That's prett impressive. I didn't even look through your videos. I was so distracted by how they look. I'm gonna go check it out.

Thanks for the kind words Better Trees. This guitar is actually 4 guitars in one as the nut and saddle are grooved for 3 string, 4 string, 4 string w/ dbl high and also dbl 3.  I have sold a lot of dbl 3 stings as people love them but with this one all you have to do is change the strings to change configuration. I try to make them very versatile so people get their moneys worth. I think it was tuned a,d,a,d in that acoustic video I posted of this guitar.

That's an interesting string setup. I like how it doesn't scream that it has an odd number of strings, it's just kinda got that extra machine head.   What is this one tuned to?

Nice clean build, love! the table it's on, I would definitely incorporate that into a ''Rustic Type'' CBG or Lap Steel.
