3 String Delta Blues Lengend & American Icon

An American treasure, Mac Arnold plays his homemade 3 string guitars like they did in the past...if you want to play true primitive Delta Blues, it is impossible playing a 6 string neck on a cigar box, try it the way it was done in the 1880's....just add few strings and creative playing...that's where the sound and tone come from, it's simplicity....and if you haven't , build a three string guitar today!

Fascinating. I wonder whether these 3 string guitars don't go back to west african NGONI(especially Malian -see Bassekou Kouyate)...
