Luxury Slide — Perfect for your Pinky
Diatonico 28.08.2021
If all you've ever known are cheap, Dunlop slides... You're in for a treat!

The brass is gorgeous to start with, no sad stainless tubes here.

The slide has some comforting weight to it, but not so much that it's burdensome.

The design is very ergonomic. One end of the slide has an open side to let you bend your finger. At the other end the walls gradually become thicker so that your finger fits snugly inside.

Then there's the notched side, which lets you use your ring finger to support your pinky.

You have full control over this slide when using it — it stays on your finger and you can add your ring finger for optimal precision.

The slide is perfect to put on your pinky (frankly it won't fit my other fingers). This gives you 3 other fingers that can still fret chords. However: I have slender fingers, so if you have thick stumps this slide might not fit.

Overall, very happy with this purchase. Yes, it's costs much more than 2 regular slides but it's worth it in playing comfort.

GREAT slide!
Raggo 18.09.2022
This one is a BRILLIANT slide with good tone.

I turn the "cutaway" away from the strings, to cover all 6 strings.
It's just my habit.

This slide gives very presice slide tone, and it sounds better than the thinner metal slides.

Ideal für den "Pinkie"
Teddy Boyd 29.11.2020
Sicherlich kein günstiger Slide, aber er bietet Vorteile, die den Preisunterschied rechtfertigen: Zuallererst ist da der Ausschnitt unten, welcher nach dem Aufsetzen dem Fingergelenk viel mehr Spielraum lässt und nicht, wie m.E. bei anderen Slides, den Finger zu sehr versteift. Dann ist da die Einkerbung, die hilft, den Slide mit dem Nebenfinger zu stabilisieren.
Mir gefällt auch das tight fit, das für Gitarren-Slides meiner Erfahrung nach extrem wichtig ist. Die Größe "Small" ist bei Männern mit durchschnittsgroßen Händen ideal für den kleinen Finger und auch einsetzbar für den Ringfinger. Ich habe diesen Artikel bewusst danach ausgewählt, weil ich den Slide nicht während des Spiels ein- und desselben Songs auf- und abziehen möchte. Und sitzt der Slide auf dem Pinkie, kann ich trotzdem nahezu alle Akkorde und viele R&B-Licks problemlos spielen. Bis dato habe ich das Produkt nur zuhause auf der Akustikgitarre und im Probenraum verwenden können, da bekannte Umstände ja keine Konzerte zulassen. Aber ich bin zuversichtlich, dass es mich "live" eher flexibler machen wird. Natürlich hat dieser Messing-Slide ein amtliches Gewicht. Gitarristen, die eher weniger mit dem kleinen Finger arbeiten, würde ich eine andere Größe empfehlen.

Finaly, the right one!
Amaury W 15.12.2020
After a few tries and error in searching for the perfect bottleneck I have settled for this one, it fits my pinkie just perfectly and seems to have been designed for my finger. It allows me to learn to slide and for everything riff I start to be comfortable with I always think to try with this.
I know that "my finger" is a very personal criteria, but if you're aware of your finger size and it fits with the width end length description, then go for it, no hesitation.
