Free Ceramic Guitar Slides

I have been wanting to try a ceramic slide to see how it sounds verse the aluminum one I have been using. We have the equipment to make them so I decided to give it a try. This is a pic of the 1st batch, The bad news is only a few of the biggest ones fit my ring/small finger. The bulk of the batch turned out to be ring size 6.5 or about 0.670"ID. They range in length from 1-1/4" - 2-1/4". If anyone here would like to give these a try (and your finger is small enough to wear it) send me a message. You pay the postage (small flat rate box $5.75) and I will give you up to 3 slides for free. Get-em while they last. Please specify which slide you would like in your message. Dan

That's It! They are all gone. I hope these work for everyone. Please give me some feedback on how they work since I can't play slide at all yet.

Those are gorgeous, but likely too small for me. Dan, generous offer and shipping will take time effort and money. I hope you charge enough shipping to come out okay. Best wishes to all.
