Pretty cool article. Been playing open E for slide but, I think I'll have a go at open G, D & C.

Mind blown! What tuning do you use the most?
Been meaning to permanently set up one of my guitars for slide but, I can't bring myself to committing any of my current guitars. May have to buy a cheap Gibson.

Sort of like the intro to Stairway to Heaven and Spirit's song, Taurus?
Jimmy had no shame when it came to borrowing ideas!
