huge fan. Sadly, Hiatt's voice is but a shadow of what it used to be, and so we skipped the last couple tours, preferring to remember him as he was. Sonny was never a strong singer either and his voice has definitely gotten weaker, but we go to see him more for the guitar playing, and the instrumentals, than for his singing. Saw him last year and he was great!

@@goodun2974 sounds great - I think Tronzo took over after Ry and Hiatt had a falling out - I believe after the Bring The Family record, but not absolutely sure...

No, just the guitar, though I know about the set. I've got enough amps already 🙂

@@onefingerguitarist, the matching amp/case was somewhat Champ-like in execution; but the single-pickup 1449 had a very different, cheesy, low-power and electrically dangerous amp. The single pickup guitar is fine, but the amp design is a "widowmaker", a transformerless "AC-DC" circuit with a hot chassis, no power transformer, and about 1.5 watts of audio output power. A 50-50 change of getting badly shocked from your guitar strings!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the support!
