[caramelosupremo]

How did you build that? I love it! Would like to have one of those!

[deathslice60]

Love it rock on! \m/

[heathovc]

Peppy old man :D

[milnak]

it's videos like this that make the internet great. Where else would I be able to hear someone playing a "canjo"?

[ELSOL102]

That is cool. Did you make that? 

[heybulldog13]

that sir, was awesome

[curiousjapan]

That was real nice.

[moalor262]

Yes, English.

15 years in 3 Para.

I have made 4 strumsticks, with 3 strings. i have given them away to the kids.

I'm fine at making them, as i am a joiner by trade, but useless at playing them.

[Goatboy44spl]

Awesome!

What is at the end where the bridge would be?

I'd like to try and make one, you should do an instructional video.

Great playing

[moalor262]

From another oldman para, but British.

[oldmanparatrooper]

thanks for viewing my video and your nice comment

[1xtiger]

Yep pretty good great job

[oldmanparatrooper]

Thank you for the nice comment

[oldmanparatrooper]

The stick or canjo is a two string Dulcimer. With two .012 strings tuned to A. All you need to make one

is a stick, nail in your frets, put two Zither pins in the end for the tuning. Place a can for a resonator.

Tune both strings to the same pitch, get some numbered music for the Dulcimer tuning DAA. You

are in business. thanks for your comment......oldmanparatrooper
