This hub cap guitar is dear to me.  The hubcap was given to me by a friend ~ and It is a good player.  :)

 

The LITTLE ADDED THINGS INCLUDE:  dice an old and deceased friend gave me.  

                                                          A 1949 penny because it's a Mercury hubcap and I use it

                                                          to play  Mercury Blues, about a 49 Merc.

                                                          An Indian Head nickel.  (Always liked em)

JP, that is your trademark.  Randy, that skull is a doubly functional acroutremant.   Rich, the lady bugs are just the kind of personal touch I am after.   Naz, those maggots are cool as can be.  Wish you would open up your page for us to see your stuff.

Is there a story behind this, or is it just some random thing?
