Thanks Ian,

Glad you liked it. The key to slide playing is damping the strings you don't want to sound. Just like every technique practice, practice , practice.

Other traditional instruments? Well, a Leadbelly style 12 string and a short scale Martin 6 string. I used the latter on the version of "Sweet Home Chicago" that is linked on the post titled "Melodyne Beta Test". My oldest guitar is a 1978 Guild F50 which makes it vintage, but maybe not traditional if I get your meaning.

I tried the "vinyl" thing once , but I hated covering up the guitar tones so I never did it again.
