Kodak Can Banjo!

August 22, 2007

Kodak Can BanjoWe were talking to John D. in Charles City Iowa the other day and he mentioned he plays a banjo made from an old Kodak film can.

I’ve heard this banjo (John sent me an mp3 file) and it sounds wonderful.  To be honest, I was shocked to find out that I was listening to a homemade instrument. This thing just rocks!

I don’t know if John is making any more of these, but you can visit his web site for contact information – and if you’re out in Iowa he’s looking for people to jam with.
