Innovative Brass Slide Offers Best of Both Worlds
The AXYS Reversible Guitar Slide from Shubb is a unique slide that offers players the best of both worlds. The AXYS slide is made from durable brass and has an open design on one side that lets you reverse it and fret the strings as you normally would without a slide. The base of the AXYS Reversible Guitar Slide is made from Delrin plastic and acts as a ring that allows the slide to easily rotate on your finger when you want to make the switch. Because of this innovative design, players can make the switch easily with one hand by simply using their thumb. For this one-handed switch, Shubb recommends placing the AXYS slide on your ring finger. Guitarists here at Sweetwater have used the AXYS Reversible Guitar Slide and were amazed by both its tone and easy reversibility.

Legendary tone
The world of slide has seen the use of just about every type of material imaginable. From glass to stone to plastic to steel, players have tried out myriad materials in the search for the perfect sound that fits their style. For decades, guitarists from blues to rock have loved the tone of a brass slide. Brass slides have become legendary for their unique tonal signature — full, thick, and musical with plenty of lower tone as a foundation for the chimey higher end that slide playing is known for.
