The Muckbucket: another innovative 2-string bass

Here's a link to a photo of another innovative 2-string bass.

http://www.drangers.ca/promo2_high_res.jpg

This is called a "Muckbucket", and although the photo doesn't show it very well, the bucket is a plastic tub (maybe 15 inches?). I suppose the washtub idea isn't new, but this takes it to a new level.

The D-Rangers also feature the Saw (always a big hit).

The D-Rangers are out of Winnipeg and they are one ass-kicking party band. They are always a good time. With them the tub sounds as good as I've ever heard a tub sound, sorta proving the notion that it's all about feel.

Have I danced sufficiently around the fact that it's a tub?
