    I really have a soft spot for cheap and sometimes crappy instruments because you can make music with almost anything, no matter how low the bar. Play with it, record it, edit it and sometimes you don't even have to do much. Each instrument comes with its own charme. Yes, even the REALLY bad ones. All it takes is... accepting it for what it is and make the most out of it. Be creative. And you'll be surprised what you can pull off with very little :)

    Those "mics" for 6$ are really great for acoustic instruments. I've been using one of those for my classical guitar even in live setups and it's OK. The trick is that it's just a piezo element, not a real mic, so it's not that expensive to produce. Many electroacoustics use the similar elements, just in different shape.

    I built my own S-type kit from Ammoon, even though it would have been slightly cheaper to buy one fully assembled. Then I upgraded the pickups, the tuners, the nut, and the pickguard/pickup carrier. And it still came out to less than $200, even counting the cost of polyurethane and stains and guitar-specific tools like a fret file and an action gauge. This is the guitar that I sampled for my (free) virtual instrument, Blue Jeans and Moonbeams. The only thing wrong with it is that I need to replace the 14th fret because I mistakenly did all my fret leveling with it not quite hammered all the way in, and now it's too low on one end.

Just to offer some constructive criticism, although I really liked the song at the end (it gave me chills), it was mixed in such a way that the sound of the DIY guitar kind of overpowered everything else, so even while intently listening with headphones I struggled to pick out the other instruments. While in a musical sense it probably sounds better the way you did it, I feel that it could have been more satisfying as a finale to the video if the mixing had put the instruments on more equal footing.

My often overprotective-but strangely open-minded-mother would only let me go to the all ages show if she could check out the venue (Phideaux’s if I’m remembering right) beforehand. On the afternoon of the show, I went down there with her for the approval process. We arrived during soundcheck. The guitarist was on stage using some sort of handheld device to get this crazy electronic buzzing/whirring/grinding sound through his amp. Intrigued, I approached him and asked how he was creating this incredible noise. He revealed to me a piece of “gear” that I was wholly unfamiliar with. My mother walked up just in time for him to say, “It is ‘wibrator.’” I was ultimately denied attendance. To this day, I believe it was the “toy” that broke the camel’s back.
