I have had the unit about a month now and am very partial to it. I have the Shubb GS-1 with the wood ergonomic shaped handle and it is great! This little Lap Dawg Chromed Brass slide is amazing. Compared it to a Sheerhorn Tipton slide also Chromed Brass and although they appear to be the same, the Lap Dawg is more balanced and fits my hand better for fast slide especially on cascading down-scale runs and quick slides. Buy it for the price it is the best out there and I have tried a lot of them.

I have bigger hands so this is a little small for me, but overall the weight is right, nice smooth finish, needed to be knurled on to though for better control, it is a little slippery...

Comments about Dunlop Lap Dawg Chromed Brass Tonebar:
I have used longer bars and it takes time getting use to keeping this one centered on the strings, going from a rounded tip to this one I sometimes "catch" strings on the end. This will go away with practice and retraining yourself.

Comments about Dunlop Lap Dawg Chromed Brass Tonebar:
I'm just getting into the resonator scene and this was affordable so I bought it to use with my first resonator. It's made great and sounds great but it's too small for my hands. I will be looking for something a little longer.
I would recommend it, but only if your hands are on the small side.

Comments about Dunlop Lap Dawg Chromed Brass Tonebar:
See above.
I play a 6 string lap steel guitar and have tried a couple sizes of bullet slides, neither of which I felt comfortable with. The lap dawg is easier for me to hold on to and control. Also, if your looking for that Hank WIlliams/ Patsy Cline steel guitar sound, I highly recommend Don Helm's lap steel guitar book "You're cheating heart."
Excellent
A bit over priced I think.
Comments about Dunlop Lap Dawg Chromed Brass Tonebar:
I am playing a Weissenborn slide guitar with it and also a Recording King metal Tri-cone resonator guitar. It sounds great with both of them; I really like it.
This is a bit smaller (2.85") than the Stevens that I have and it fits my hand nicely. The weight is about the same as a Stevens. Polished very nicely.
Quality seems excellent, nicely polished and no scratches or blemishes to slow it down.
Excellent product for the price.
Comments about Dunlop Lap Dawg Chromed Brass Tonebar:
shaped right, good quality. Dunlop products have always been top-notch; this one is no exception.
not much to its 'features' - it's a tonebar , and it is easy to grab and use.
good quality - smooth, grat shape.
I've seen them cheaper, I've seem them more expensive. But I have bought other items from Musicians Friend with no issues, so used them again.
Comments about Dunlop Lap Dawg Chromed Brass Tonebar:
... unless your hands are *really* small (or your thumb is *really* long), that is. I got this slide and am absolutely convinced that I prefer it both to my Stevens as well as my Shubb GS. The chrome is done better than either, and the wide slope of the curved face plays beautifully. The dimples on each end, however, are prone to chip flakes of chrome ... wish Dunlop could plug them up somehow before plating the slide.My main complaint, however, is that the slide is awfully short. It's only about 1/8" shorter than a Stevens, but the ergonomic handle makes it hard to grab. It's almost a full 1/2" shorter than a Shubb GS with the grip being similarly down-sized. I myself have pretty small hands (2 3/4" index finger and 2" thumb), but the Lap Dawg's is still too short. My index finger protrude far too much past the end of the steel, with my thumb struggling to stay attached to the bar.If in doubt, get yourself the Dunlop Long Dawg (Musician's Friend ID 421677) instead. You won't regret it.
