#38 is finito!ππΎππ½
25" scale.
Hand-shaped ("D" shape) red oak neck and fretboard. The neck is anchored to the box by the strap button screw. that's all.
Signature arrowhead headstock has gold Kaynes locking tuners.
Neck is stained and waxed using Howard Feed-N-Wax.
Water buffalo bone nut. (yes, that one slot is crikkid. it'll keep a smaller gauge string from buzzing).
19 medium sized nickel frets. ( #19 is superglued to the board due to the thinness)
Humbucker neck pickup.
Piezo disk pickup under the bridge- π
(mmmm...PIE zo......) π₯§zo π»
Adjustable roller bridge is anchored to the top of the box, not to the neck underneath.
Three way selector switch for humbucker, piezo, or both.
Volume and tone control both pickups. the piezo is almost as loud as the humbucker so i left it this way. a tone capacitor cuts out the upper highs and scratchy noise the sensitive piezo picks up without muddling the sound too much.
Soundholes are pick axes (this being a "western themed" build).
Currently tuned to EBE using Earnie Ball bronze 24/32/44 strings.
Properly intonated within a couple cents here and there.
This one is for a current client but may become available to the public.
I just received some maple wood that i plan to use for future guitar necks...
