Slide Holder - Whiskey Brown

But if it feels right and resonates the tones and sweet, soaring sustain that suits your sound, well, more than just an extension of your hand, that slide is now part of your voice.

And like your voice, you never want to lose it — you want it right there and always ready, especially when playing live.
