How to choose
Choose slide material and size based on the tone you want and how it fits your finger.
Beginner
A player learning slide guitar should start with a lighter option like the Dunlop 220 Chromed Steel slide, since steel is common, affordable and forgiving to control. Practice muting the strings behind the slide with your other fingers to reduce unwanted noise.
Intermediate
Players developing slide technique often try glass options such as the Dunlop 204 Pyrex for a warmer, smoother tone compared to steel. Experiment with slide placement directly over the fret wire, since accuracy matters more in slide playing than fretted technique.
Expert
For a fuller, sustained tone, experienced players may reach for a heavier option like the Dunlop 213 Pyrex Glass Slide or Dunlop 246 Moonshine Ceramic. Match slide weight and length to the guitar's action and string gauge, since heavier slides suit higher action setups better.

About Guitar Slides
Slide guitar uses a smooth tube worn on the finger to glide across the strings, producing the sliding pitch sound heard in blues, country and rock playing. Different slide materials and weights change the tone and sustain of the technique.
This page includes Dunlop's glass, brass, steel and ceramic slides in various sizes, plus a Planetwaves brass slide, giving players options across weight and finger size.
