3-string boat oar guitar
guitarz.blogspot.com:
Do you really need me to write an in-depth blog post about this
boat oar guitar? It's a boat oar, strung up with three strings and with a pickup mounted on it, and would be used for sldie playing in cigar box star style.
Currently listed on eBay with a starting price of $100 for those who don't want to be bothered with building something similar themselves.
