Smooth and fits my hand
The Shub GS-1 is my third slide I bought for my new Duesenberg lap steel. I finally found the one that is easy to hold and hit single notes or full chords without moving in my hand. It makes it easier to deaden strings behind it for a rich full sound. For me it seems to work better than anything I've tried. Read full review

Lightweight and easy to handle
This slide bar works great for me. I'm over 60 years old and my left hand stays half numb most of the time. I have a problem holding on to an all steel slide bar because of the weight. This slide bar weighs less and the wood part seems to be flared out more to where I can keep hold of it better. I've had a dobro for two years and never learned anything on it because I couldn't hold on to the slide bar. Now with this slide bar I'm able to practice 2 to 3 hours each time I get it out. Thanks for a great product!Read full review

Is taller than the one I was using so my thumb doesn't hit the strings
Fits my hand and is a little bit lighter

Great features for beginners and people with dissabilties
I had a stroke last year and had trouble holding my Steven slide so I tried this slide. It is much easier for me to hold and control with forward and reverse slides. Makes playing much easier and enjoyable.Read full review

Great choice
I am a woman, have smaller hands than a man. I have MS and can't chord a guitar. Have gone to dobro. This steel is warm to the touch, and I don't lose my grip on it.

This is the best bar I have ever used.
This is a great bar. This is my second one. I have arthritis in my left hand and this bar makes it so much easier to play my dobro.

On the short side
Really well made! The craftsmanship is amazing! The only down side for me is that it is too short for 10 string pedal steel. Would work great on a Dobro, though. I think it's a good value at $28.

Excellent steel.
I like the shape of this steel. It fits my hand comfortably. The fact that it has what amounts to a wooden handle lightens the weight of the bar quite a bit.

Great for lap steel slide guitar.
Love this. Very comfy in the hand. I've already recorded parts for a new album. Highly recommended!
