Guitar Slides FAQs


What is a guitar slide?


A guitar slide is a cylindrical musical tool typically made out of glass, brass, nickel, ceramic, or porcelain that allows you to play seamlessly across the guitar neck to create a distinct sound.

How do you use a guitar slide?


Start by placing whatever finger on your fretting hand feels most comfortable into the guitar slide, gently lay the slide on the strings — preferably on top of the frets — pluck a string, and move the slide around the neck to create melodies. This will take some time to learn and get used to, but, once you get the hang of it, it’ll be one of the most useful techniques in your arsenal.
