What I did do was transform it into a string trough the body guitar, the silent guitar originally wasn´t like that, so in order to get better sustain I drilled it and worked it to get the strings trough it.

Thanks, intonation is not a problem. I used a factory silent guitar, took off the frame and put the cigar box in it. So I didn´t even touch the neck. It has a truss rod all so. You´re right I would not have built a six string neck.

first off, very nice guitar, seccond, how did you get the intonation to work on this build, assuming the intonation is good.  iv found that intonation is the single largest killer in a 6 string build.
