The Rock Slide | Golden Age of Gear Ep. 43
This week, Joey and Derek dive deep into the world of slide guitar — and if you’ve ever wanted to learn how to actually play slide in tune, this is the episode for you. Joey breaks down everything from basic open E tuning and muting technique to vibrato tips that make your playing sing.
The guys also check out a full box of Rock Slide guitar slides that Danny Songhurst sent over — glass, brass, nickel, and of course Joey’s signature Rock Slide. They test them all, talk tone differences, and even give Derek a crash course in slide playing (with plenty of laughs along the way).
You’ll also get a sneak peek at why the Revv D20 – Joey Landreth Edition now ships with a Rock Slide included — the perfect way to start exploring slide for yourself.
Grab a beverage, hang out, and let us know in the comments which slide you prefer: glass, brass, or nickel?

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
