AGP #465 - “Teak Tray”
3 String Fretless Guitar
Strings: .040NW .026NW .018NW
Tuned: A E a
The $6 Teak Serving Tray was a Charity Shop Purchase, which I managed to cut it in half and form a Box/Body without too much trouble.
The Neck is Recycled Laminated Camphor Laurel and Cedar, and all Timber is coated with 3 Coats of Shellac.
A 9.4k Fender P Bass Style Humbucker set up is wired through Vol and Tone Pots to the Output Jack. :-)

"Thanks UJ", another item I couldn't walk past in the local rubbish dump recycle shop, it did sit in the shed for a month or two before I decided how I was going to use it, but in the end it was a somewhat simple process, despite the fact the fact that it took me nearly 4 weeks to finish it, due to a lower back injury, which thankfully is now on the mend, due to a cortisone injection, which these days is sadly becoming part of life as an aging old fart !! :-)

That has a real nice look to it, Alan.  Kind of subtle, but good enough to sit and look and look some more.
