HELLTAINIUM SWAMP WITCH GUITAR IS HERE ENTER THE GALLERY

Limited edition swamp witch Helltainium model.

Electric Slide guitar .
-25.5 , inch ( longer scale) neck. .
- Smaller , (more cigar box size) body, and deeper width.

-Distressed , de-freted fretboard (mimicking the old bluesmen stripped parlor guitars with frets ripped out ) also shaved /filed / angled on the bottom edge like they did , to avoid bottle knocking on half string guitars with lots of fretboard space .

. mimicked fret dot removal.

- nut / bolt / bridge .

-Metal top - plasma cut 16 gauge steel ( cut by my local sign guy ) then given special chrome coat treatment .

-Resonator .. (actually an antiqued brass light base fixture) inside , to mimic the faux resonator parlors , (but this one truly adds some ring and echo) . (I have a box of them ).

-red painted interior back and black interior sides .
- black back of body paint
-black back of neck stain

Cooking spray , paint , ink , coffee, stained …
and dipped in mojo ;-)

Wicked. Literally. Turned sideways I thought I saw a face with a smile at the neck end and cheek curves at the ends of the lips. Obviously early morning hallucinations it now seems luls.

thanx dani / bear , The plasma cut out   image  is   just a  flame " sun " cut in   half    on the back  end  ,  and  2  barbwire  type  shapes  on the  front  , kinda  blended   together .

Metal front?...Datz Kool..yum yums..

Comment by Slow Blues Dani & Ol' Grey Bear on May 26, 2016 at 7:17pm
Yum yum. I can see these being massively popular and in demand. What's the image of on the front? I'm sure it's obvious to many, I'm probably too old or uncool to make it out though luls. Nicely done Mr Pick, nicely done.
