yello there trees , i finished that uke finally, ive been nursing that dang rib so havent been getting much done. I got a 3mm action across the board and it plays way good. and the neck isnt a baseball bat haha !! thanks for the input my good friend. on to the next one !!!
Just go to Ted Crockers site I think he's got something onCBN. He sells all kinds of CBG stuff,makes his own piezos. I'm goin to get one for my Rezo I'm makein.
Thanks for asking about the cbg, BT, she is strung up but not quite complete. So far so good though, and it appears both the action and the intonation are at least in the right ball park, so very happy so far. I will post pics of it when I finish.
Hey, that pighead box is just a Brickhouse box that had a bad label on it so i cleaned it off and painted her. I was going to use it for a build until my wife claimed it for her random things (keys and such). Guess i should post a pic of just the box.
