‘Killing In the Name’ by Rage Against the Machine Covered on a One-Stringed Fretless Shovel Guitar

Rob Scallon, an incredibly talented musician with a great sense of humor, performed a one-string version of the head-banging 1990s angsty anthem “Killing In The Name” by Rage Against the Machine on his amazing fretless shovel guitar. Scallon’s unusual guitar was made by Bob Clagett of I Like to Make Stuff, who very generously shared how he crafted the instrument.
