Demo of my diddley bow made with a Pool Cue (hence the name... Susie Cue). Acoustic, but it packs a fair punch.

Good strong sound from that. Sounds like a fun instrument to play and you do get a lot of music from it. Very impressive.

Thanks guys. The stomp box is amplified on the video, but the guitar doesn't have any electrics.

I feel slightly cheeky mentioning it on my video, but the guitar is for sale (or swap) if anyone's interested. Like most people on this site, I'm starting to run out of room.... Just send me a message if you're interested, and name your price (or your swap offer).
