  • Thanks, Duck.  I've never taken a diddley to open mics.  Might practice up and take this one some time.  Planning on taking a concert uke this week.

  • Nice looking diddley Uncle John.

  • vrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrroooommmmmmm

  • Thanks Muddy and Richey.  Yup, I like the box too.  Would have made a good 3 or 4 string.  I had never done the mag pup thing with a diddley and want to do so. 

  • Sharp lookin' d-bow there John. I like the box!
