Goofin' with the gascan

[mafistofun]

This guy looks like he could be Woody Harrelson's dad. Not trolling, totally srs.

[Marylandfarmer]

Cool and nice sound. Gotta love the clawhammer!

[jimmywestfall989]

can you make a banjo outta some titties?

[strahinje]

yall gran'pa from da south? loolol

[rpeek]

@MrNolanface 'Smazin' ain't it.

[More350Power]

That looks like fun as heck! I always like the sound of the banjo and the rhythm , guess they use a lot of banjo in blue grass?  I could be wrong.

[XHereticHeroX]

That's really cool how you did that. The more I look into how to build a CBG the more cool creative people I see. DO you have any pointers on making a CBG? Do you know of any reading material on how to build guitars or stringed instruments?

[rpeek]

@XHereticHeroX Go to my channel page and on "playlists" hit "see all" and you'll see a series of vids on how to build one of these. Takes you from start to finish.  Good luck.

[Redlew96]

Got to love the "hih hii"

[DaZeDmerlin]

Yee-hi, haha, i love it, so cool!

[frankensteinmoneymac]

I love the intro line "Hey its just an experiement....I mean its not like real life-ya don't want ta get freaked out about it-it don't mean nothin'"..........I seem to remember using that line, or something similiar when trying to talk a girl into doing something a bit kinky! LOL!

[rpeek]

@frankensteinmoneymac  Ha hahahahaha.. did it work? hahaha..

[bribriboytoy]

@rpeek I hope he answers soon I wanna know if I should use it myself....

Keep up the vids, you brighten up the day.

[rpeek]

@Paxtonmakesmusic Nope, I don't play guitar. Too many strings, and the neck's too fat.. hahahaha.

[Bayoucrossingguitars]

very cool!

[donNtomatv]

it's really awesome!

[ShawRoadProductions]

Run faster, I hear gascans

[Downwithblues]

ahh whoo

[MrJrondeau]

haha, i think i'm sticken with claw hammer. after that video i've seen the light

[rpeek]

Awsome. Glad to have lead you to salvation brother... hahaha

[TheFireball100]

You're funny! Great job though!

[rpeek]

Thank You... Yea, I like funny. It works for me.

[TheFireball100]

I'm a funny guy too. Some people think I'm crazy.

[rpeek]

Yea, that's possibly a good thing. I used to work in a mental health center and one day , while I was doing a group, all the clients gathered around and said, 'We like you..... You're one of us!"

Okay then...

[DROWE859]

Will you play us some Scrugs style on the gas can, I'd love to hear what it sounds like.

[rpeek]

I'm pretty awful with Scruggs style, but I'll see if I can find my old picks and give it a try..

[randyrb2307]

GREAT PERFORMANCE, do you know the name of this song. I have been trying to figure it out, but i never could.

[rpeek]

Dueling Banjos..... Thanks..

[gortie]

That's bad-ass!

I'm from the Ozarks, if that either detracts from my opinion or adds to...

[rpeek]

I'd say it adds.  Thanks.

[transdetendal]

wow great sound . awsome plaayd , did you make it or was it a present,and if you did can you post a "how to" . not that i can play but.... awsome.

[rpeek]

Yea, I've got one called "Making the Oilcan Banjo" already posted..

[rnewsome51]

Great!! I made a cigar box fiddle, there is a video of here, also.

[rpeek]

Thank you..

[henrirummo]

wow, sounds awesome for a gascan!! i'm building a cigar box guitar at the moment, but this video definately gave me alot of courage to try a cookie box next time.. for some reason i had doubts about metal body.. cheers!

[rpeek]

I'm going to build a cigar box too, one of these days. Got some boxes..

[cannissolis]

Have you had that rainy day yet?

[rpeek]

Kind of busy at the moment, but been thinking about it. I won't forget.

[OboeDuck]

EPIC WIN!!!!!!!! This is superb!

[godlessdustin]

any one ever seen deliverance?

[rpeek]

Yep. Read the book too.. The book's better.

[brokenremedies]

im still pretty amazed to hear it done on a homemade banjo

[OwigamiHey]

i really think you're a cool-ass guy

[rpeek]

Yep that's me..  Hahaha

[cannissolis]

sorry! I was having trouble posting, I didn't mean to post that twice, the first one didn't post at all, and then the next one didn't seem to, and when I tried a third time the last one came up too!

[cannissolis]

re. tab, that is

[rpeek]

Next rainy day I'll work on it.  Might not tab it, but I could do a video and show how it'd done. I play both parts on the banjo. If you can do enough of dueling banjos on a gas can so that someone can recognize the tune, that's usually good enough to impress folks. After all, you don't have to be all that good to be the best gas can player in the world..

[cannissolis]

Hell! You're a damn good five string player, gas can or no! And I've seen a conventional 5 stringer on your wall (o:

If you decided to do tab or an instructional vid, either would be great, I'll look forward to it :o)

[cannissolis]

I was going to ask the same thing?

[OMGWUNSIU]

absolutely wonderful... I've been playing acoustic guitar for about 8 months and i'm not so good at it. I love the way you play that darned old gas can!!

[switzforge]

Thats great.

I don't supose you have tab for dueling banjos clawhammer style?
