Ezzee~slide tone bars..

[Basil Henriques]

My current bar is one that I made myself, it is 24mm dia x 80 mm long stainless steel, with a 22mm dia copper core, which I've calculated weighs approx 11 ounces

Yup that's about par for the course; if it was solid copper it would weigh 11.464ounces BUT with an Ezzee~slide you don't need anything near that weight, ask Ken Byng he has one that size but not that weight. Anyway there's a 28 day cooling off period for ANY online purchase, and I'll stand by that (even with my bespoke bars) AND a lifetime guarantee !!

Here's mine. A 1" bar with copper core and it come complete with amazing tone.

As a possibly beneficial side effect to this unique construction is the speculation that the copper in your left hand, and combined with the right hand over quite strong magnets is the best of two possible worlds and would be in line with the belief that these items can reduce arthritic and similar pain and also prevent it worsening.
And the Core is not only 99.9% pure copper, there is a magic ingredient and I'd have to kill you if I told you ! Don't ask me !

[Zebedee]

That magic ingredient wouldn't be repurposed bovine waste, by any chance?

Just kidding Bas, I'm sure the bars are excellent, they're just too expensive for me (heck, even strings are too expensive for me, the set that I put on my Emmons in 2011 are still on !)

MY prices are changing on November 1st.. At the moment they are all wrong; upon checking I’ve discovered than my prices are almost 20% TOO LOW.
I calculated them BEFORE Brexit and based them upon the 2010 prices for Tribotone.
NOW, after Brexit because the dollar is so strong against Sterling my prices really favour the Dollar or USA Buyer..~
I’ve priced the 1” Standard 10 string = 3.3125” (84mm) 7.7 ounce (2218g) ($120) £87.75 When in fact £87.75 is ONLY $107.15. Consequently my price for this bar (And the others pro rata) will increase to £98.27..
This discrepancy is constant across all my price structure. So regretfully I will have to increase the price especially as the raw material comes from DuPont USA.

Thanks Baz, Just let me know when it's ready and the price, and I'll send you a cheque. Thanks, Donny.

[Basil Henriques]

Thanks for the support Donny..One thing to note, because of the back orders and the bar is custom built by myself with no farming out, the casting, machining and polishing is all done by myself. So, The dispatch delay will be 18-28 days. I hope that's acceptable..

[Donny Johnston]

No problem, when ever you have it will be fine. Thank you. Regards, Donny.
