AGP #287 - “Blend Pot”(3 String Cigar Box Guitar)Scale : 457.2mm / 18 inchesStrings : .036NW / .026NW / .018NW /Tuning: D / A / d /Every now and then I do build an actual “Cigar Box Guitar”, the Neck is Grey Ironbark and the Fretboard is White Oak.The main idea behind this build was to use one of the 5 Dual Blend Potentiometer’s I purchased quite awhile back but never took the time to look into how they were wired or worked, a 3.7k Lipstick Pickup and a 27mm Piezo Disc are wired through the “Blend Pot” and Tone Pot to the Jack, I think I got right???, as everything seems to work as required, but not overly impressed with the outcome, but this could be due to the fact that I’m not a big fan of Piezo’s, currently working on a build with a Single Coil, Humbucker, Blend Pot, Tone and Volume.
