I see you are quite an accomplished instrument maker. One willing to investigate & build lots of different styles of instruments and playing styles. That's cool! I'm just starting down this road and have made several canjos. Exactly what is the difference between a diddley bow and a canjo? Is it the fact that a diddley bow is fret-less and you play it with a slider? Yours has what amounts to a can on one end. The other diddley bow I've seen was made with beer bottles on either end. So, I guess diddley bows can have either style of resonators. I guess I should look for more on CBN for diddley bows.
