Default acoustic slide guitar for beginners book

Can't seem to find anything on Google.
Does anybody knows a good book for OPEN G acoustic slide guitar for beginners (from the grounds up)?

Thanks!

I haven't come across a "book" for slide guitar. There are numerous on line lessons but they are not always the place for a beginner.

Have you considered one of Mel Bay's lesson plans for lap steel?

Default David Hamburger

I dunno about open G but this David Hamburger book/CD gets very good reviews: http://www.amazon.com/Acoustic-Guita...dp/1423445783/

I have a couple of other David Hamburger books and DVD's and I really like his teaching style.

Arlen Roth has a great book that covers it pretty well. Here's a link to it on Amazon:

Wood,

Get both of these books and you'll be cookin' in no time flat. It's a fun ride.

I find copies of Arlen Roth's book at used bookstores all the time. Mine cost me under $2. It's more than just G. It also covers D.
