22d CBG Build Mike Willmouth July 28 2017

The bridge, tail piece and jack plate are also made out of Cocobolo wood. I installed a round Piezo pickup under the lid along with a volume pot and knob, and I installed a .01uf Ceramic Disc Capacitor across the output jack leads. The strings are bronze wound - A (.042); D (.032); and G (.022). The tuning is GDG. The "Just Intonation" works regardless of the tuning as long as you use all wound strings.

    Nice all round build, love the worn box look and the string tailpiece, one of my favourite types, that I use more often than not.

    Yup.  Nice on this end too.  Detail.  Nice job making the box look much used too.
