Shelly Rickey plays a mean saw. And bairfoot Cajun just posted a brick guitar. I built a gastank bass for a No wood challenge we had in here a couple years ago. It didnt turn out as good of a player piece as I would have liked. So I will dive back into it one day. Or eventually part it out. Not sure yett. I dont care much for guitars that dont make alot of sound. Maybe Ill find some place that would wants it for decoration?
thats cool sorry guys for being so far out of it. just working 14 hours a day for 5 to 6 days a week man. it tuff. i have manage to build a 6 string cbg. and working on a 4 string cbg. and a nother 3 string cbg thats leather. people coming out every were here wanting them
and work dont help with the time
I've got a 3' wooden tiki spoon and an old green leather cosmetic case that are going to be an acoustic bass as soon as I work out the kinks in the design.
why do you think you are not a great "PLAYER" ? I am certain you are.

i use lots of different things to build guitars with in a quest for variations on tone. i,m not a great player by any means but i still try to do video sound checks for other folks to hear what the unusual looking builds sound like. its all in good fun, this guitar has a metal waffle iron shell for the body to get a metal resonator type tone. it sounds better than the one i built out of a boat paddle.
