The Jim Dunlop Harris Brass Slide combines the weight and sustain of solid brass with a medium-wall design that's comfortable to control.
Its flared shape helps the slide sit comfortably on your finger, while the substantial brass construction delivers the warm, resonant tone and long sustain players look for from a brass slide.
If you want that big, warm brass slide sound without going to an extra-heavy slide, this is a great place to start.
The Harris has enough weight behind it to give you plenty of sustain and a strong, resonant tone, but the medium wall keeps it manageable. We also really like the flared shape — it's a small detail, but it helps the slide feel more secure and controlled on your finger.
For blues, rock and roots players, or anyone ready to move up from a lightweight slide and wants something with a bit more authority, the Harris is a really nice choice.
Dunlop recommends choosing a slide slightly larger than your ring size, and with slides, comfort really does come down to the individual player.
