Electric Diddley Bow

The Electric Diddley Bow is the Blues in it's most simple form. This is where it all started, one string being plucked, using a bottle to sound the notes and the unique style and sound of the blues is born. This electrified version uses a piezo pick-up mounted inside an antique tobacco tin, mounted on an old piece of driftwood. Very cool to look at, very fun to play.
