Quick question - what are the important things to do when setting up a guitar exclusively for slide? I'd guess, but I may be wrong:
1. Flat string radius (you know what I mean, so they are flat instead of arched with the neck radius).
2. Thick strings
3. Really high action
Also - how should one adjust the intonation on a slide guitar? Obviously, you don't want to push down at the 12th fret, so do you just match up the open note and the 12th fret harmonic?
Thanks,
