SWAMP WITCH GUITAR URBAN DECAY

CAUTION .!!!!!! IF YOU FEEL THE NEED TO USE THIS METHOD OF WALL OUTLET JACK . DO NOT .. I REPEAT! - DO NOT JUST STICK A WALL PLUG ON A GUITAR CORD , !!! IF ANY CURIOUS PERSON OR CHILD TRIED TO PLUG IT INTO A REAL WALL OUTLET , IT WOULD MOST LIKELY RESULT IN DEATH . HENCE I MODIFIED A RUBBER PLUG CAP ON A REGULAR GUITAR CORD , AND A REGULAR GUITAR JACK THROUGH THE OUTLET TO ACHIEVE THE SAME LOOK , WITHOUT THE DANGER . EVEN IF IT WAS HARD WIRED IN , IT MAY NEED TO BE REPAIRED LATER AND SOMEONE MAY TAKE THE EASY METHOD .. SO DONT DO IT ! .
That being said , here is " urban decay " ,

the inner wall slats are cigar box sides and the neck stained .

top board is busted up and distressed white faced particle board to resemble drywall .

electric casing is painted plastic hose ;-)

Comment by Slow Blues Dani & Ol' Grey Bear on July 26, 2016 at 8:35am: Gorgeous. Even with the decay it's a piece of beautiful art. Wonderful sound too as one would expect from a Swamp Witch guitar. Another hit Pick. One very fortunate recipient likely jumping up and down with sheer joy. Wow.

Comment by the anonymous pick on July 26, 2016 at 2:27am: thanx wes , this was a fun one .

cheers digly , lol , it took me about 3 nights of scratching my head to figure out the "safe " way of doing it , cause i really wanted that look ,but without any risk . then thinking ahead and others involved in the future , this was the safest way to go . even as far as protecting myself for planting the idea , and others using it .

we are creating product , we have to keep em save and think beyond the product itself . ;-)
