Artist usage
Add artist
Duane used them for slide playing like many other guitar players do.
He used Coricidin Medicine Bottles because it had a cleaner sound than metal slides but I don't think he uses them anymore because he has his own signature slide made by Jim Dunlop.
In the Premier Guitar article "Lynyrd Skynyrd’s Gary Rossington: Simple Man, Big Tone," it is mentioned that Gary Rossington uses Coricidin medicine bottles as guitar slides.
JD explains in this Rig Rundown that he uses old 60's Coridicin medicine bottles as slides, because a) Duane Allman used them b) the omit a certain frequency that modern Pyrex slides don't.
