What the slide is made of doesn't matter....,
This review is from: BigHeart Mojo Medicine Bottle Guitar Slide
... it's what you're using it on. Are you playing electric, acoustic, resonator, or lap guitar, with steel, nickel, bronze, or phospor bronze strings? What gauge strings do you use? Not to mention your personal playing style, size of your hand, etc. There's nothing wrong with a glass slide, but it might not be right for YOU. Go to a music store, try out all the slides they have on your guitar, and get the one that sounds best to you.

This review is from: BigHeart Mojo Medicine Bottle Guitar Slide
fits well on my ring finger and sounds good. Glass in my opinion does sound better than metal. I wish this was a little less money tough, 4.99 would be much more reasonable. I mean really, it's just a tiny jar.

Feeling is just not there,
This review is from: BigHeart Mojo Medicine Bottle Guitar Slide
I remember during the Blues resurgence of the late 80's and early 90's, every started looking for 'Coricidin bottles'. Guitar magazines were giving Duan Allman more press almost 20 years after his death than they ever did while he was alive, and among the trivia of his life that was revealed was his use of these littles glass medicine bottles as slides. So, not being one to be out of the loop, I got one. And hated it.Slides are funny things. Each material has it's own tone. Steel sounds different from glass, which sounds different from brass, which sounds different from bone...and so on. Weight had a lot to do with the tone as well. A light slide sounds thin, a heavy slide gives a fuller tone. This slide...well, it just sounds dull. I'm not sure if it's the closed top, the fact it's a bit unwieldly for those of us with short fingers or what, but it just sounds dull to my ears. I remember being so excited to debut it at a New Year's Eve show back in 1995 and also so glad that I had my regular brass slide half way through the first song. Glass just doesn't do it for me. One last thing: if you sing and play slide, be VERY careful adusting your mic or grabbing the mic stand while wearing this thing. It will shatter and put you out of commission for at least a few shows if you are not careful! Tone is in the ear of the listener. I say go with brass.
