AGP #252 - “Chubby”
(3 String Resonator Guitar)
Scale : 641.35mm / 25¼ inches
Strings : .042NW / .028NW / .018NW /
Tuning: G / D / g /
Checker Plate was rescued from a dumpster by my son from his work place, Wild Rose White Oak Moulding box sides were coloured with sharpie markers, the neck and bridge are Merbau, a Dual Rail Humbucker has been split with a 3 way switch, neck and centre pos=4.7k and bridge pos=9.5k, and a Tone Control has been added, don’t know if the 2 springs in the charity shop $1 Stainless Steel Pan make any difference or not???

"Thanks Jim_in_Tucson", to answer the Uncle John question, it could apply to "Build and Builder", but!, no doubt many would disagree on the latter! :-D

Jim, who are you calling a real good  looker?   That git or AGP?

Comment by Jim_N on November 27, 2016 at 4:45am

Creative and unique to say the least. A real good looker.

"Thanks Rick Alexander" for the favourable comment, much appreciated!!

"Thanks Uncle John", I stand corrected!, your comment prompted me to take the springs off and compare, and there is a difference, it' a better sound when with springs on!!!!

"Thanks  Bluesheart", not entirely my own innovations, some from previous builders postings.
