"Big Foot" Acoustic Rhythm Foot Pedal

"No, I don't have any vids, sorry, Dylan, but how it works is you strap it on your right foot, and as you tap your foot in time you get a nice wood-block accompaniment, that you can vary in volume (it can get loud!) It has two pieces of wood…"

Profile Information

Welcome to the Clubhouse! How did you hear about us?
From www.cigarboxnation.com, of which I am a member.
What instruments are you building or playing?
I have been building cigar box guitars and amps, and fiddles. I am planning to build a cigar box uke and a tin can banjo. May try my hand at some other things, like an electric washboard. I have created and built a unique rhythm instrument, a foot-tapping percussion pedal that gets strapped on the foot for some toe-tapping, wood block effects. I play many instruments, among them the musical saw and am learning to use a theremin.

Hi Tim, welcome to the Clubhouse!  Seems you have odd enough ideas to fit right in, post some pics/vids of your creations.

The focus here is on all types of handmade instruments and music. There are lots of helpful builders and players here and lots of Groups to teach and learn. We welcome participation so don't be shy.

Have a look around, introduce yourself in My Name Is... and add yourself to the Member Map. There's an active Chat Room where you can ask questions, offer help or just talk about anything with some great folks.

Most of all Have Fun!
