Hi Billy,
My understanding is that Ben’s website is down at the moment as he’s making a new one. He is selling on eBay under the seller name ‘bens*bitsandbobs*’ from which you can order from him. His new website is a work in progress but there is some information on there already. The site is bensbarsandslides.weebly.com

Thanks for the info Bradsteel.
Could not connect to the web page, and trying to find a seller on ebay was not successful.
I tried the ebay page with guitar slides and there are a great many advertised but none from Ben.

I've got one of Ben's bars Billy. It is really top quality and polished to a mirror finish. I think that the UK is leading the way for choice of top quality bars.

Hi Ken, I already have one of Bens bars which has a flat milled on it.It is a decent sitar sound and the finish is superb I do not use stainless wound strings so there never has been an issue with dragging. I have ordered a four inch bar to try the extra length which will possibly sit snug in the fleshy bit beween the base of My thumb and first finger. I already told Ben that His price is far too low for such quality.
That will bring My collection to six bars.
Stay safe Guys
