I posted a video response, hoping it gets approved! Its an Original song called "Life Aint what it Seems"

It features my Homemade Diddly Bow! I really need to post a video on it!

But it works and sounds great! Now all im missing is a banjo!

You don't need to buy a guitar, but you SURE AS HELL need that big muff pedal.

[crazyice326]

how did he amp it?

[Alex Paulsen]

You bought these things? Fuck man, you're going far too crazy with it! The point is, anybody can have a guitar, referring to price. You use what you've got, much like in a DIY punk fashion.
