Tips on Making your Altoid Tin Electric Guitar

Step 3Tips

Tips
When drilling holes into the tin, get a hammer and screw or nail and tap the spot you will drill to get a cleaner hole.

Use electric tape to put in the Piezo instead of hot glue incase you need to replace/reuse it

Try using pedals, I got to use some of my friends pedals and was able to make lots of interesting and cool sounds.

Make sure to put the bic pen piece on the bottom of the tin, I tried using electrical tape and it kinda worked but I should have added more.

Mark the areas you will drill.
