Slide guitar doesn’t have to mean open tunings 👀 That’s Ariel Posen’s take—and we agree.

If you’re just getting started, standard tuning might actually be the better place to begin. You already know the fretboard—so instead of learning everything from scratch, we can focus on what really matters: the technique.

Because that’s the real challenge with slide…not the tuning.

Once it feels good under your fingers, then explore open tunings for those unique voicings and sounds.

Start simple. Build control. Then expand 🎸
