Its possible to play slide on a Nashville tuned guitar but
you certainly couldn’t lay in to it with a heavy slide like you can on a
tricone with fat strings tuned to open D or G. I’d go with the later to
really experience what a tricone has to offer a bottleneck J though Nashville would sound cool
on a resonator guitar, talk about chimey…ZIIIING. Save your pennies and
get a (used, if you can find one) baby taylor
or little martin for the Nashville
tuning. Smaller body guitars can bring out the zing in a Nashville tuning. If you try it, use a glass
or lighter weight slide to match the thinner strings.
