AGP #214 - “retsaceleT esreveR”(3 String One Piece Guitar)Scale : 648mm / 25½inchesStrings : .042NW / .030NW / .022NW /Tuning: GDgHad this piece of 35½" x 7" x 1¼”" hardwood lying around in my shed for many years, no idea where it came from, or what type of timber it was (still don’t,), have had a one piece build in mind for a while, and during the process of the build, was pleasantly surprised at the natural colour and grain that lay underneath all the crud & weathering etc , which was further enhanced by a liberal coating of a mixture of Linseed Oil & Turps, a 7.65k Tele Type Neck Pickup is fitted, and I’m very happy with sound of this one, both dirty and clean, and will definitely be building more of these one piece Gits.It's been said that we're a bit backward down here in the upside down land of Aus, so this is my version of an Australian Telecaster!!!.
