Hi, I'm Kirk Lorange, and I love playing slide guitar! Click on the titles in the player to listen to some of my Dropped-D slide tracks. Some were taken from my album 'No Apostrophe', some are solos I overdubbed to mp3 backing tracks that float around the Internet, a couple are home-recorded originals and a few are covers of some old tunes. Below are some videos of my slide playing too, all in standard or dropped D. |

 If you like what you hear, and would like to know how to do it, I've finished the 'How to play Slide Guitar in Standard and Dropped-D Tunings' DVD. It's a 70 minute demo and explanation of the art, one that allows you to combine both normal and slide into one very spicy hybrid style.
 I make good use of the overlay feature of the video editing software (picture on the right) to make it very clear how to find all the bits and pieces that allow you to play slide in standard tuning. You'll find out how standard tuning is in fact a bunch of mini open-tunings, all living side by side on the fretboard, and how all flavors of chords--major, minor, major 7th, minor 7th, sus4, 9th, 7th, 11th, augmented, diminished--can be played in full or at least strongly alluded to. Of course, if you can see chords, you can also see melody and harmony.
I have set up a private forum here at BottleNeckGuitar.com for those who have bought the DVD where I can answer any questions you may still have and where you can download the tab and backing tracks I use in the video.
