awesome, gonna build one for myself now. also, a cotton ball or a little piece of foam over the mic hole in your camera would prevent that noise from the wind.
Look up "It Might Get Loud" and watch the trailer. you can see a Diddley Bow very up close in the first couple seconds. Jack White is playing it. AMAZING.
with a one string mini dobro and a one string can bass. Mine don't have pickups though; that electric diddley bow through that tiny amp just sounds awesome. Nice setting too.
It's amazing the unique tones you can get from these handmade instruments. I loved your presentation. Sitting on top of a ... cultivator or somethin. Awesome.

Thanks for your comment and enthusiasm!

Get your self a 2x4 and stretch a piece of broom wire or a guitar/bass string across it and stick a guitar pickup in it and you're away!
Thanks for the interest,
