Four string electric guitar made from two Saab hubcaps, two broomsticks and various bits & pieces found during the years. The volume knob is and old bakelite handle of an kettle lid. I had to improvise with hydrochloric acid to get the rust on some parts.

I have a facebook page regarding these things that I make, you can like the page if you want. Most of the text is in finnish, but I always try to put the vital information also in english!
Thank you all for your compliments! It was a real nice build to do, as my friend wanted this kind of guitar, that looked like itcame straight from the scrapyard. You can listen in youtube, I'll try to add the link here, if it doesn't work, just search with the words "saab hubcap guitar". The guy playing it is Lauri "Arno" Ankerman, who plays delta blues in finnish. Mainly playing and old 1936 National called Rosetta.
