Scale: 629mm/24¾ inches. Strings: .052NW/.036NW/.024NW/. Tuned EBe.A 6k Ceramic Magnet Single Coil Pickup is wired through a Vol Pot, Tone Pot and 3 Way Switch, a 35mm Piezo Disc, which is taped to the Saw Blade, is wired through a Vol Pot, both are wired through a 3 Way Switch and onto the Output Jack. :-)
