One cheap crappy old pickup, a 2x4, a Coke bottle and a used grungy E string = diddley bow, jitterbug, or simply called a one-string guitar

Jack White made one in the movie "It Might Get Loud" and this one is based on that one.

    Thanks! Definitely make one!

  • @gioffeh Do you mind telling me how did you set up the pick up?

  • @jrlajara

    It's mounted with a couple of nails where the original mounting/height adjusting screws were, on top of a scrap piece of wood to give it an acceptable distance to the string.
