AGP #465 - “Teak Tray”
3 String Fretless Guitar
Strings: .040NW .026NW .018NW
Tuned: A E a
The $6 Teak Serving Tray was a Charity Shop Purchase, which I managed to cut it in half and form a Box/Body without too much trouble.
The Neck is Recycled Laminated Camphor Laurel and Cedar, and all Timber is coated with 3 Coats of Shellac.
A 9.4k Fender P Bass Style Humbucker set up is wired through Vol and Tone Pots to the Output Jack. :-)

Yep! A.D., nearly all my builds are put together with Recycled Timber and various Charity Shop Bodies etc., which does mean that there is a considerable savings cost, and No!, I don't have a set goal for the Build Numbers, the main reason I keep building is to keep my mind and body active, and to avoid sitting in front of the TV watching Soapies etc. all day with the Missus. ;-D

Must save a lot on producing your Builds Alan !  so your full consentration is on necks ,pickups, and headstocks, while you scan  the town for bowls,boxes, and other shapes for your builds, it sure keeps you busy ,producing your Massive collection of builds ,whats your goal a thousant? or do you have no number ? greeeetsz from holland ,keep it up Alan !
