Vintage aesthetics meet modern ergonomics. The Rock Slide® Small Amber Glass is a precision-engineered tool individually hand-moulded by master lampworkers. Featuring a rich, warm amber hue, this slide provides the crystal-clear tonal clarity of glass with the patented comfort features that revolutionized the industry.
Now available at Haggerty’s Music, this Small (S) model is specifically designed for players with a ring size of 6–8. It is the "sports car" of the slide world—ultra-lightweight and incredibly fast—making it the perfect choice for high-energy electric blues and acoustic accents.
Why the Moulded Glass Rock Slide is Superior
Standard glass slides are often simple, straight tubes that wobble or feel cumbersome. The Rock Slide GRS-SA is "carved" to fit the human hand.
- Tapered Interior (Zero Wobble): Traditional slides are only snug at the knuckle. This slide features a tapered interior that maintains a snug feel all the way down your finger, providing immediate stability and preventing the slide from falling off during a performance.
- Massive Sustain with Thicker Walls: Thanks to the internal taper, the walls are nearly twice as thick at the tip(up to 6.1mm) compared to typical glass slides. This extra mass acts like a "gain knob," giving you the sustain needed to light up your acoustic strings while staying light enough to "cook" on an electric.
- Patented Knuckle Cutaway: The unique notch at the base allows you to bend your finger naturally. You can maintain your mobility for fretting chords and complex licks without the slide pinching or restricting your movement.
- Integrated Finger Rest: A dedicated flat surface provides extra leverage and a stable spot for your neighboring finger, allowing for much more expressive and controlled vibrato.
- Hand-Moulded Quality: Every Amber Rock Slide is individually crafted for a perfectly smooth, frictionless playing surface and a beautiful, classic look.
