Big Size SLIDE
« on: November 21, 2007, 10:50:52 AM »
ive been looking for slides for quite a while now i cant seem to find something that fits my finger. Ive tried the ones in JB i think its dunlop or ernie ball, thing is, it fits my finger but its just to tight and it gets pretty difficult to remove. are there other sizes of slides that are available in the market? If yes, where can i purchase it and what brand? Im really getting into country music now and its the only thing hindering me from playing such.

thanks

ah, ako pag pinapasok ko sa masikip ginagamitin ko muna ng KY jelly. minsan, laway na lang, DIY-style! 

ooops!  ibang topic ata to.

look for the large or medium ones from Dunlop.

medyo bihira lang dito.  or try a Latch Lake Delta Classic medicine bottle slide. i think someone's selling one sa classifieds...  ;-)

thanks for the reply sir delta. im gonna hunt for this. ah and about the latch lake, whats the diameter of that? and is it as smooth as a regular slide? you did mention that its a medicine bottle thingy. and from the looks of it it seems as if it still has that thread for the the cap. sorry for my ignorance.

Find a deep socket wrench that fits your finger, seriously. John Hammond uses that. They're pretty thick and surprisingly resonant.

DIY kanalang bro... hanap ka bote, tapos initin/paapuyan mo tapos i sculp mo yung bote, kunin mo lang yung neck ng bottle.
maganda kung gagawa ka ng dummy finger or just a wooden stick para palakihan or para hindi lumiit ang size ng butas ng bottle neck
