First coming on GMC after a few looks on your work on the site which decide me to subscribe.
A one penny question : do you avoid sound of other strings with right, left or both hands ?

Thanks man!
As you said, you could mute unwanted string noise with both hands.

Hi GMC!
Today we gonna play some slide guitar over a classic twelve bar blues progression in the key of E.
The guitar is tuned in standard tuning.
Some important tips when playing with a bottleneck :
- To get the correct pitch, the note is sounded by placing the slide above the fret.
- Mute unwanted notes/noise with your picking hand and keep the fingers behind the slide to mute strings.
- Don't press too hard on the strings.
I mainly use the E pentatonic minor scale:
