I really appreciate the input. I will be getting one and checking out your music. Cheers.

@noahchasinguitar5831 2 года назад

I definitely think the regular slide sounded better but obviously the jetslide is more convenient

@AndrewKarnavas 4 года назад

Very cool! I never knew about The Jetslide!

@TheMrnova11 3 года назад

I bought the black special edition 4 or so years back, Scott Holiday uses them as well, thats how I found them and they are AWESOME!

@TheMightyOrq 3 года назад

Man those custom color ones are gorgeous! Glad you're digging yours, and thanks for checking out the video. Keep on sliding!! #jetslide4life

@SteelyDanimal 4 года назад

Orq, the Macallan is getting low. Great video. I was waiting for you to say, ‘but wait, there’s more’.

@TheMightyOrq 4 года назад

Ha! I wish I could say "But wait there's more" of that Macallan! Thanks for checking it out, man. 🙌 It's a way cool slide if you're in the market.

@bradleyshuppert3393 Год назад

It’s like having a whammy bar built into your finger….. when you need that something crazy in the middle of a solo…. It is right there…. I love it!!

@TheMightyOrq Год назад

What a great thought! Love that idea. 🙌

@bradleyshuppert3393 Год назад

I love your music brother!!! Wish I had see you using this…. I would have asked you what it was…. You hide that thing so well when you play!! Amazing talent you inspire me to play every day man

@13BeatKing 4 года назад

Yoooooo, that is ingenious!! LOL I've never seen a slide like that! Now, I gotta try one!! #RockOn

@TheMightyOrq 4 года назад

Man they're the best! Super functional and only like $25. Glad you dug this man. Hope you're doing well and staying safe and healthy.

I agree with Kid. Try it out, I bet you'll dig it.

@slammnsammy77 3 года назад

I have been wondering what you were sliding with .

@stepitupandgo67 5 месяцев назад

thanx cousin!!!

Hey, glad you dug it, cuz! 😄🙌🤘

@stepitupandgo67 5 месяцев назад

@@TheMightyOrq I did!! and super informative..a story you might find interesting....I got the jet slide because of you, many moons ago, but it got shelved for other things...but I found myself wanting that quick change of regular to slide..I dug around and finally found the damn thing..but had no inclination how to operate it..I actually just punched in to google "how to use the jet slide" and up pops the mighty orq!! Serendipity baby!! Lots of love

@humphreymcgito2849 3 года назад

You’re the man. I saw a guy using one and wham, a couple days later I look and find this video. Cha-Ching

@marcuslewitzki4610 2 года назад

Have you tried the Black Mountain Slide Ring? It also allows for fretting.

@TheMightyOrq 2 года назад

I haven't tried this one. I pretty much only use the Jetslide, and have been playing with one since the late 90's. For the variety of slide styles that I play I need something that can cover all the strings for barring/chording. It seems like the ring slides are great for single notes or maybe double stops, but I like the way a Jetslide can cover the whole fretboard. Thanks for the comment!

@slayinbass2396 13 дней назад

Never heard the regular slide hit a fret. That jet slide hit a lot of frets. Seems harder to control.

@orangeRV50 2 года назад

Hello! Thanks for your video. I wanted to ask you if you can tell me the difference between jetslide brass and stainless. Is it an aesthetic issue? Or is it that brass is indicated for a particular style of music and that stainless is indicated for another style of music? Thank you for your time!

@TheMightyOrq 2 года назад

Great question, and thank you for the comment! In my opinion a traditional over-the-finger brass slide tends to have a darker, more bass heavy tone while steel has more brightness. With the Jetslide I don't really know that it makes *quite* as much of a difference. I tend to prefer brass in general, but I think brass, steel, or the glass Jetslides all do a fine job and have a good sound. I think it really cones down to personal taste. Thanks again for your question, and happy sliding!

@harmonicamanrandy 3 года назад

I want one and I'm a harmonica player.

@TheMightyOrq 3 года назад

They're super cool!

@reverenddave1893 4 года назад

I have an old bell or tapered brass slide called kick ass brass, seriously that's what it's called. I'm thinking I've been using it for 15 or so years, other than sanding it every couple of years it's my go to especially for acoustic stuff. Also have a old Coracedrin bottle, I prefer for clean electric sounds super clean with my ol analog chorus and as most guitar players I have the prepetuil fear of changing anything But I believe I'ma give this a try with the hope of finding one tool that will do both job's!

@TheMightyOrq 4 года назад

I bet you'll dig it! I've found it to be a really useful tool over the years. Thanks for watching, and good luck wirh your Jetslide!

@greendragon2471 3 года назад

Why do you sand it every couple years?

@ApertureWarrior 3 года назад

Id assume if he uses it a lot the strings would scratch up a brass slide quite badly adding unwanted friction when sliding

@reverenddave1893 3 года назад

@@greendragon2471 well just from carrying it around, dropping it, changes in weather causing moisture, sweating on it, it gets dull an stickey as in not as fast on the neck, so I use 1000 grit sandpaper and wet sand it back to a smooth polished finish, it doesn't take much at all to get it back to new I should probably sand an polish it more often but I'm lazy lol!

@spongeworthiest1935 4 года назад

Scott Holiday agrees!

@TheMightyOrq 4 года назад

This slide is definitely sponge worthy.

@Jack-fs2im Год назад

wish they made a straight edge one to barre chords

@TheMightyOrq Год назад

Hey thanks for the comment and for checking out the video. So it actually works well to bar chords if you're in an open tuning, and your chord is over one fret. Happy sliding!

@WAKing-ii7se 4 года назад

What about size? Do I have to know my ring size? Women’s fingers are smaller than men’s. Is it gonna wobble all over the place when I’m chording from being too loose?

@TheMightyOrq 3 года назад

That's a good question. From my experience you want it a little bit loose so it doesn't impede your ability to chord or play single notes. Check their website for sizes. What I do is if the ring is too tight I'll loosen it by hand until it feels comfortable. I've also got a sequel ti this video that goes into that a bit more. I'll put a link below.

@TheMightyOrq 3 года назад

Here's that link. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GKqxwh-XKNY.html

Yeah it can be a little tricky if you're not used to it. It's one of those things ya gotta keep working with. Just like anything, I suppose. Thanks for watching and for the comment. Cheers!

@erikliljenwall8185 Месяц назад

“Here, let me show you” Proceeds to hold the fckin thing out of the frame.

@TheMightyOrq Месяц назад

That's odd, I thought it was pretty clear. Maybe check around the 3:55 mark for a clear demo. Also, I made a second video that may even more clearly demonstrate how to use the slide. The link is below, and if you skip ahead to about 7:10, it should give a pretty clear example of what it is and how to wear it. Hope this helps. I know learning slide can be frustrating sometimes, but keep it up, and you'll be shredding in no time. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GKqxwh-XKNY.htmlsi=RFvq93RUPJe83B1s

@sundaynightdrunk 3 года назад

They also make it in glass for that Allman Brothers tone. Just don't drop it.

@TheMightyOrq 3 года назад

Yeah the glass one sounds great too. But yeah, good ol' brass or steel tends to be a bit more durable.

@sundaynightdrunk 3 года назад

@Nix Jett Yeah, which was glass, thus my suggestion to use the glass Jetslide if you want similar tone.

@sundaynightdrunk 3 года назад

@Nix Jett Have you seen a Coricidin bottle? It's round. The glass on the Jetslide is rounded as well, just not hollow like the bottle. It gives a similar sound.

@sundaynightdrunk 3 года назад

@Nix Jett I'm an old fart myself, and we had Coricidin bottles in the cabinet all the time. none of them were square. When we cleaned out my grandma's apartment, she had two originals (one childproof cap, another not) and both were round. Maybe they made a flat one for a bit, but I've never seen it. The Derek Trucks "coricidin" slides are certainly round, as was the Duane Allman repro they sold for a while. Not sure what else to tell you. Maybe find an example of it online? I can't, and I just looked. Here's one example: www.groundguitar.com/duane-allman-guitars-and-gear/duane-allmans-coricidin-bottle-slide/

@armandom28 22 дня назад

So why didn’t you demonstrate it?

@TheMightyOrq 22 дня назад

Thanks for the comment, Armando. I compare both a jetslide and a conventional slide on acoustic and electric guitars around timecode 3:34. Additionally, there is a Part 2 if you want more info. Hope this helps, and happy slide playing.

@terryhannah1319 14 дней назад

A very old idea, it never took off then and it will never replace the original bottleneck or brass slide! Imho!

@TheMightyOrq 14 дней назад

That's certainly fair, although idk how old the idea is. I'd love to know of some older slides that incorporate this bar/ring idea if you know of any off hand. Inanyevent, it is certainly up to personal taste whether one likes and uses the Jetslide or no. Thanks for watching and commenting, and happy sliding to you.
