Despite what the size and the dunlop site says, this will only fit on your pinky -- and I have small hands.

Il suono del brass risulta molto più bilanciato sulle alte frequenze rispetto allo steel, sia sull'acustica che sull'elettrica. Davvero ottimo.

Purchased as a gift. Have used Dunlop slides for many years - can always count on their quality, consistency, value, proper fit, comfort, and tone! Great selection and a wide variety of materials, lengths, thicknesses, and diameters from which to choose. A slide for every type of player and musical style!!

I'm perfectly happy with this slide. Made of solid brass with a nice shiny finish, though this of course gets scuffed up the moment you start using it. I would say I have average sized fingers, and this slide fits nicely on my ring finger, resting around the second joint. It sounds great in use, and that's coming from someone who is far from proficient in slide guitar.For the money, you probably won't find better.

It works for me. Fits all the way on the pinky and leaves 1 knuckle on the ring. I'm teaching myself to play both fingers. I have skinny fingers though. If you have those workin' man sausage fingers you may want to size up, and remember that if your knuckle is wider than your finger then don't use your actual ring size. That's the only consideration. It's well made out of brass and the price is right. I was worried about whether to get glass or brass or whatever else but eventually I will get the rest so this was a good start for me and I am satisfied.

Bought this because I needed to spend a few more dollars for free shipping but also wanted a guitar slide. I didn't really read to much into this one and it was the amazons choice. It works fine but is TINY. I have regular sized hands and its tight on my pinky. Beware this is for someone with VERY SMALL hands. I may have to return.

My favorite metal slide. I love that Dunlop provides the measurements right on the package. Makes it a lot easier to shop for their slides. It's amazing how many "custom" slide makers don't provide the length, inside and outside diameter. Thanks Dunlop.This 222 has a thinner wall than some of the brass slides I've had. It's also a bit longer which is good if you want to reach across all the strings.I buy their 202 glass slides as well, which are about the same size but glass and with a slightly thinner wall.PROScost effectiveclear and accurate measurements/specsthe perfect size for megood weight - not too light, not too heavythinner wall thicknesCONSFinish gets dulled/marked up with use, unlike a glass, ceramic, or chrome slide

My biggest issue with buying this online was not knowing if this slide will fit me or not. Some say yes, some say no.I am a guy that has fairly average sized hands I would say, not too big, not too small. Some of the reviews on Amazon said it fit, but WHO did it fit??I am a 31 year old male, that has played guitar for many years now so I know what I like to hear, and this slide helps deliver a great tone.As for the size of the diameter of the slide, it fit well up to the knuckle on my ring finger , which is where I like it to be, but if I wanted to play it on any other finger it just would not fit right.For the price I would give this slide a shot... Good value... If it fits!

I bought it to replace the chrome one I had previously lost, and I was impressed with the tone. The tone is much more mellow and mild than chromed steel, but not quite as much as glass. I'm can't have a glass slide because they all seem to break. This is great for acoustics and your best option for electric. Definitely great for that classic blues tone.
