1. drink all of the wine as fast as you can straight from the bottle.
2. break bottle over your head. 3. look for the neck of the bottle after coming to. 4. If you can't find bottle neck, repeat steps 1 thru 3. |

needed....glass cutter, lit candle, bucket of water, empty wine bottle, med grade emory cloth sandpaper...
first gauge how long you want the slide by putting your finger in the wine bottle. score the bottle where the end of your finger lined up. make the score mark straight all the way around the neck, this may take some practice. next hold and turn the bottle over the flame where you scored it. after about 30 sec, dip the neck of the bottle in the bucket of water you should hear it crack. tap the bottle at the score line on the edge of the bucket or other firm surface. if the neck doesn't separate, repeat the process. now take the bottleneck and sand it down with the emory to keep bleeding to a min. |

Muddy Waters told Guitar Player magazine you soak a piece of string in kerosene, wrap it around the neck of the
bottle, and set it on fire. Supposedly the neck will pop off after this.
From what I've heard from people doing it themselves, it works better if you stick the bottle in cold water before you try to pop off the neck. That said, the most important part is sanding off every bit of sharp edge. And you will have little jags. |
