Hi Everyone!

Anyone who’s tried a Rath R4 do you usually prefer the standard narrow or a wide handslide?

Just looking for anyone else’s experience! It’s hard to find Rath parts this side of the Rockies.

I just recently tried a wide slide that a friend received. Much prefer the narrower myself for my R4F.

Can verify the narrow hand slide was a better fit

Glad you’re digging it!

I’m finding the wide slide to be very comfortable for me but a little bit of that sparkle is gone. I might look into trading later but it’s doing the trick right now!

I’ve always been a wide slide person but Rath’s narrow slides are better than their wide ones.

I wonder why that is since I've historically been a wide slide person myself.
