| I've heard it numerous times and it sounds amazing but I have no idea what to call it or how to explain it. Other then the chords seem to kinda melt into each other as if you were detuning and it gets kind of a dragging feel into the next chord. Best example I can give is strike string 7 on fret 10 slide down to fret 9 then strike string 6 and slide down to fret 8. I love this sound but there is obviously some licks or a name for this technique. And I'm dying to know or learn more!! Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!! |

| Yes it does to an extent the application Im referring to is usually used with full grips I believe and kinda morphs into another chord sort of like a counterpoint but kinda gets a detuning kinda sound from point to point. I'll see if I can find a video of an example in a song |

I too would like to know what this is called. I use it as a passing chord/lick from V back to I, but I don't really know what I'm doing.
I think of it like this...In C for example...
At AB pedals down V chord position (fret 10), I start one fret above on 7 string (fret 11), slide back down one fret (fret 10), strike 6 then slide down two frets and engage E lower lever. Then you can strike string 5 and let off A pedal and you're at a V7. Hit string 4 and release E lever and B pedal, and you've resolved to the I chord. |

Not the exact move you're describing, Andy, but check out this video of Steve Palousek playing "I Love You So Much It Hurts Me". There is a LOT going on with a combination of pedal, knee lever, and bar moves to get that "syrupy" sound and smoothly "morph" from one chord to the next. Steve is a monster player...(don't ask me to tab this one out!)

Is this the lick you are talking about. Check out the very ending of this song. It has a lovely descending lick.

Bruce Bishop (or anyone else): In the Jimmy Church video, is he playing a Day set up?
When he mentions the A and B pedals, and you watch his ankle, something looks backwards. |

Love Steves playing and that is exactly what I'm talking about. I wish I could learn a few of those techniques. |
