    I recommend an amp opener. It scores and then holds the top of the amp while you break it. The last amp I broke without one tore up my thumb.

    some crush on me too, i just put kitchen towel between my finger and thumb and the vial, once you get the knack they'll come off much cleaner

    I was new to snapping amps 5 weeks ago and it was a little daunting at first, first 2 i done wernt very smooth so I done a little reasearch and now just wrap the bottom in tissue, place a bic pen cap on the top, have the black dot toawards me and snap away from me , POP every time and its clean, not daunting any more.

    But i dont think you could beat an opener.

    I always score around the neck with a file and then hold the amp in a shirt or something and pop the top off. Its usually pretty simple for me. We are talking about glass amps correct?

    Take the needle and plunger out of a syringe and hold the
    bottom of the amp, put the body of the syringe over the top
    and snap it. fits perfect, works perfect.
