A Slide Designed for Control and Projection
The Shubb GS1 is part of the Shubb Pearse slides, a decidedly new approach to the Dobro slide: instead of a fully metal tube, it combines a stainless steel contact area with a very dense wooden top section. The result: you gain comfort, stability, and control while maintaining smooth sliding and precise tone. The cutaway provides a real advantage for adjusting hand angle, securing intonation, and executing transitions with greater finesse.Technical specifications
