It is rewarding to build your own& play them.

[@kevinmkraft]

Exactly! (Sorry I'm so late replying. I just saw this.) Indeed, there's nothing quite like making music on an instrument you made with your own hands.

[@Liesl_Cigarboxguitar]

You're Wife is right! And that's an awesome tune. I Just image someone escaping, dodging the search lights and ducking for cover. Awsome Diddley Bow my friend... I enjoyed it 🙂

[@kevinmkraft]

Much appreciated! Thank you!

Hi Kevin! As soon as I heard you start to talk about it, I knew it was not "The Pina Colada Song." Hearing it, I knew right away too, much more bluesy. You are a very talented player and interviewer! :-)

[@Peter-mz4rj]

It actually makes me think of, like, the epic final battle in a video game... awesome work on this! Sounds beautiful!

[@kevinmkraft]

Thanks, Peter!

[@johnpayne7873]

Very slick. It has a Mission Impossible vibe to it. Aside: best three string I heard used an enameled steel medical bedpan as the body

[@genomitchalinni8106]

When missing strings you better know how to make a riff of what is left. Reminds me of my childhood.

[@kevinmkraft]

Thanks, Geno. Hope you enjoyed it.

CIGARBOX REVOLUTION

[@boogieboxmusic4331]

Unless my ears deceive me , that was pretty roomy.. maybe a lower string on a diddly bo would sound better.. keep practicing kevin..

[@kevinmkraft]

I'm not sure what you mean by "roomy" but thanks
