RMS- THE STORY SO FAR :

The whole idea for these slides started in 1998, as I was looking for a different tone than I was getting from all the other slides that I had. Like most slide players, I had all kinds of slides (glass, steel, copper, brass, ceramic, even an old ham bone). They all had their use, but what I really wanted, a tone tool that would offer more "colors", a wider Tonal Pallet from one slide...and in the back of my mind, for me it was a combination of glass (for the volume and tone) and ceramic (for the warm-vocal quality) and the mojo of Fire Cracker Aluminum. I was looking for what all slide players and artists look for which is a personalized tone tool to achieve the "Colors" in our heads and hearts that will help us to acquire our "own voice" unique to us!!! Since then we have expanded to other tonal combos as you will see!!!

Almost a thousand pronto-types later, in 2002 I got the sound that I was hearing in my head! The first slide (The Blues Boy) that I made was a hybrid, light weight slide that actually has more volume than glass, yet gives you that ceramic warmth. Later, I talked with customers and other players that wanted me to produce a beefier slide. That's when I produced my second slide (The Salidan) for a little more "presence" and a little more Bottom End.

In 2005 RMSC was the 1st to develop and design the Worlds FIRST Ceramic Tone Bar. Utilizing Solid Stoneware Clays, for their density and tonal properties, we found that when combined with our custom "In House" glazes, they surpassed the other more traditional “Steels” and allowed you to create a more “Vocal” tonal pallet with greater sustain in your playing. Since 2002 we have continued to offer the questing guitarist a REAL CHOICE when it came to their tools of expression and hope to never feel the need to stop being innovative...always striving to be better!!

Others have come along, after the fact, and claim many things...but the real proof is...in your hand and to your ears!! Nuff said!!! The company motto is ....

COME LET YOUR EARS TASTE THE ORGANIC DIFFERENCE!!!

Please, be my guest and slide in with both ears.-Doc
