A little piece of Jacob Raagaard’s “Felina,” as a small tribute to his work in creating a place where we can share our passion for slide guitar🙏🏻

By Zach Moulton / Silverada

One of their “medium hits” in the USA. Uses the same tuning as Shout (Tears 4 Fears) — CGDGCD.

Don’t worry about the black thumbnail. It fades in quickly

By Jacob Raagaard on my converted Fender parlor guitar

Here’s a WIP arrangement of the Tears For Fears tune. Hardest part is the harmonics in the middle. Still working on it

Tuning: EGDGBD. This is my “standard pop tuning” because you can play both major and minor chords

Tuned in CGDGCD. The trickiest part to figure out was around 1m15s

This is a Weissenborn arrangement of an old bagpipe song I first heard while in boarding school in Edinburgh. Jacob helped me transcribe it to slide. I love how naturally the instrument pairs with the drone of a bagpipe.
