Thought I'd share my two-string diddly bow with you folks. I built it after seeing Seasick Steve on Jools Holland last year from found materials.

its made out of old steel strings, some bolts, a plank of wood, a mint tin and some nails. I had to cheat and buy the speaker and jack plug from maplins though.
