I thought it was kinda cool, until I read his rant and saw his price tag...........
Really? For a cutout butcher block and bolt on neck? And that head stock and tree? No, I dont think so. It looks to me like he had to tune the two e-strings up backwards 'cause of his head stock design (or the lack thereof)?
Sorry, I dont see a $2600 guitar by any stretch of the imagination, maybe I need to go back to my "boutique" forum! (Or not.......)
It would be sweeter if he'd used an old beat up used cutting board. I have a 8" Dia. bowl made the same way, looks kinda checkerboard cutting board styled. I'm considering making it into a mini Banjo/Uke. Got it at the local thrift store for 99 Cents.
I must admit I have had the idea of using a bamboo cutting board for the same thing. Two problem though, cutting boards tend to split at the joints sometimes, (just glued up blocks) and they are heavy. Now back to the lightweight hollow box's.
