Dunlop 223 Brass Slide Knuckle Medium

Description

The Dunlop 223 Brass Slide Knuckle Medium is a compact, extra-short brass bottleneck slide (model 223) crafted for slide guitar players seeking a warm, resonant, and full-bodied tone with authoritative mass and sustain, ideal for blues, rock, and roots styles on acoustic or electric guitars. Made from durable solid brass with medium wall thickness (approximately 1.5mm) and a medium knuckle diameter (inner diameter ~19mm / 0.75″, outer ~22mm), it fits comfortably on ring finger sizes around 9–9.5, while its short length of just 28mm (1.1″) allows precise control, quick articulation, and easy maneuvering for intricate licks, open tunings, or bottleneck techniques without excess weight or bulk. The brass construction delivers a rich, meaty sound with enhanced projection and natural warmth that cuts through mixes, while the “knuckle” design provides a secure, ergonomic fit over the finger joint for stability during dynamic playing. Lightweight yet hefty enough for commanding presence, this handmade slide (with slight measurement variations) offers excellent durability, classic Dunlop quality, and great value as a go-to choice for both professional slide masters and aspiring players looking to add authentic bottleneck vibe to their rig.
