Musician and handyman Mike Orr shows how to turn ordinary objects like cigar boxes, soup cans and cookie tins into instruments as much fun to make as they are to play. You'll learn to build eight ingenious instruments, ranging from a one-string washtub bass to a three-string cigar box slide guitar. In addition to covering fretted and steel guitars, Orr will show you how to electrify your instruments and assemble an amp using inexpensive parts from the local electronics store.
