Dog Bowl Resonator CBG

Posted by Taffy Evans on November 11, 2015 at 4:02pm

Hi Guys, I thought I'd try posting on this Aussie site. This guitar is my first CBG reso, although I have built full size Dobro and solid body Resonator guitars.

This is experimental as building is one thing, getting a good sound is another. I'm working on suitable bridge configurations at the moment.

It has a piezo pickup with tone and volume pots. The volume control is on the top and the tone is in the bottom side. The guitar is built out of wood [pine] fencing from around my yard.

Enjoy, Taff

    Hi tdq, the tail piece is cut from a napkin holder that would normally sit on a table with paper napkins standing in it. Cheers Taff

    Very cool. What have you used there for the tailpiece?
