Weissie - Slide Tab Repository and Chords/Scales

From CaseyHunter on 9/20/2012 12:11:50 PM

Does anyone have any other resources related to Weissie appropriate tunings, such as tab, lessons, chords, theory, scales,etc. I would love to have a master repository, since it seems like slide music is few and far between.

Here are the ones I know of:

Resohangout:

It has a a few open D and open C tabs.

Rob Anderlik:

Instructional Vids and some tabs

Lessons with Troy:

Definitely a few gems in here that sound pretty dang good on a weissie. There was a rumor floating around that he may make some weissie specific vids in the future...all conjecture at this point but would be nice. He has a great style of teaching.

Open D Chord Charts:

These make more sense for a round neck player, but, they are helping me get a little better knowledge of my open d chord library. I really wish I could find one that was specific to a player using a slide.

Scalerator

Awesome scale generator for any tuning and scale type. It does a great job, just wish I was smart enough to know how/when to use the scales. lol

Mugglinworks:

This is all basic music theory that is helping me out a ton.

Ben Harper Tab:

Has some of the slide songs tabbed out, pretty good if you like Ben and know the album/song.

I know I have found a few more out there, just don't seem to find them in my favorites.

Let me know if you have anything else. I would love more of the slide/technique and slide theory stuff.

Thanks,

Casey

	jimbob says: 9/20/2012 12:45:38 PM Thank you Casey. You are certainly better organised than I am. As Jim B. it is nice to have all these in the one message. I will now make a folder and file them away. jimbob
	Liz Williams says: 9/23/2012 12:26:57 PM Thanks, Casey. I don't have any to add either, and I do with someone would put together an open D chord chart for steelers. Someone that isn't me. :-)
	Matt says: 10/12/2012 5:45:30 AM Liz, did you know that Troy has lesson that covers over 100 chords in Open D Tuning and they are all documented over three pages of tab? See here: lessonswithtroy.com/dobro_less...OBRO.html Thanks for the resources Casey. Another site to add to the list is drewdotcom.com, it includes some tab: drewdotcom.com/hollowneck/tabs...html#tabs - as well as tips on bar technique, picking and blocking, tunings, melody, intonation, timing and some information on chords: drewdotcom.com/hollowneck/tips...tion.html
	Liz Williams says: 12/8/2012 5:54:26 PM Matt, I hadn't seen your addition to this thread. I've gotta gets Troy's 100 chord lesson. Thank you for that and for drewdotcom - that's a new one. May as well put this here too: There are 2 pieces of software for slowing down video and/or audio without changing the pitch. I use Transcribe (for mac or windows), and Amazing slow downer for windows only.
