AGP #245 - '' 氷知られています '' (1)

AGP #245 - 氷知られています (Kankara Sanshin)
Scale: 800mm / 31½inches
Strings : Small Sanxian : Steel / Copper & Nylon
Tuning: G / D / G /
All timber is recycled, the Neck I think is Tallowwood, the Tunings Pegs and Nut are I think Spotted Gum, the Bridge is an Ebony Piano Key, the String Tailpiece is a scrap of Poplar, and the Headstock Wings are Spruce Pine.
Couldn’t find much info on dimensions etc, for this build, so just winged it, found out the scale length is somewhere between 600mm and 1000mm so went halfway with 800mm.

"Thanks Uncle John & the anonymous pick", didn't get any cake from this build, but did get some just deserts of sorts, in the form of a lot of little annoying splinters from the recycled neck.

"Thanks Jerry Jordan", Yep! happy with the Tuners, a fair bit of time involved when making for the first time, will be a bit smarter and wiser if there is a next time!!!
