| MOONSHINE SLIDES |  |
The 2 3/4" length Moonshine Slides are for the player who wants access to all strings at once.
Open tuning works great—commonly used in all styles of music.
The 2" length Moonshine Slides are for the player who likes to be able to finger chord around the slide playing.
Single notes are easier to control—standard tuning is an adventure.
The Moonshine Slide is warmer, yet more resonant than glass. Made from a white clay body and glazed with cobalt,
sound travels through the glazed exterior into the clay body. The Moonshine Slide clay body is left open and creates
micro-resonators round in shape. The clay absorbs high-end distortion while the tone takes on the shape of the resonators.
A round, fluid tone reminiscent of a tube amp is the result. The Moonshine Slide has a bisque interior (unglazed)
that absorbs finger moisture. This eliminates the slipping common to slide playing and provides better control.

| MUDSLIDE SLIDES | |
These Mudslides are 2 3/4" long, so covering the fretboard is easy—smooth and easy, the way slide playing should be.
These Mudslides are a cool 2" short for playing that doesn't cover the fret board. Finger notation is easy to play around
your slide.
The Mudslide falls between glass and metal in tonal quality. Made of high fire black porcelain and finished with a
hard clear glaze, sound travels through the glazed surface of a Mudslide into a closed ceramic body. There is glass
between the clay particles making the micro-resonators smaller. This means that after the high-end distortion is
absorbed, glass becomes the resonator. The tone is brighter than a glass slide yet not as metallic as a metal slide;
very much like the bone slide of old. Like the Moonshine Slide, the Mudslide has a bisque interior, providing the same
moisture-absorbing properties for better control. Click here to find your size.
