Nail holes left to show the humble origins (a pallet). Mystery light weight, light color wood. Electric strings. Quiet acoustic. Fair tone. Disc piezo. Very loud amped and sounds good.

Thanks, Bruce.  Glad I left them unfilled.

Very nice, love the nail holes!

Help your self to some rhubarb.   Plenty there.  

Yes, Logan,  and she pretty much is doing a consignment or two for me.   No success yet.  I've had the turpentine tin build over there a while.  Much picking up and strumming, but no sales.   May switch it for this one or the White Owl Pallet build to see if that goes over (sells) better.  

 

I will sell a fretless build pretty cheaply.    They cost me very little and are so much fun to slap together.

P.S. The flowers look good and thats a healthy lookin' rhubarb plant back there :-)

I thought it looked like a single piece of wood, love the shaping ya did! Does she do consignments over at the Rust Bucket, in Logan right?

Comment by Uncle John on August 11, 2013 at 7:43am

Thanks Pat.  That is one piece of wood.  Nothing glued up.   This one may go over to the Rust Bucket and be up for sale.

As you know John, I love having some history to gits. The more you can leave the better the history, I love the shape of the neck. Just pleasing all around :-)
