Review: Buttery Slide - So smooth like butter. Didn’t feel me heavy rather very comfortable to slide due to its weight. You will feel the difference immediately, it’s smooth even on rough strings.
Review: Great bar especially for the price. - Nice heavy bar, not at all hard to hold, smooth, even sound, all in all a great bar especially for the price. I use this on my 10 string Sho Bud pedal steel, and I am a level one beginner so if its manageable for me, should be managable for anyone.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The dimensions can't be correct. 5.5 x 0.2 x 4.8 inches? in the first place, being a cylinder it should have only 2 dimensions like 4" long by 1" dia**
A: Amazon -- sadly -- has MULTIPLE sizes that sellers can/should enter and it can be confusing at times. The dimension given indicates that some seller has not read their instructions. That is the (incorrect) size of the PACKAGE and not the bar itself. It comes in a sealed package so I had to go to the Ernie Ball website to verify the size. They say: "Size: 3-1/4" x 7/8" (8.26 x 2.22 cm) Red dot - Heavy (7.8oz) "which is actually correct in the bullet points which you might not be able to see if you are shopping using a "smart" device which is sometimes an oxymoron like "jumbo shrimp" when used for browsing the net. Not all things are visible using them!
