AGP #454 - ''Strainer Reso''
AGP #454 - “Strainer Reso” 3 String Fretless Baritone Guitar Scale: 29 inches Strings: .044NW .030NW .020NW Tune: F C f The Body Frame is solid 38mm recycled Radiata Pine, the Bottom Board is recycled 4mm Laminated Cedar Venetian Blind Slats, the Top Soundboard is store bought 7mm Pine Ply, the Neck is recycled Grey Iron Bark and Cypress Pine, all coated with an Oak Stain, and 2 Coats of British Paints Acrylic Clear Gloss. A 15k Humbucker is wired through Vol and Tone Pots to the Output Jack. The Reso Strainer was from a collapsible Steamer Strainer, bought solely for the purpose of using the leaves as Guitar Tailpieces, such as the one on this Build. The Body Shape and approx dimensions were nicked from MGB Guitars Florida’s great Fat Bottom Guitar Body Kit design, hope he doesn’t mind, this is the second time I’ve used this lovely looking shape, it just looks so right, well!, to me anyway. :-)

"Thanks A.D.", purchased the strainer for Tailpiece's, but it seemed a shame not use the bottom base as well, whether or not it has any Reso qualities is up to each individuals own thoughts, but it's nice and shiny, and looks good! :-)
