  • I've heard Will Shade called,"A genius who played a string tied to a washtub." For real!

  • @andy131481 Well, perhaps he did, but Nowadays we play with a cigarbox and a one string stick ! Its called Diddley-Bow and its handcraft by me, but played by Mr BottleneckJohn. Please Try him here on Youtube !

    Thanks for the comment and listening !

    PEACE !
