A metal bottleneck designed for brightness and control
The Jim Dunlop 228 in chrome brass is one of the classic bottlenecks: it delivers a bright, well-defined sound with sustain that helps to sing on the strings. Its medium size suits both guitarists new to slide and those seeking a responsive bottleneck to enrich their playing, whether oriented towards traditional blues, rock, or heavier tones. Its chrome finish contributes to smooth gliding and a fluid feel, allowing for more natural vibratos and transitions.

Bottleneck quite short and thick and therefore rather heavy.
Therefore, not easy to handle quickly, at least for a first purchase. But it seems to be very durable and of high quality!Automatically translated
