| All that changed for me was getting the idea to try out the eBow at the harmonic points of strings.  Perhaps some more exploring of it will yield some interesting results. Borrowing my friend's eBow is a free way to try it out.The $80 tag on it still makes the eBow too overpriced, though, in my opinion. It can be sorta cool on a song here or there, but there are much better ways to spend $80 that would get more use during a gig. If I could find one for under $50, I might be tempted to grab one.  The eBow can't really be compared to a slide, as they do two very different things.

| dulc ,yes you are right about the slide does something different ........but the ebow is way out there far as the sound it makes that is not the same as a slide ........me i;m true blue axe player ,never use any stomp box,s .play clean ,and for alot of reasons ..me i love the sound of a good axe ....can make them do alot with just the fingers .....and if the axe is tuned right ,,,,the tones ,the feed back from good tube amp is all i need .....the hell with all the gizmos .......but that is just me ......old school......and like i said good axe ,,,,good tube amp .........is all i need ........but some of this new stuff is uncanny ,,,,and yes the price is out there ,but hey cheap is what ya get cheap ....... my 2 cents
