Hey no pedalers, how ya doin?
I am looking for bottleneck slide info, probably what would be most helpful would be a good forum that specializes in bottleneck slide. I searched and found a few, but was just wondering if anybody knew if there was prefered site for this info?
Thanks for the help.

Woody Mann runs it now.
The IGS gives tons of info on resonators, blues, sliding, etc. Frequented by several of the top players, including the Broz!
The top pick for bottlenecks is this fine company over in England. They make 'em out of lead crystal.

Ian Mcwee is a great guy to work with, and is willing to make just about any kind of custom idea you might have. I have crystal bars and bottle necks, they give a sweet clear tone. |

Ron those look fantastic and reasonably priced.
How bad was the shipping cost and time in transit? |

I can't remember the shipping, couldn't have been more than a few bucks for the tone bar, and after Ian emailed that it was sent, it showed up on Kauai in 8 days.
Most people treasure them as their best bottleneck, really gives a clean singing tone to whatever you apply it to. |
