    About this ebook

    In this first volume of Bottle Neck Blues by Rick Payne you'll be learning the basics of slide guitar playing. If you've never tried it before it can be at once quite tricky but also an immediate way of sounding just like the old bluesmen Robert Johnson, Son House and many more. You'll have the chance to get your hands on some of the techniques that are necessary to achieve the authentic sounds of the slide guitar. There are lots of exercises and riffs to try all in the blues style.
    So, lets get down to some serious sliding! All exercises are supported by video.
