for the sliding glass hack, you're supposed to score the glass first. It will give the glass a weak line to break. Also, no need for a lot of string, just enough to hold a little acetone to burn. Then when putting it in water the temperature difference will snap the glass on the line. It also works on bigger bottles if you want to make a glass or vase.

I've used glue calluses after a period of not playing for a while and it worked pretty well. The big mistake you made was using the wrong kind of glue. you need to use super glue or gorila glue since it creates a much stronger bond. It still doesn't feel like having calluses but it lets your fingers undergo just enough stress to start to harden up while making the process just a little more bearable. It does add a bit of ecess friction when doing slieds and such but the people who are using this trick likely aren't at a point in their playing where they are going to worry too much about that.

6:13 Don't use toilet paper for muting but cut of a strip of a sponge and put it underneath the strings.
- It's reusable
- you dont have to weave it so it's easier to use
- and it looks cleaner

9:53 I love listening to the sound of this; I love the acoustic guitar SO much! The rhythm just emulates a heartbeat effect on me. So smooth.

I remember watching an old video of Brian Setzer playing this funky blues slide and he grabbed a whole beer bottle, took a few big gulps then went crazy on the slide to the point the beer was spewing everywhere while he was playing... taking the old trick and upping the ante a bit for showmanship

I think alternative tunings are the ultimate "hack" that every guitarist should try out! It completely changes the voice of the guitar and I think encourages creativity, forcing one to think outside the box of standard chord shapes and scales. It always did feel a bit like cheating to have a tuning that sounds good strummed open...but then again, why shouldn't it? XD Of course it does sort of 'lock' you in to a particular kind of sound while in that tuning, but that's we we have numerous guitars (: Right? That's definitely why...yeah, that's it.

I used super/CA glue years ago when I was learning to play. I played so much for the first few months I had white blisters on my fingers. While it was already a little late, the superglue helped tremendously while the blisters formed into a callus on their own and allowed me to continue playing with only a partial amount of the pain. Elmers does not bond like super/ca does on the skin and is not near hard enough. The reason he put his fingers on caps is it causes the oils in your skin to mix into the super/ca glue - oils in your skin are what causes the chemical reaction from liquid to solid to happen so quickly in super/ca glue. So by making it "mix" (similar to mixing epoxy glues) it makes the reaction almost instant. I would opt for letting it dry on its own though, not sure I would want to be prying my finger from a cap and risk pulling off skin making things worse. Yeah most should tough it out, play, blister, let heal a few days, play more - you will get a callus building up and pain will fade away. However, if for whatever reason you cannot maintain your finger callus by playing regularly, super/ca works. I would have given at least a 7/10. For the Sitar trick, try a piece of paper that is not as wide, you have a wide piece that will overhang out too far that will buzz more. Either way not a perfect replacement, but with the right material (like a very pencil wide piece of plastic) you can make some really interesting sounds.
