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 ;-)

Awesome !!

I've almost finished my second Toilet seat guitar, which I got commissioned to make by an awesome African guitarist called Will Sherrat aka: Mr Will. I'll post the pics and do a vid as soon as it's done :O)

My next project for myself is a CBG dog bowl Resonator, which I want to have a go at making the neck for. Not made a neck yet. Is there a website for the fretboard scale measurements pls?

Cheers

Gary
