    Description

    This is a clear glass medicine vial, perfect for use as a slide on cigar box guitars, store-bought guitars, diddley bows and more! This is the same type of medicine vial slide used by the old blues masters back in the 20's and 30's, and you are sure to be pleased with the sounds you get out of your instrument with it.
    We include a square of self-adhesive faux moleskin with every slide, so you can size the slide's interior to better fit your finger as needed.
    See below for the size specs of this vial - some adjustment with included adhesive faux moleskin might be necessary to get it to fit snugly on your finger. We don't know of any cheaper alternative for trying out an authentic-style glass slide for your playing - sure you can try to cut or snap the neck off a wine bottle, but take our word for it - that takes some doing to get right, and there is some danger to it as well.
    Please be aware that this is standard glass, with about a 1/8" wall thickness. If you drop it, it will break... if you slam it into your guitar with excessive force, it will break. It is not safety glass. So use it with care and respect.
    Size Specs:
    Outside Diameter: 1"
    Inside Diameter: about 13/16" at the neck, about 7/8" inside
    Length: 3"
    Wall Thickness: ~1/8"
