Blues Beaten Redshaw - Diddley Bow - Ont' Sofa Sessions

[@winkles2314]

So... I hear you've been walking, loving, and other such continuous actions.

[@UliKuder]

Jedes man freue ich mich wenn KZbin mir dieses Video vorschlägt. Jedes Mal nimmt es mich mit, so klasse. Leider hört man von BBR schon lange nichts mehr.

[@delorissamuelson6988]

What!!!! Wow, Fantastic!!!

[@wadester1969]

an inspiration to anyone who wants to learn a Diddley!

[@densondirosa4497]

I’ve Loved building & sorta kinda playing Diddley bows for a few years now. You can do a helluva lot with one string. An instrument that any non player can learn to play. A great talent. Wish he could come play the Highland Jazz & blues Festival in Shreveport Louisiana. Would love to show him some stuff I learned about building & playing these roots Jazz & Blue originating instruments. God gave this hobby, vocation, dare I say MINISTRY to me, & I want him to be proud of how I used it to honor him & showcase what he does for people who love him.

[@whellockroad]

That boy brings on the bad. Lordy!

[@tygoodystradingpost743]

I don't have any words.... Just WoW..... Sweet .....

[@trackie1957]

Still one of the best diddley bow videos out there. That’s one nasty looking instrument - goes to show it doesn’t have to be fancy or complicated to get good music out of it!

[@ericjam6346]

Masterful!

[@peterhaynes8258]

BRILLIANT & ONLY ONE STRING.

[@scottconger1266]

Hell yes, love it man, diddly bow "the grand dad of all guitar's" 👍.

[@EpixArtwork]

At first when I saw his Diddley Bow, I thought it would be some dirty country song, but then he strum with that distortion, and made the most dirt rhythm ever. So dope :) This is why I'm subbed :D

[@trackie1957]

I’d love to try this, but I can’t find a left handed one.

[@kylotrap3920]

I lost my shit at this comment

[@gartjone1846]

🤣🤣

[@Richard-zk5js]

Excellent 😆

[@Maxwellsworld-in2cz]

You can make one

[@bobhunt1253]

You make it come alive sir, didn’t know that was possible with one string.

[@Umber54]

It don't get much better than this. FINE stuff.

[@YorvikRaven]

that's great I love my diddly bow my mate made me but mines not electric so I'm going to make another.its amazing.the sound from one string and the notes are unreal.

[@scot4191]

Great!!! I'm currently putting one together. You play the Hell out of that one string!!! Thanks for posting .

[@SonicVineyard]

Hey...it aint a fender, but it delivers awesomeness!

[@rainybeet]

I was totally grooving out to his playing when I suddenly noticed at 1:12 that he is a dead ringer for a young Steve Martin from many angles! The squinting thing he does (and most of his "intense" faces) is super similar to when Steve Martin is hamming it up, though ironically Steve is much more serious when actually playing banjo. The biggest streak of Steveness is from 6:31 to 6:55. He is super awesome and makes me want to grab my own bass didley bow from the closet!

[@stevehall5151]

Good see Rick Astley is still doing well. Sick diddly bow 👍

[@GreatNorthWeb]

i was super busy today and had to go straight to the boogie 0:40

[@jimmywalker1419]

Brother you fucking rock!! absolutely inspirational to my diddley builds and taking its capability to new heights!!

[@rodsreel]

Anyone what the pick up is ???? - great music cheers

[@itsallaroundyou7085]

That was sick. I found this cause I'm thinking about making one. After that I'm gonna give 3 strings a shot. What guage string you put on and what you tune it to? Whatever you want in guessing lol

[@weldonsavoie3613]

Yes indeed you be jamin

[@dioramajue]

Very cool mate - thats a propper extended version - is that one of my handmade pickups i see there in your diddley bow -sounding good mate :)

[@everythingteck336]

What type of pickup did you use?

[@williamsnyder1424]

What is it tuned to? ty

[@josepijose1892]

how the heck do you play the opening rhythm?

[@jeremymoorer7033]

What string is he using

[@templeofpan]

Wow. What kind of string you using on that?

[@trackie1957]

You can use anything. He’s using with an A or E steel to work with the magnetic pickup. But you can even use fishing line!

[@fmkfmk3835]

@@trackie1957 best note come from broom wire...

[@YorvikRaven]

is it a G string.

[@toddbarrett4776]

What ever happened to BB Redshaw? He's fallen off the radar...

[@braziliancivilian8244]

1 string? is this my chance of learning an instrument?

[@trackie1957]

Why not? All you need is a stick, a piece of wire and a few nails. Not a lot of risk to try it. If you have fun, you’ll make a few more!

[@sidneiribeiro7666]

E string 🤔

[@shawnrains4047]

I can barely play a song with 6 strings.

[@mangoheadquarters8134]

MangoHead Likes.

[@illbeoverhere4707]

[@illbeoverhere4707]

[@RackwitzG]

I think it's a little out of tune. :-)

[@trackie1957]

Yeah, and he screwed up the chords.

[@ericjames8816]
