Recently, I have been demonstrating these unique instruments from Jackson Steel. On many of those demos, I took an aggressive approach with distortion and such. Here is a similar approach overall but with clean tones. Check it out.

Cool Zane!
What is that tone bar you are playing the bass with?

I have a leaded crystal bar from Diamond Bottlenecks that's like the exact negative or opposite of that one - 4 inches, double ball ends but dark blue with white swirls rather than white with blue swirls. I'd bet that, or a Loni Spector "Slippery Slide."

Niels,

That is a glass bar that came from the UK. Or at least that is what David Jackson told me. I really don't know the source for certain. I do know that it is very light and made of glass. It's really a must on the Steel Bass because of string noise.

Thank ya'll for listening to my craziness there. I'm having too much fun these days with these slide creations.

Stay tuned,

Zane
