This isn't exactly a homemade instrument but I think it's in the spirit of CBN.

I got a crazy idea and decided to try it out. Take 5 cheap plastic kazoos and chain them together into a bigger kazoo... behold... the super kazoo. I'm sure I'm not the first person to think of this but it was a fun experiment nonetheless.

Thanks Doug, BrianQ, and AD. I need to do some more kazoo videos because I always have so much fun with them. Ironically, one of my most popular videos on YouTube is a kazoo vid. LOL. Nobody cares about my singing but everyone loves a kazoo. Ha ha.

 Ya never know if bigger is better, if ya don’t try? Speaking of, have you tried a Kazoobie kazoo? They have kool stuff printed on them, possibly one of the last U.S. made plastic kazoo’s? Thanx for sharing, I love me some kazoo :)

Super Kazooing the Beatles! Wow!!! Sky of blue and sea of green! Envious Kale? I’m not so sure. But it’s all good!

Thanks for the confidence Uncle John. I saw a lot of kazoo players at the Jug Band Jubilee in Louisville. They actually consider it a formative instrument in the Jug Bang genre. Who knew?

I think more is louder.   Kazoos are fun.   You are in my top ten all time kazoo players.   The Memphis Jug band actually recorded some songs with kazoos.
