Very nice job, and the range of tones - WOW!

I too, would like to know more about which piezo you used and the placement.

Nice use of, well, are they radiator bleed keys? Gives it a bit of a steampunk theme. Agree with John on the range of tones. Good solid guitar.

Nice looking insturment. The choice of hardware works really nicely. The range of tones available is great. Love it.

Oh yeah!!!  I really like this build.  BIG winner in my book.  If you don't mind, I'm actually building a reso right now and have been puzzled over the piezo placement.  Did you place yours on the cone "underneath" or on the bridge on top of the cone?

Thanks for the help;

Kidd

Relics rule and this cowboy build rules even more.

Stunningly beautiful and sounding instrument, I'd give me right arm to play that.
