Build #43, Penelope, 25.5" scale steampunk cabbage shredder guitar. Generic single coil bridge, MGB Five Dolla single coil middle, generic humbucker neck, 5-way switch. Unknown neck, bowed and twisted, frets just about worn through... but it looks way too cool as it is to straighten and re-fret, so it's tuned open E with high action for slide.

Thanks UT! I like open D... DADF#AD for lap steel style playing and DADADF# for playing in "normal" guitar position.

That is one amazing looking axe!  What’s your preferred open tuning?

In my part of the country that is called a kraut cutter. That is a great guitar, each time I look at it I see something different that I like.
