The Rock Slide
Some words from the inventor/founder, Mark Morse;
"While playing the club circuit in the late seventies, I was always less than satisfied with the guitar slides available at music stores. It always bugged me how slides would pinch the inside of my 2nd knuckle. While home on a break I decided to grind out the cutaway section of a chrome slide I had at the time. It immediately made a big difference in the comfort & stability. This got me thinking some years later that the concept could be taken much further.While the cutaway was convenient the interior was still “pipe like”. My research led me to a creative metal manufacturing company in Spokane, Washington that utilized computer driven Swiss screw machine technology. I decided to utilize CNC and CAD drawings to take my project to the next level. Once the design was finalized and patented, we loaded our design into the computers and The Rock Slide was born."
If you've followed the Home of Tone for a while, you'll know that I've always had a nice selection of quality guitar slides, but stocking high quality brass slides has been on my agenda for some time. I already stock the traditional, but uniquely tapered Dunlop 'harris' slides which are superb, but it feels great to also add The Rock Slide to my line-up! These slides feature some very unique design points, from the cool aged brass finish to the tapered internal diameter, finger rest & knuckle cutaway all aimed to help technique and comfort. Heavy weight brass material too!
