I have an electric mandolin (put together myself, actually--pretty cool) and I currently have it in an open A tuning: (first to fourth) E-A-C#-A. I mess around with slide on it. I play some blues, but I'm out of ideas.
What songs can I play using electric slide mando? I can, of course, change to different tunings. I like open A though. Sounds bright and rock 'n' roll-ish.
Ideas?
Zeppelin When the Levee Breaks
Listen to anything by David Lindley with his own band or with Jackson Brown or listen to Ry Cooder. Plenty of slide licks to steal right there.
