Bydand “Classic” 2-String electic Diddly Bow Kit


****YOU WILL RECEIVE EVERYTHING YOU SEE IN THE PICTURES ABOVE****


Do you want a “classic” looking Diddley Bowmade from your own two hands without the hassle of gathering all the parts needed to make such an instrument? If you do, then go with the Bydand “Classic” Diddly Bow Kit. The Classic Diddly Bow Kit comes with everything you’ll need to construct your very own Diddley Bow. Making this kit a cheap and effective way to get rocking!


Piezo pickups are some of the best pickups to get that “true blues tone.” These piezo pickups are sunk (insulated) in bottle caps. To install the pickup, mount the silver side of the bottle cap to the inside of the box using some hot glue (for best results). They are normally installed directly underneath the bridge to pick up the most intense vibration… but there are no rules for where you need to put it!


These kits come without fret markers on the neck. If you wish to install frets or mark fret indicators, you can a free online fret calculator (check out bydandinstruments .com Cigar Box Guitar Kits) or manually mark off where each note is supposed to change.


****Each kit is uniquely assembled***


***All the parts that come in the kit are NEW, with the exception of the cigar box (used to hold cigars…)***
