Rock Slide Aged Brass Balltip Slides

Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne

The Rock Slide Aged Brass Balltip Slide is the perfect tool for players who demand versatility and gritty tone from their slide work. Its pronounced ball nose design makes it an ideal choice for resonator, Dobro, and lap steel players, while the ergonomic features Rock Slide is known for—like the contoured finger rest, knuckle cutaway, and tapered interior—ensure a secure, natural feel and enhanced control across every string.

Crafted from aged brass, this slide delivers a raw, aggressive tone with added texture from its worn finish. The aged brass surface introduces a subtle drag, making it especially expressive for slower, more vocal slide lines. Whether you’re playing delta blues on a resonator or slick steel runs on a Dobro, the Balltip design provides the right balance of mass, comfort, and playability. This is the slide that started it all, built for tone and made to last.
