http://youtu.be/NDhelc64PKE Wayne Sorbelli here @ Island Guitar Key West playing some G blues with my glass finger - I call it "G String Blues"

**Johnny Winter inspired me to pick up and try to play slide guitar a long time ago, then years later Derek Trucks re-ignited my passion for it. **

**This is my 1994  Gibson Les Paul Custom that I purchased brand new, but one year old, in 1995. **

It was signed by Warren Haynes not long after I bought it,  then the Master Slide Legend Johnny Winter a few years later!!

**I ‘m stringing it as I usually do – with size 10-46 Strings. **

I’m not too partial to one brand or the other at the moment, as I see great qualities in a few brands and go back and forth depending on the tone I’m shooting for, or the mood I’m in.  GHS, Dunlop, Ernie Ball and DR are my go to favorites.

I tune it Standard Low to High EADGBe and sometimes Drop D for slide or finger playing.

Overall for feel and tone, I prefer using glass over metal slides – when I do want the CRISPY SHIVERS of metal on metal sliding, I prefer Brass to chrome.
