The Rock Slide Polished Brass Slide - Small

These are amazing slides. The key, I think, is the tapered inner diameter, the cut out for the first knuckle and that little hitch on the outside near the top for a “helper” fingerAll of this gives you fantastic control over the slide. Very please and have also purchased the glass and ceramic versions as well !

I have a few slides from Rock Slides which I won as part of a giveaway package. None of the fit, so I got this one and it’s perfect.

Everyone looks for different things in a slide. Within one's own parameters, mass/weight seems to be the constant that everyone wants. For a small slide this has decent mass, it's tapered inside so it stays in the same spot on my pinky the entire time I'm playing, and the groove on the side helps my ring finger stay close to my pinky, which makes it more stable for me. The only draw back of this slide is it is too short to cover all of the strings at once. if Rock Slide made a small with a longer body I would buy it in a New York minute.Also I've tried their glass version of this size. I like it but it has less mass and a larger outer diameter, so feel is reduced without the benefit of added mass. Tone wise the glass may be just a tad warmer.

I was expecting it to be both longer and larger diameter.That being said, it fits my pinky well and stays in place when fretting chords, it’s a Rockslide, I will keep it in my collection and order a medium.

I love this slide. The weight is perfect. The tone of the brass is fantastic. The notch for your knuckle is great. Great slide !!
