EQUIPMENT
One cheap nylon string (6) guitar made in Brazil (which makes it cool by default)
One set of slightly damaged but fairly versatile vocal chords
A stringless 12-string acoustic Ibanez with a warped neck
Hands for clapping
Fingers for clicking
Feet for stomping
Oh and a shaker named Igor the Igg (edit: sadly, Igor is no more. He was destroyed in a brawl between my two wild children ?)
