Hi Duncan, I can see Ju has already been warning you about my banjo habit. I think secretly he's jealous. Me and Ju have been talking about getting to a gig soon so we will give you a shout and we can all hook up.
Up the Sheffield Massive!
well your not on your own when it comes to shite playing - i'm not to good either ... more of a builder than player lol ! - yes mate i make 3 string guitars infact i'm just making two of the Plank Style three string guitars

I've used both 650 and 604 scale lengths.I usedthe 604 on a Gran Corona box like yours in the photo ..this gave 23 frets when the fingerboard continued over the box front to a conventional sound hole ..thought the proportions looked right.
You'll find a good fret calculator at Manchesterguitartech.co.uk
