Gary,

Derived from a normal cigar box by John Lowe and Richard Johnston, it has one bass and three normal strings, the link shows Richard Johnston playing their iconic creation.

Yer, they certainly are cool machines, Jabes. I've just made (a sort of) one with the same stringing but there the similarity ends and I'll put up a pic when I'm happy with it. The better news is that I've just bought a real one from John Lowe direct! Good to meet ya Saturday, by the way.

Yo, Mr MacB. Didn't notice any Queens miself, but there again, I should a gone to Specsavers. B-)
