Aged Ariel Posen Signature Slide - Small Review

Helped me fall in love with playing slide

I own lots of slides in lots of different materials. This is my second Ariel Posen signature slide and my third Rock Slide. I now know that part of my frustrations with learning to play slide were having the wrong size. This slide fits perfectly and I like the weight. The aging effect looks great. The picture may look like the aging creates texture, but mine is as smooth as any… read more other slide.

The brass rock slide

It's nice. It delivers like it says. Very light, very responsive. I thought it might have that brittle, edgy metallic sound (nothing wrong with that; definitely has it's place), but it has more warm and sustain that you'd expect. Plus, it's very light and agile, makes m rudimentary slide skills a bit more adept. It does make a difference. Thanks to Zack for all his help. He helps… read more point me in the right direction.

Rock Slide Aged Ariel Posen

I must say I'm very happy with my purchase of this rock slide. I have one similar to this except it is open on each end. This particular slide is lighter weight and the rounded top make such a difference in being able to get notes on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd strings separately as well as clean and keep the base notes open. Thank you Sweetwater great service with a little gift for… read more the sweet tooth.

I was a little skeptical at first

I've tried just about every slide available and I can say this one is probably my favorite. At first it seemed a little too thin and didn't quite feel like a 100% solid fit around my pinky, but after getting used to it I'm really happy with it. The rounded top is a little thing that makes a big difference. It's hard to explain why exactly, but use one and you'll see what I'm talking… read more about. My one complaint is for either Sweetwater or whoever is in charge of the product presentation for this slide. In the photos, it looks like there is a rough edge that's protruding from the slide right where you would put it on the strings. I kept looking at the photos thinking, "That's not smooth, what the heck?" I eventually decided to just order one and find out. Fortunately it doesn't actually have that weld joint looking thing on it. Just the example in the photos does for whatever reason.
