Maybe, one day, you give me a tutorial on slide guitar--Dickey Betts style. Wish I could do that! haha.
↓ Play the C7 like this. But play the red C7 when you feel like doing the fancy, nice melody descent, almost like they do. In other words, when you're transitioning from C7 to G7. Play the notes on G string, in this order the red, orange then green, then open. Then onto the G7 chord.
