Signature Glass Slide from Dunlop

Derek Trucks has been making a name for himself as a virtuoso slide player since age 11. With the Dunlop Derek Trucks Signature Slide, you can experience a taste of Derek's signature tone and style. This medicine-bottle-style slide is fashioned after the slide Trucks has used exclusively for years. The heavy glass of the Trucks Signature produces pristine, bright, piercing tones from your treble strings, as well as warmer tones from your bass strings. Sweetwater guitarists have auditioned this stellar slide and found it be a spot-on representation of Derek's very own slide.

Dunlop Derek Trucks Signature Slide Features:

  • Heavy glass slide produces stellar bright tone on the treble strings and warm tone on the bass strings

Reviews

Great slide
I have had this for a while and decided to get a course on slide guitar. I have brass pinky and this for the ring finger. Right now, this is much easier to handle and I love the sound. I wear a size
10 or so ring and this is perfect. I thought it was too large but once my finger warmed up it was perfect. Recommended.
Dunlop Derek Trucks Signature Glass Slide
I didn't need another slide. But I just had to know. Well, found out . Glad that I bought two ! Thank You Dunlop( I own lots of Your slides!) Thank You Sweetwater and Jared Kalish for the usual Five Star Customer Service yet again, and Thank You Derek Trucks for the years of Joyful Noises!

Best glass slide I’ve tried
I've owned and still do own a lot of slides but I'd never tried a Coricidin bottle and so when I was looking to get my first I went with this one because I figure Derek already knows a thing or two about them. So after trying it I'm completely sold, it's true what I read about the right combination of wall thickness and overall mass, there's just something about it that makes it easier to get great tone out of it. If you're looking for a great glass slide then I can highly recommend this one, go for it, you won't be disappointed.
Music background: Blues based music of all genres.
"this is my favorite"
I don't like using stuff that has other people's names on it. However, I was watching/reading an interview in which Mr. Derek Trucks was asked about his slide choice. When talking about this slide he said something along the lines of "they (Dunlop) got the weight right." The more I thought about that: the more curious I got, so of course I ordered one. I really like it. I can't quite articulate why I like it so much, but despite not liking to use stuff with other people's names on it, this is my favorite slide to use. I even purchased an extra. Cheers!
