AGP #524 – “Symmetry”3 String Fretless GuitarScale : 654mm / 25¾”Strings : .044NW / .030NW / .020NW /Tuned: G D gGot the inspiration for the Shape of this Build when I stumbled across a Utube Video about a Guitar called Symetress, built by a couple of Guitar Builders somewhere in the USA called Alder and Main, loved the look of it so decided to do a similar scaled down CBG Type version.The through Body Neck is Recycled (I think) Blackbutt Hardwood, the Body and Headstock Wings are recycled Radiata Pine, the Wings were coated with a Cedar Stain, the Neck is Au-Natural, both coated with Linseed Oil and Paste Wax.The 2 Alnico Single Coil Pickups are wired as per a Fender Precision Bass Wiring Diagram, through 250k Pots to the Output Jack.All the Copper Work was made by Moi, from opened up and flattened pieces of scrap ½” and ¾” Copper Plumbers Pipe. :-)

"Thanks UJ", Loved the Shape of this Guitar Body as soon as I stumbled across it on either on Utube or FB, can't remember which one, it not only looks great, but sits on my lap very comfortably, there will be more similar Builds in the future, probaly upscale the body size a bit :-)
