Planet Waves Glass Slide, Small

I've a metal slide and it was too big and the sound was very sharp. However, this glass slide was perfect fit for my finger and it has a very rounded sound and I love it. I use it on an electric btw

Breaks easily

Its light and good but shattered into pieces with a drop.

Good product. Perfect fit. Just a little pricey.

Great weight, nice case to put in gig bag. High quality, sits on joint above knuckle so finger not encased in the thing like longer ones.

Buen producto

I bought this slide for a second guitar, open tuned. I wanted to be able to have a small slide in each guitar case for convenience. I already had a Planet Waves Glass Slide and have enjoyed using it for most of my open tuning blues songs as well as other genre. -- Stats ------------------------------------- Length: 1-15/16 inch [ 49.2mm ] Inside Diameter: 5/8 inch [ 15.87mm ] Outside Diameter: 1 Inch [ 25.4mm ] The glass slide, more precisely a 'boron silicate' slide, can be worn on my hand, on the pinky and third fingers, almost to the second knuckle. It fits securely and has never come loose or fallen off. I can not get the slide on the index or middle fingers and this was expected. I use a small slide instead of a full length for two reasons. First; I am able to move the small light glass slide around the fingerboard much faster. It is less cumbersome and lighter than a full length brass or steel slide. Second; I like the short slide for lead playing and, if need be, can move faster with more accuracy on the strings. I don't need to unnecessarily mute the other strings that are not in contact with the slide. I just feel more agile using the smaller slide for lead. I like the tone of the glass slide on my strings. Generally it sounds more crisp and bright even with Nickel strings on my electric and Phosphor-bronze on my Resonator. I recommend for those who have not tried other types of slides to also get a steel slide and a brass slide. Both tones are very different from the glass, which tends to provide a more clean tone in comparison. Steel can give a nasty old blues sound and brass has a mellow sound, all things being equal among the three. I give this slide 5 stars because simply works well. It is nicely polished, there are no sharp edges anywhere on the slide, and has a smooth inside surface. I have purchased other Planet Waves items and find their workmanship very good to excellent. I believe this slide will follow in the footsteps of my other purchases. ------------------------------------------------- NOTE: Want a small slide for your index or middle fingers?

C’est un lot de 5, ce que je n’avais pas vu. Ils font exactement la largeur du manche, donc difficile de porter sur toutes les cordes en même temps J’ai dû les retourner, trop étroits pour mes doigts
