She sounds sweet and very Dobro like with the Gitty Thunder in there. So, the gear to date. One 23 inch scale Winston Japanese guitar. Zebra fretboard, Gitty tuners, Tiger Maple pick guard, Swamp Witch strings, mahogany braces, tailpiece off the guitar, bone nut, temporary biscuit bridge, Mirro aluminum pot lid cover plate, Gitty Thunder cone, black striped fretboard. Mop dots to come.

" Got a bone bridge on my biscuit today...".   What's there to rewrite, Ron?  That's surely what the blues are all about!  (I'd buy the T-shirt!).  LOL!

Comment by Ron "Oily" Sprague on December 8, 2016 at 4:24pm
Yep, gonna hafta rewrite that last verse.she's a beaut, Dave. Post a vid!
Comment by Dave Lynas on December 8, 2016 at 4:04pm
Thanks Bluesheart, she's nearly done sept for some painting on the wood cover plate surround. Got a bone bridge on my biscuit today (I made two and remade one more). Worth it, sounds even better.
Comment by Bluesheart on December 8, 2016 at 12:28pm

It is a knockout! That fretboard!!!

Comment by Dave Lynas on December 8, 2016 at 10:10am
Thanks Jerry. I've been struggling with the bone bridge biscuit. Made two bridges then rebuilt one. The height and a slot for the bone saddle dogged me. Stain then installation. We'll see...
