As the name suggests, the unknown Hardwood and Pine were resourced from a Local Council Roadside Pickup Day, the Top and Bottom Sound Boards were milled down from a Sleeper size piece of Lumber, and the 20mm thick Pine Box Sides, looked like it was formerly a Pallet, all given one coat of a Brushed on Shellac to highlight the Natural Timber Colours a bit.

The Copper bits and pieces were cut and flattened from pieces of ¾” recycled Copper Pipe, a 8.3k Single Coil Pickup is wired through a Volume Pot to the Output Jack. laughing

  • "Thanks UJ", this is one of those Builds that seems to like the Grungy Amp Effects. laughing

  • "Thank You Jonathan", will try and get a Sound Sample of this Build done today, AGP is the initials for Alan Gregory Payton (not A Good Person wink), so AGP, Alan or Al is fine by me, and of course my Missus calls me a lot of different names at different times, but I can't repeat them here laughing        

  • Good name.  Looks fun too.

  • Yes! Jonathan they are meant to be played, I haven't done any Sound Sample Video of my Builds for 8 months, will try and get some done soon laughing
