How To Make A Bottle Guitar (3 Parts and NO Tools)

In this video I show how to make a guitar using recycled materials and an incredibly simple design. We only need three parts, and 2-3 knots. Thanks to Bespoke Post for sponsoring this video! New subscribers can get 20% off their first box with code NIGHTHAWK here: https://bspk.me/nighthawk The parts used for this project are a 2 liter bottle, a 3 foot length of ½ inch diameter PVC pipe, and a piece of string. I use fairly strong gardening string for the bass version of this guitar, and kite string for the standard tuned guitars. Fishing line would be another great option. Another name for a single string guitar is a diddley bow, and many great tutorials are available for playing these instruments. This is a great place to start: https://youtu.be/KojZ7CmT4Ik If you build one of these send me a video response to be featured in a playlist on my channel homepage!
