I love slide guitars! They are actually very easy to play as they are usually tuned to open tuning. This Diamond Crown fretless CBG is tuned to GDg which is the default tuning for a 3 string cigar box guitar. This means that all you need to do to play chords is to lay the slide perpendicular to the strings above the fret markings. The more you play the easier it gets. Playing a fretless CBG will also make you a fantastic slide player because you can’t play fretted chords on a fretless guitar-no cheating:)
This ROLLING THUNDER guitar is loaded with a USA made ‘Gittybucker’ flat pickup. it is a fantastic pickup perfectly suited to playing slide blues and rock. Imagine playing along with Rose Tattoo, Cold Chisel or AC/DC with just a little practise.
