From Bill:
Cross between guitar and ukulele instrument. Four strings with neck-through-body construction reminiscent of a banjo.
I was extremely fortunate enough to acquire this piece from the Bill Jehle Cigar Box Guitar Museum. I think it is pretty rare that Bill lets anything go and I am beyond grateful. It is a pre World War II cigar box instrument about the size of a baritone ukulele. Incredible piece.
He wants to do a 1-string project and find "Sam's" one string. He's done some research. I told him that he really needed to work with One String Willie.
