it's been said that he used a very strange, unique technique that people can't even know wether he is sliding or bending.
unluckily there wasn't any video recorded at his show to be refered.

Awesome guitarist. One of my favorite players. Had the pleasure of seeing him in concert before he died. He did have a unique style. Never used any effects, just his guitar and an amp. He played an old Tele, I believe it was a '52 or '53. He was using pinch harmonics back in the early 60's before anyone new what they were. He also used the volume knob a lot. He'd turn the volume all the way down, hit a note(or 2) then slowly turn the volume up. He'd also use the tone knob turning it from bass to treble getting a wah effect. Basically that's what a wah wah does anyway. A guitar player friend of mine knew Roy personally and told me when he used to go see Roy play in the small clubs in Maryland, Roy used to turn his back to him whenever he did something unusual so he couldn't steal it from him. Roy ended up showing him some things and he in turn showed them to me. What a treat for me. I think you can find some videos of Roy on youtube.
