Thread Name: Acoustic bottleneck blues
Subject: RE: Acoustic bottleneck blues
I bought an old small plywood faced Stella guitar at a pawnshop a couple of years ago. I meant to use it for camping. It needed some bridge work and I never had it strung until a week ago. When I strung it I realized it has a flat finger board, just right for playing slide. Now if I could just find my slide. Aw, heck, I got a ton of 3/4" copper pipe left over from plumbing, maybe I'll just make one.

I got it tuned in Spanish tuning, and I've been reacquainting myself with Willie Brown's "Future Blues" from Stephan Grossman's "Play Country Blues Guitar" book. So little time, so much to learn...
