Finally made a resonator, and it has become my first six stringed guitar :D Exited about this one. It has a humbucker pickup and a toggle switch to humbucker and two piezo's.. The resonator part is a cat bowl with two connected metal disks. One on top and one inside the box. Inside the box I attached springs to the disk for a reverb. I put two volume controls and a tone control in it to blend the sound. The box is made of rosewood as well as the fret board..maple neck..and it has a bull bone nut..other wooden parts are Brazilian greenheart..

Photos were taken at one of the most beautiful places of my town.. but here in Holland it is also just the beginning of spring.. no leaves on the trees yet.. just the first weeds and flowers are coming up the last 2 weeks.. the nicest time of year!

You live in a lush paradise. It's the brown beginnings of Spring here in old Duluth.

Thanks Dave! I always pick a good day to make some pictures in nature and play some when I have finished a new build :)
