The Rock Slide Polished Brass Slide - Extra Large Reviews
The Polished Brass Rock Slide is designed and carefully crafted with your needs as a player taken into careful consideration. The Rock Slide is simply unmatched in comfort, thanks to the design's contoured finger rest and knuckle cutaway. And the slide's tapered interior ensures a uniform fit along your whole finger, adding stability and control to your slide performances. And the slide's polished brass material is legendary for its gritty feel and cutting sustain, making your passages jump out.
Heavy as Sin
Bought it, tried it, haven't given up on it (Yet!) but I may soon. It's heavy as sin. The interior is tapered (thin at the knucle, and much thicker at the tip.) causing moe weight out at the tip.
I have large fingers, and intended to use this XL size on my little finger. I found it to be so heavy (especially at the tip) that it us hard to control. It's difficult to control touching on the strings, and it's difficult to keep from hitting the frets and buzzing out the note(S).
I do like the knuckle relief, but I have re-worked (increased) the edge radius for better comfort.
You may find the weight characteristics to your liking, but I personally don't.
