What is a Diddley Bow?


A one string instrument with a can for a sound box.

You can use a pick or a stick, like a chopstick on the string,
the notes are found by using a slide as on a steel guitar.

There are no frets on a diddley bow, but we have marked
the note positions with black and white stripes
similar to a piano keyboard.
