Hi Peter, Like your cbg builds. Glad to have you for a nation friend.
Peter,
For this one I actually bought the fret board with the slots pre-cut. I think it was 23 7/8 inch scale.
I tried standard coated bass strings and also the "weed wacker" nylon strings as shown. I crimped ferrules on the ends to secure them in the bridge.
Thanks,
RL
Success ! in case you have plans to make one. grtz. Werner
