Chris,

Thanks for the follow-up.  I received my slide yesterday.  This thing is SWEEEET!  Good weight to it and sized to my pinky perfectly....not to mention a nice color!  I put it on and was instantly transformed into Warren Haynes.  The opening licks of John the Revalator sprang forth and I had never even tried to learn that song before.
 
Thanks again.  Great product and good service.

Hey. I just wanted to let you guys know that my slide fits just perfect!  It sounds way better than the crappy brass one i had been using and any other glass ones i've used before. Thanks so much for providing such an awesome product with specialized sizing and color ways.  Im so stoked on the way it plays and i hope you guys continue to expand your business!  Thanks again! peace.- Jacob Steffenhagen

Chris,

The slide arrived today. The fit is absolutely perfect………..almost like you measured my finger.

Thanks, John Cooley

Chris,
Gave the new slide a workout last night. I don't know what the composition of your glass is, but the tone is fantastic. Although I have a tri-cone, I play mostly on my National wood body Estralita, and the sound from this slide is the best I've heard..........plus I love the interior taper.
 
Thanks for a great product.

Oh and Chris………you choose the color for this second one J.  My favorite slide guitar is my National Estralita, and my SilicaSound and I just finished wearing out a set of strings. Man, this glass has such a sweet tone…….makes me want to go down to the levee and play for pocket change and cheap wine.

Cheers, John

From:


Your shorty slides are great pinky slides.  The extra taper at the end
makes them comfortable and controllable, and makes intonation and tone so
much easier.  The light weight also helps when you're playing a normally
strung low action guitar.  Keep 'em coming!  I've bought them at Haight Ashbury and Gelb
Music several times over the last few years and have some spares now.  Imo,
they feel and play much better than the slides I've compared them to, which
have been quite a few.

Happy holidays, to you, too!

Hi Chris,

…just wanted to let you know that I got the slides OK and they are awesome!...

BTW…the sound, feel and craftsmanship are amazing. I never thought I would ever prefer glass over metal. Now that I have glass slides that fit, I’ll never go back…thanks Chris.

Thanks,

Hey, I wanted to drop you all a line to say thanks for the great slides.  I have two and have been using them for a few years now.  Lots of folks ask about them... ...Anyway, take care and I attached a pretty cool photo of me using a Silica slide that I thought you might like.

Hi Chris,
Curtis Oeser down in Texas, My bud Drew Schneider in Sahomish, Wa. sent me one of your shorty slides and I loved it, used nothing else...until today when I dropped it and it met a tragic death.
 
I'd like to buy two shorty's from you, what do I need to do?
 
Thanks,

Hey I have a couple of your medium tapered slide my good friend Pedro Arevalo from Dickey Betts and Great Southern gave me. First I fell in complete love with them. I have used 100's of slides (seriously) and have never felt one as comfortable as yours... I have a busy schedule putting me on the road for 200+ days a year with several acts including Chef Dave Band, Greg Erwin & Friends, multiple studio sessions, Doug Belote Trio as well as sitting in with various groups which include Devon Allman's Honeytribe, Johnny Neel & Criminal Element, etc... If you could help me out it would be much appreciated. Thanks for your time

Subject: Thank you Thank YOU

Hello Chris, Thank you so much for the slides. They are amazing. Killer unique design so it does not slip off the finger... It it easier to play some chordal stuff if it is shorter. They really are the most amazing slides I have used. I will tell everyone about them. Thank you soooooooo  much. Looking forward to meeting you when we play San Fran ( next year some time ).

Take care,

Christopher Thorn (Blind Melon)
