AGP #377 - “1973 HJ Holden Number 3”
1 String Hubcap Diddley Bow
Scale : 711mm/28 inches - String : .040NW
Tunings : A - G - F
The Hubcap is from a set of 5 1973 Holden 1 Ton Painted Hubcaps I purchased many years ago, this is 3rd one I’ve used so far!, stripped the paint off and buffed the Bare Metal to a shine, and gave it a couple of coats of Clear Gloss Enamel to prevent rusting, the Neck is Grey Ironbark and the Fretboard is Queensland Walnut, both recycled Timbers of course, and coated with “Organoil Natural Wax & Polish”, a 6.9k Delta Type Pickup is hardwired to the Output Jack.

Thank you to ”Uncle John” for giving me the idea for this build, after seeing his recent post of the great “Hudson Terraplane” Diddley Hubcap Build, also a thank you to Dave Lynas, for giving me the idea for the way I mounted the Pickup, after seeing his latest build the “Lovely Minnesota Gal” Build.
