Hi guys! So, yeah, Zoso1968 :wave: I love listening to the Allman Bros.' Statesboro Blues! Here's a link to their chords...

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.

man.. is that him on slide with the lp?

That is the wonderfully talented Warren Haynes (also lead guitarist for Gov't Mule and The Dead). I saw him perform with both The Allman Brothers and The Dead at the Gorge back in May. He played for a total of about five hours!
