Six String Diddley Bow Double Neck: 2 - 1 1/4" oak dowels, craft box (basswood), Elmar Flatpup MR pickups, poplar bridge w round combo screws for bridge saddles, 2 sets of angled aluminum for nut and string retainers, 2 sets of tombstone tuners, homemade aluminum tailpiece, tortoise laminated material for control panel and rosewood veneer on headstocks.
