Title: The ultimate slide

So I purchased a slide from these guys. I must say, I'm entirely delighted. The process of buying is somewhat collaborative (they are very knowledgeable about slide guitar) and the final slide I received is very well made.

Its blend of the dimensions of my copper pipe slide and RockSlide, but with heavier and thicker bronze. The tone is excellent as is the sustain and its an absolutely perfect fit for me.

40euro isn't cheap for a slide in these Brexit times, but considering the results I find that price highly reasonable.

On a personal note - its rare I don't play with a slide at the moment.

Crikey! A little on the dear side, but hey, it's worth what you feel it's worth ultimately!

So this is your be all/end all slide? If so, I may pick up one of their steels...

Yes I definitely feel its worth it. The 'off the shelf' slides were fine and all, but the new slide is obviously better. Of course for a slide it helps having something the exact size that I want.

if I lost it, I'd order exactly the same again, I feel totally satisfied.
