The heaviest is my long Dawg, which weighs in at 5.6 ounces. 0.2 ounces more than my Schubb RR-1, surprisingly.

I'm really liking the heavier tone bar. Doesn't seem like much but the difference between 5.33oz and 5.8oz tone wise is substantial.

The Super Slide (formerly Charlie’s bar) runs 6 ounces. That’s the heaviest off-the-shelf tone bar I’ve personally owned, excluding bullet bars of course.

My collection: Tipton @4.67oz, Beard 20/10 @4.9oz., Lap Dawg @4.92oz., Shubb SP3 @4.98oz., Stevens@5.05oz and finally Charlie's Tone Bar @5.89oz. I sometimes go back and forth between Charlie's and the Beard, I like the tone that the heavier bar can provide but the Beard has been and remains my overall favorite.

Like many of us I have a small "bar museum." 

The heaviest bar I ever use on dobro is the Asher CS-2 @ 6.1 oz., slightly heavier than the Charlies. 

The one in the video is the CS-3, a more recent addition to Bill Asher's product line. The 2 is chrome plated steel, the 3 is chrome plated brass and tips the scales @ 6.75 oz. 

I don't use the Asher very often on dobro unless it happens to be sitting on the music stand and I grab it and start playing. Like Bill's video, I mainly use it for lap/non pedal steel. 

I have several other bars, but the one I seem to use the most these days is a Tipton RT-2, it was from one of the final batches Ron Tipton made a few years back prior to retiring. 

I'm sharing the video because I like the design. But for me it's a little too heavy to be my #1 for dobro. The Tipton weighs 5.2 oz.  To the uninitiated, 9/10 oz. wouldn't seem like a huge deal, but in playing lap style slide guitar it's a significant difference. It's a little like your fretting hand and fingers can notice the difference between a 1 11/16" nut and a 1 3/4" nut on a flattop acoustic guitar. It's only 1/16" but players can definitely feel it.  

Electric lap steel with all the sustain and the music it's often used in can be dramatically different than dobro - depending on the music genre, and bluegrass in particular - your bar hand is often a lot "busier" than what you would play on lap steel. A lot more movement up and down the neck and across the strings. 

I have a Charlie's bar as well, and though I like how he designed the channel on top which provides for a firm grip, it's pretty heavy as well - 6.0 oz.  

When I got my first dobro in '91 (import Regal), the only bar available was the Stevens. It's the only bar I've ever used, just like Mike Auldridge (from what I've read).

I’ve, for years, been a fan of Tim Scheerhorn’s critical eye, ear, and design. His bars weigh 5.2 oz (I think?) and since they are the standard for players such as Rob Ickes, I’m not going to try and rediscover what’s already been worked out out by players far beyond my playing skills. I like the Scheerhorns.

I ordered a Tipton RT-3 which I am anxious to try.
