I should've read the ring size information because this was way too big for me. I'm a ring size 8 or so but this came in size 11.5. The slide works fine but you have to be very careful with it. It fell off my couch at a height of about 1 foot and it broke.

The shipping for this product was great: it came days earlier than it said it would.

Glass makes the absolute clearest sound for a slide guitar (hence the name "bottleneck"). Dunlop makes only quality music gear. I ordered one of these from B&G Music here on Amazon. Thanks to the USPS it arrived broken despite being packed well. My child has a computer fetish and likes to enter my feedback on Amazon. I had also ordered a slide of brass from another seller. The brass slide arrived first and she asked about "the slide" and entered positive feedback on the glass instead of brass. The glass slide arrived a couple of days later, broken on arrival, and I contacted the seller. Despite feedback already being entered indicating otherwise B&G Music shipped me another slide no charge that same day.

Now, the slide is fantastic, fits well and is silky smooth in finish. So it sounds great on my Epiphone Masterbilt. Poorly finished or rough glass sounds horrible - not the case here. If you have never used a slide I would advise getting a size you may feel is too large for a variety of reasons.

The price on this slide was great and so was the seller. I highly recommend B&G Music. They rock the house!
