A man and his hubcap

Guitar that is. At the Sunday fleamarket this chap was playing and selling his 3 string slide guitars made from hubcaps!! An idea he had got from the internet he makes the fretwork, adds all sorts of bits and pieces to adorn it such as teaspoons, tea strainers, door knockers. He is a rocker from the Rolling Stones days although he played Hawaiian guitar himself. Picks up hubcaps from the roadside, knocks out the dents,polishes them sometimes,adds strings etc and all in a day. $200 a piece and he sold one while I was there.
