Ewan Dobson and the Dental Floss Guitar
Hey guys, has anybody ever seen anything like this before?
It's a pretty cool video of Ewan Dobson playing a guitar strung with dental floss. Has anybody ever tried using anything else for guitar strings? or used dental floss for anything creative? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HO08T4ukuac Last edited by akuaku; 10-01-2012 at 11:20 AM. |

I have several guitars strung with real strings....and I can't make them sound that good. Ewan Dobson has to have more fun playing his guitars than about anyone else out there.
That is a pretty awesome song as well.

Just goes to show that it's not the strings that make the music...it's the player.

Great playing, nice tune, good music, horrible tone from the guitar. Its novel but nylon strings would sound better.

I know this might sound weird, but at the risk of sounding like a weirdo...that man has the sickest left hand pinky dexterity I have ever seen! Yes...I am jealous

Absolutely amazing watching the bottom E string oscillate. Like a slow-motion video capture of a normal string, but the pitch is normal. |

My teeth don't sound that good when I floss and judging by the fillings, at some point they have opened up.
