thank ya'all,so glad ya'all enjoyed. the box is swamp cypress(cedar),and the top and

back are 1/8" luan plywood.the bridge is mahogany and black walnut. the soundholes

are laser cut in a tree of life design. i hammered the resonator from a copper plated

aluminum picknic plate. the tailpiece is a metal shoe-horn. the neck is square,and the

action is about 1/2" high. scale length is 24 3/4"". tuning is open G. thanks again.

Pretty close to a ten.  Wow.  Even the back side.   Great sound holes.   Nice hammered copper look to the reso.   What is the reso?
