I've done it again...🥱 I had planned to visit Diamond Bottlenecks HQ and James' Home of Tone the weekend just gone but plans got derailed so in my general excitement with Diamond Bottleneck slides I ordered a couple of slides from James to try out (postage is more cost effective than driving up there I tell myself!). Anyway I also found a nice tenor banjo at a very good price so something has to give and if you know me you'll know I have enough slides!!! These are "new"...one came on Saturday, the other 3 weeks ago. Looking for £20 plus postage each. Obviously I'd be happy to combine postage if you would like both 🙂 (SOLD)Teal Prism Ultimate 63/60mm (small comfort notch) in length 19mm ID 6.5mm wall at its thickest point, 5.5mm at its thinnest. There's weight don't worry! (SOLD)Cobalt Blue / Blackberry Prism 66mm in length 20mm ID 5.5mm wall thickness at one end, 4.5mm at the other. It has a slight external taper much like a regular bottleneck, which is a little unusual with the hand-blown Ultimates. The thicker end for the fingertip etc. Both slides are hand-blown lead crystal glass and sound wonderful. Any questions, feel free to get in touch. Both come with their wee faux velvet mojo bags. Cheers all Lew

I have two Diamond Bottleneck slides. One is the Original that I purchased from Catfish Keith and the other a domed black Pearl Ultimate. Both are great. I can’t say enough about the slides Ian produces at Diamond Bottlenecks. You shouldn’t have any trouble passing these along.

Keith tonight 🎸🕺🏻 I wonder if he'll have any slides that fit me...🤔🤞

He’s just a nice person to do business with and then he’s got this style of playing that is like no other. Enjoy the show and maybe he’ll have a slide or two with him. If I lived in that part of the world and Keith had no Diamond Bottlenecks, I would drive over to see Ian McWee and get one from the source. He seems like one of the most likeable guys around.

He was indeed great on stage and off it, he even signed my cast 😊 And I picked up a nice perfectly fitting 'Original' Diamond Bottlenecks glass slide off him. Kicking myself for not purchasing his latest CD. Next time!!! Back on topic a bit, both slides have now sold. Thanks Richard and Rob 😎👍
