LATCH LAKE

LATCH LAKE

Latch Lake began with a friend helping a friend. In the late 1980s, guitarist Leo Kottke found that he could no longer get the French wine bottles from which he'd been making his guitar slides. It was only a matter of time until his last glass slide broke. He turned to his long time friend (and former touring sound engineer) Jeff Roberts for help.

Jeff's family business had extensive metalworking capabilities, and Leo wanted to explore the possibility of developing a metal slide that had the right shape and sound, and wouldn't break on the way to the stage. Six months later, Jeff and Leo came up with a prototype that had the right shape. After two more years they found a brass alloy that, to Leo's ear actually had a better sound than glass. Thus, the patented AcoustaGlide guitar slide (along with Latch Lake Music Products) was born.
