At 5:19 in this video interview, Rick Nielsen talks about his custom Hamer Box Guitar.
He says, “Here’s another one that Hamer made for me. This was made for the Rockford Album. This one actually sounds really good too. It’s got the graphic from the Rockford album and it’s a cool box guitar. Conan O’Brien played this a number of times and I played it quite a bit. It looks like a Bo Diddley, kind of the square box and all that stuff, but it actually sounds terrific. I wasn’t sure that it would, but it does.”
