Has anyone ever tried building a diddly bow but using a single coil pickup, and turning the picking 90 degrees so that the string goes over every pole in the pickup?  I'm thinking of trying it, and it could either sound insanely awesome, or more likely, be buzzy as hell and feed back too much.  Any thoughts?

  • Thanks pick, you make a good point!  :)  Definitely going to try it then!

  • yup , works fine . no real difference except a bit fuller  tone .

    does a 6 string buzz like crazy and feedback   when you strum all 6 strings ?  ;-)
