I've got a stainless Jetslide and pretty much gave up on getting it to sound good on my reso with .016-.056" strings; not enough mass in the
slide. I need to drag it back out and try it on the electrics (which I really wasn't playing at the time I got the JetSlide); the lighter strings and greater sustain of a solid body electric with plenty of gain on the amp should help it a lot. The thing sure is handy for switching between sliding and having all fingers free for fretting, that's for sure!
