Dunlop Brass Concave Guitar Slide (227)$8-$12

Dunlop Brass Concave Guitar Slide (227)

Dunlop Manufacturing
Musical Instruments

Dunlop's heavy-wall brass slide curves inward slightly to match the 12-inch radius of a guitar's fretboard, making clean full-string contact without forcing the wrist into an awkward angle. The mass of the brass provides rich sustain and the warm, buttery tone brass players prize. A polished interior keeps the slide gliding smoothly over strings with medium inner diameter sizing for comfortable play.

Dunlop Trigger Capo Acoustic Curved Black$16-$22

Dunlop Trigger Capo Acoustic Curved Black

Dunlop Manufacturing
Musical Instruments

Dunlop's spring-loaded Trigger capo for acoustic guitars with a curved 12-inch radius neck profile. A single squeeze opens it wide for fast, one-handed placement in any key, and the strong spring clamps evenly across all six strings without choking the neck. Medical-grade silicone padding on both the fret bar and neck contact protects the instrument's finish, while the lightweight aluminum body adds virtually no weight to the headstock.

Dunlop Tortex Standard Picks Sample Variety Mix Pack$8-$12

Dunlop Tortex Standard Picks Sample Variety Mix Pack

Dunlop Manufacturing
Musical Instruments

Twelve Tortex Standard picks — two each of six gauges (.50, .60, .73, .88, 1.00, and 1.14 mm) — so players can find the exact feel they want. Tortex material was developed in Dunlop's Benicia lab as an eco-friendly, consistent alternative to real tortoiseshell; it delivers a bright attack with a warm tone and enough surface texture to grip cleanly without slipping. An ideal sampler for players experimenting with new gauges or tone.

Dunlop Original Cry Baby Standard Wah (GCB95)$90-$115

Dunlop Original Cry Baby Standard Wah (GCB95)

Dunlop Manufacturing
Musical Instruments

The GCB95 is the wah pedal that defined rock guitar — the same circuit Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, and Slash reached for. Built in Benicia, California, it uses the original red Fasel inductor for a vocal, crying tone that sweeps from a warm low end to a singing high. A rocker-and-pot design in a rugged steel housing gives it the feel players have trusted since 1967.
