“For guitarists to push the boundaries of what’s possible”: Meet the SlideSaddle – a guitar slide that offers infinite sustain like an EBow

Aum Guitars has launched an IndieGoGo campaign for its nifty new invention, the SlideSaddle. Described as “an infinite sustain slide,” it works with all electric guitars and pickup-loaded acoustics, and is perhaps best described as the slide equivalent of an EBow.

It is the latest creation born from the mind of the firm's founder, Gareth Whittock, who brought forth the Vibraslide back in 2021. That design delivered Dark Side of the Moon-inspired slide sustain for lap and pedal steel guitars.
