Ooh, yeah. Go on, stick a transducer on it - you know you want to!

yes yes!

actually gonna make one with a slightly smaller coffee can (chock full o nuts size....great coffee for the working man!)

and yes, i'm gathering info on how to do just that.... :)

a little overdrive maybe...eh? eh? :)

Too cool!

thanks Deach :)

Sweet. I have not seen one with the strings going into the can like that. Makes using a smaller can work out nicely.

[doogey9]

thanks Yoppy....

tried a bigger costco coffee can, but it's a bit uncomfortable to play...gonna try a 'chock full o nuts' can next....and maybe a piezo pickup :)
