Bass – Slide Gear
Slide bass is rare but powerful — combining fretless expressiveness with bluesy textures and ambient glide. Whether you're using a bottleneck slide or playing on a fretless bass with portamento technique, this gear is selected for its sustain, clarity, and smooth tonal transitions.
