Silica Sound glass guitar slides are handmade with a thickened end to promote a unique grip on the tip of your finger, as well as added mass for better sustain. They are unlike any other glass guitar slide in the way they feel, sound and look.
Silica Sound brand guitar slides are the original hand-blown glass guitar slide made with a tapered fit.

Silica Sound's mission is to create an outstanding glass guitar slide, that will comfortably and snuggly fit anyone's fingers and complement the player's style. The well received tone and comfortability of the slides will make playing with Silica Sound slides a unique experience.
Another part of our mission is to reduce our impact on the environment. We re-use or recycle as much material as possible such as:
Our Wooden Display Stands that you may have noticed in the store is made from seconded or re-used wood (made in Oregon by wood-working master Mike Phelps);
We use the display stand in stores because it helps to eliminate waste packaging, and you get to find the PERFECT fitting slide for yourself;
Shipping and packaging materials are mostly re-used: bubble plastic, peanuts boxes and moving paper;
The company vehicle is powered by BIO-DIESEL.
We are constantly trying to reduce our waste, and recycle and re-use as much material around the shop and office as possible.
