Diddley! Started w. a jute string (no hemp string in the shop), thx Jonathan but didn't like the sound, went to a git string. Sweetness and fun. And quick build :) -Glenn

Glenn Kaiser Thx Uncle John, fun indeed :) -Glenn

Glenn Kaiser Wc T-Gripped! -Glenn

Glenn Kaiser T-Gripped, yes, 2 part. And no special bracing due to three factors- just using 1 string and not a super heavy gauge at that. Secondly I think this particular box is tough cardboard overlaid wood so fairly strong. Lastly, I didn't glue the lids…

Glenn Kaiser Wc! I've really a thing for diddleys, and they challenge me to write and perform better songs as there's sorta no safety net as with more strings. Fun. Thx again! -Glenn

Glenn Kaiser Thx Jonathan! Agreed. I've used all you mention here on a number of occassions with varied results and it surely is subjective. I'd just never tried any sort of cord or twine before. I've made and even sold weed wacker bass cbgs, some w. a pickup…

Glenn Kaiser Ha, thanks Doug, nice look, great sound. Had the neck lying around from a failed 3 stringer so just used one of the holes for the tuner. Had the box for a long time, finally came up w. the build. -Glenn
Got it, will do today. I've done a lot of super-varied builds over the years, if interested: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrngMytbk3pOehGzNeR8T3g A bent chair leg git too, love creating, just don't recall using hemp or jute for a diddley so...…

Bro Glenn,
I am building a CBG site-not commercial- and answered a question of how I got started with this and the answer is that I have been your fan for a long time and found you on a YouTube link to see what you are up to now.
i posted that YouTube link on my site TunesFromTrash.com and hope you approve of me using it.
My other site is JesusChristExalted.com and I would like to reference your GRRR sitee there, please.
Thank you,
Jack
Thank you! I'll keep looking.
Glenn: I was impressed by pics put up recently of a 5-gallon bucket bass, and (I think) your name was mentioned by the builder, thanking you for the idea. Do you have plans for such a bass that you could share?
Hi There Glenn, Thanks for the Comments and the feedback, i got the info and the picture from a site about The Dockery Plantation it was about african roots and the origen from the primitiv instruments the prison slaves used, have not got a URL i was under the inpression i logged it under favorits ,but i did not, hope it helps ! Greeeeettsss A.D.
