My Dad picked up a small oval washtub at a yard sale and gave it to me. He was a fan of my washtub bass and thought I might do something with it.
My son Riley gets builders credit on this one. He wanted to do a full scale six string guitar, so we found a few online examples of guitars made with a similar tub.
We put together some rough plans and he built it with help from dad. It is sort of a hollow-body electric. It has a piezo disc pickup on the sound-board under the bridge. The background track on the video is just a phone recording of me strumming on it without an amp. At the end he is plugged in.
How it went together:
I was proud of the kid and of the way it turned out.
