I was with bbc this past weekend visiting her sister and family in Yarmouth, Maine. bbc's 12 year old niece had received a guitar for Christmas and is new to guitar playing. I was showing her some guitar playing techniques and eventually discussed open tunings. After retuning to open G and playing some tunes, I mentioned playing with a slide. A search of the family room failed to produce anything suitable to use for a slide until I found the tv remote, the edge of which was marginally acceptable. My new concept I affectionately call "Remote Control Slide Guitar." Has anyone else out in Mudcatland recently had a similar experience? Best Regards, Duane.
