Just in time for Summer NAMM in Nashville, V-Picks has released a new, and very different guitar slide called The V-Slide. Made of the same wonderfull material as V-Picks, this cast acrylic slide plays, sounds and wears totally different from any other guitar slide you have used before.
This slide is much lighter than glass or brass. Therefore, wear and tear on the edge of your guitar neck and frets is greatly reduced. Rather than the normal clanky sound, you get a much warmer tone, yet full and rich. Some have said this material seems to “Bite” into the strings better than glass or brass, creating a better vibrato and sustain. And, you won’t be breaking this slide by dropping it on a cement floor at midnight! This material is next to indestructable and yet is just as cool looking as a glass slide. It also has that same “V-Pick Grippage”, so they won’t slip around on your fingers. This slide makes a great addition for your gig bag.
The V-Slide comes in two sizes. Regular - 2 1/4″ x 1″, and Large - 2 1/4″ x 1 1/4″. We will also cut them to your desired length if requested at order. Due to the feather weight of these slides, you can now play them on your pinky, ring, or middle finger.
Nashville seems to be the slide capital of the world. These slides raised a lot of eyebrows at NAMM and a lot of guitar players took the V-Slide home with them!
