## Questions & Answers

**Q: w3hat are the demensions of this product?**
A: Package for the moonshine 246 says 19mm x 6.5mm x 70mm. I read this as inner diameter x thickness x length. 19mm is 3/4", NOT 13/16"

**Q: I went to the Dunlop slide info chart on their website, and the 246 is listed as medium, not large. The 243 is small. Why is this 246 listed as large?**
A: In the ceramic Moonshine series the 243 is a ring size 8 and the 246 is a ring size 9. Both listed under medium from Jim Dunlop's website. Sweetwater has a print out for a ring  sizer. Your finger size is important and then the sound you like want.

**Q: What ring size is this slide?**
A: From the Dunlop site it gives the following dimensions -- 17 x 5 x 70mm | .69 x .20 x 2.76" | 6.5 - 7 Ring so, when it refers to "medium" on the title that is a reference to the wall thickness, not the ring size.  For example, the "large" #246 is 19 x 6.5 x 70mm | .75 x .26 x 2.76" | 7.5 - 9 Ring

**Q: I have no ring size but wear l/xl gloves....would a large be appropriate for my pinky?**
A: I also wear a L/XL glove. The inner diameter of the 246 is approximately 2.5 - 2.75 inches. My left pinky is about 2.75 inches at the base and this slide fits well. The 243 will go to the first knuckle.

M'enfin bon sang j'ai pas des doigts boudinés, quand même. Eh ben en "large" je passe à peine l'auriculaire. Quand à l'annulaire que j'utilise majoritairement pour slider, oublie, j'ai essayé et presque impossible à retirer, c'était à "un doigt" d'appeler les pompiers. Z'ont pas des gros doigts, les américains ... Ou alors c'est fabriqué en Chine ? Ben non, "made in USA". Et le son ? M'ouais. C'est pas moche, mais mes "fait maison" en goulots de bouteilles de Bordeaux sonnent aussi bien.
