Its playing the banjo or guitar with neck of a bottle on your finger, you normally use a medicine type bottle, you can grt them on ebay, it ives a bluesy slide effect

[clangabell]

Really great!!! Bravo!

[SmallBizMan]

Hey Clangbell, how'd you learn how to do that? What would you recommend to a newcomer to slide blues on the banjo? Awesome, by the way.

[Tsalmaveth]

That very much copies the sound of a resonator guitar.

[Nemomeansnoname]

that's awesome man, i've used slide on my guitar for years but i've never heard it on a banjo, i'll have to let my brother listen to this, he's a banjo player

[surfinbernard77]

This is really good! I'm so going on eBay to get me a slide!

This may come across as a stupid question so I apologise in advance if it is.

what is the bottle neck banjo? Is it a way of playing or is the neck of the banjo shaped differently??

[resobill]
