in technique and approach. Here are some common tricks and tips used by experienced slide players. We

Playing Positions:
The PowerSlide is a completely new idea in slide guitars. Our unique, patent-pending design allows for
multiple playing positions to accommodate an array of playing techniques. Our three-point “Y” strap allows
you to play “lap style” while standing up, where the shape offers many other playing options. Now that
you have hooked up your strap as shown on page 1, below are several different ways to play your new
PowerSlide.
Standing:
Sitting:
Horizontal

Horizontal
Inverted Vertical
Table Top
Using the three-point “Y” strap you
can play in the natural lap style
while standing up with the guitar
perpendicular to your body.
The bottom edge is shaped to allow
for playing in a seated position.
Using a standard two-point shoulder
strap, you can play the PowerSlide like
a standard guitar using a slide.
Of course, you can also play it like
a traditional lap steel guitar!
Some players position their steel guitar
like a standard guitar but their playing
hand reaches over top of the neck.
The PowerSlide has a at back so
you can also play it on a table top.
