The easiest bottle neck slide ever

Here is the easiest way to make an authentic bottle neck slide...contrary to other tutorials I've seen using a dremel tool or soaking twine in kerosene, or using some coal fired antique bottle snipper...this IS without a doubt, the easiest, simplest way to make your own homemade bottle neck slide.

Thanks to your video, there's now a glass slide made from a sause bottle in rural Borneo and a kid who's playing slide guitar like a badass. Thanks for sharing this knowledge!

There could be no easier way!
Thanks for the tutorial.
No one else seems to know about this method; super easy!

I watched a bunch of these, dude, yours is the best, simple, right to the point. Thanks!

This is the best video ever. Simple, no fire, no candles etc. Wooden holder makes easy to get a perfect turn and cut. Thanks, man.

Yep!!!! Going to be making a lot of guitar slides now. I have seen many similar instructional videos on making slides...but your video is by far the Best!! to the point and the HELL OF A SLIDE!!!!

Thanxs man, i cutted my finger off with this, but I swear that I made the greatest slide ever!

Thanks so much for the tip about spinning the bottle on your workbench. I tried holding it while cutting and the line was all wavy. Cant wait to try this.

8 years later, I tried this. Still works great. Make sure you score the line perfectly. If you don't the cut will be crooked. If it is not that bad, you can use a piece of glass with 60 grit sand paper to even it out. Also, use the appropriate face mask so you don't inhale the glass dust.

How have I not seen this sooner?! You, sir, are the man!

Followed your tutorial and, no doubt, it worked like a charm. Thank you, sincerely!

Geezuz mate, How come I have only just seen this Video. That was soo Thanks a lot from New Zealand

[youtubecommentor]

Thanks so much Jason! Excellent video and instructions. I'm a long time slide guitarist. Now I can make my own slide bottles in many colors! Thank you for your time! Be well!

Fantastic! Thanks very much for this tutorial. I used two types of sandpaper. First very robust for basic finish and then 1000 to make the edges polished. 100% working. Best wishes👍

Thanks for the video. I was trying to think of a jig that was simple; yours should work perfectly. I will give it a try this weekend.

[sidolufs]

Dude, this is great! And, thanks for sharing. May your days be happy.

[PaulTheSkeptic]

Looks even safer and easier than the other video on how to do this. It's not how they did it in the old days but who cares right? Can't wait to try, thanks.

Awesome, gonna make one tomorrow. Great band by the way! I just recently bought a cigar box uke, I had never seen anything like it before so I had to have it. Love the cigar box band, plus the music is just awesome!

Hay dude sick video i'm defiantly going to give this a try. :)


For people wanting to know an alternative too using a glass

If you get a piece of string and soak it in a flammable liquid, tie that around the bottle on the area you want it to snap, light the string on fire leave it to heat the bottle for a few seconds then put the bottle in cold water it should pop off just the same. We use to make our weed bongs this way haha amazing how stoner craftsmanship can be used in lots of different areas

Thank you so much. I've always wanted to make my own glass slides. Now I can. Wooohooo!
