    Is there a benefit to lighter vs heavier slides for beginners? Does one make playing slide easier? Thank you Marty!

    Marty you did get good at slide, I think it was a video several years ago you made with Criss playing some Allman Brothers and you were playing great. 👍😎✌️
  • @pablo-vz4ez

  • @WhySoLoud
    I love the sound I get from glass, BUT I'm so clumsy and got tired of dropping and breaking them, moved on to brass. That sick feeling just as you see your glass falling to the floor, like ah crap.
  • That’s hilarious my slides literally just came in I open YouTube and this pops up😂
