Dunlop Glass Moonshine Slide: Legal, Thanks To The 21st Amendment

May 13, 2008
Dunlop Glass Moonshine Slide

Everyone knows that Pyrex Glass slides offer a clarity and sustain unmatched by any other material. Likewise, you'd have to be a derned fool not to know that ceramic slides are far more comfortable and, some say, offer more control than glass slides.

Well those S.O.B.s over at Jim Dunlop have come up with one genius idea, if I do say so myself: the Glass Moonshine Slide. Sure it sounds like a cocktail you'd only drink on a dare, but, unlike its namesake beverage, the Moonshine Slide actually promises to give you more clarity AND control.

It's a simple design: a standard Pyrex Glass slide is coated with the same non-slip interior as Dunlop's ceramic slides. That's it! Stop thinking about it and go get one! They're only about $20, so you'll still have plenty a scratch left over fer a litre or two of the strong stuff.

To summarize, I have no idea why they called this thing "Moonshine," but that sure won't stop me from drinking it.*

*Gearwire in no way condones or endorses the consumption of the dangerous and potentially fatal alcoholic beverage colloquially known as "moonshine." Remember: if it's red, it's lead, you're dead.

"Moonshine" Because It's

By: Slide Lover

"Moonshine" Because

It's called a "Moonshine" Glass slide because it was developed by Terrie Lambert, the inventor of the original Porcelain Ceramic Slide, also known as the "Moonshine Slide" and "Mudslide".

Dunlop reps her stuff.
