Best amp breaking ideas.

I always use the ole nail file trick, though with all the $ I've been spending on gear and supps guess I can afford to spring $8 for an amp opener :)
 
Take a towel and wrap up the amp.

Hold the bottom of the amp and break the top off with your other hand. The entire amp should be under the towel, you should get a clean break right where the amp is scored.

I'll try that one. I usually just snap the top off, once I ended up crushing the thing, but the amp was still good. I love Jefta's amps, since they have a score on the neck, makes it easy to snap it off.

I broke mine fine, didnt score or nothing. If it doesnt break, twist it then try breaking again. It will have a weak spot. Keep turning that shit.
 
u can get a small copper pipe cutter and use it, i mean a real small one, that will fit around the amp.....but why spend more money when u can get a amp opener for 8-10 $
 
I can't beleive this topic keeps getting so much attention time after time.

Okay let's see, first you fill the tub with water....
 
What I do is this:

I went to the hardware shop and bought a regular file like the ones that anyone working with metal would use. I then score the amps at 12 O'Clock and 6 O'Clock (Looking at the amps, not the actual time I do it - LOL!!!!) I then put the Amp inside a towel and it easily snaps off.

Best move I ever made, an amp opener makes life much easier.

This is the best ever advice! You will lose more vials than you can imagine without this simple little tool.
 
i sometimes get my lady friend to hold the neck of the amp inbetween her teeth and then i hit her on the top of her head with my fist!! you'd be surprised how clean the amp breaks.





haha j/k i use an amp opener
 
I used an amp opener for the first time last night and the vial still broke, luckily I didn't lose any.
 
i use a metal file and score it good all the way around....then put a pen cap over and just snap that shit....most the time its a pretty clean break....never broke one yet....knock on wood
 
I'll try an amp opener, but I tell ya, those amps from ICN don't have shit for a bevel in the neck of em! I feel a little more relaxed when I give the neck of them a pretty good score from a file or grinding stone.
