The Diddlebow comes from the mountain folk. We don't know how far back. The mountain folks are very inventive and come up with so many instruments which we are still finding.
This one is a one steel-string guitar. It is 30 inches long by 1- 1/2 wide, two feet on it so it can sit on the a table. It has one geared guitar tuner on one end and a single string runs across the body through a tin can, which is the sound resonator.
You can tune it to any pitch. You use a metal or glass slide just like on a steel or dobro guitar. You run the slide up the string and get a beautiful sliding sound used a lot in playing the blues music and country music. As you move the slide up the string, you will go through all notes in a chromatic scale just like a guitar scale. There is no note you can't find.
Small enough and easy to carry. Try one, you will enjoy it. Cans and label vary.

The DG-255 I received from Lark in the Morning was easily as beautiful as presented. The padded gig bag is a huge plus as well.
The guitar is a solid and has a bigger, more forward sound than I'd anticipated which suits me just fine. It plays easily, surely even more so after I have a guitar tech get it set up for me.
Nice people, excellent service, quick shipping. Nothing not to like here.
This whistle has a beautiful, warm tone and is very responsive. I have used a variety of whistles (including other Kerry whistles), and this one is my favorite to play. While recording my latest album, I needed a whistle in this key pretty quickly, and Lark in the Morning had this delivered to me within a few days. I highly recommend this instrument, and Lark in the Morning is a fantastic place to purchase from with excellent customer service.
I already play a mountain lap dulcimer, but this one gives the instrument a whole different dimension to playing. Really beautiful craftsmanship. Thus isn’t a toy, but a lovely wooden instrument. Very easy to play!
Multifacsited approach to something fun to do!
Plays like a dream. I have MS and am no longer able to play guitar, but this uke let's me play songs again and sing. I had no idea how much I'd missed having music in my body. Thanks, Lark!
