Hi! I'm Ed Dowling from eddowling.com, author of a book on open tunings. I'm here to talk about the covering and uncovering slide guitar techniques on behalf of expertvillage.com. Talking about covering and uncovering strings. I'm using finger picks. You don't need them. You can use a flat pick; you can play with your own fingers. The nature of open tunings is such that...Let's fret this on the 2nd fret. Now I'm going to pull the slide back and uncover this high string, and it's going to make another chord because I'm not making the true A chord. I'm going to end up uncovering 3 of these on the 2nd fret. Let's see what happens here. I'm only playing 3 and 3 are uncovered. Let's do another one. I'm covering and uncovering the high string here. Let's do a really strange one. Covering and uncovering; it's a real nice technique. Here's the last covering and uncovering rift, which you can use all the time. On the 12th fret let's do. This is from a song. Now here we go. Starting with them all fretted and uncovering one at a time. Covering and uncovering; it's a nice technique.
