Cigar Tin Resonator

All done unless I decide to put a Gitty-bucker surface mount pickup on it. Currently has a piezo. Plays and sounds pleasing. DGB. Finger chords or open G.The tin was a gift from Dave Lynas when I bought slides from him a couple of years ago. He saw a pic of this without a sound hole and suggested the off set hole and showed me a pic of one of his offsets with a carved moon man. I did the wolf in paper.

  • Thanks, Glenn and Vinnie. Video posted a while back.
  • Uncle I really like this one. Cool, tin also cool. Dobro, license plate sort of sound? -Glenn

  • Righteous work ,Son..I see you have some relic experience.Cheers.

  • LOL, Jock.   This true!

  • Once again a nice simple build that has turned out really sweet. I guess that you don't spend a lot on fret wire. :-D

  • Thanks a lot, Glenn, Dennis and Dave.  I am pretty happy with how this one ended up and how it plays and sounds.  Good tone, volume and playabilty.  I had to add the string bar and one guide screw on the peg head to make it play well.   

    Dennis, I love that werewolf saying and after using the wolf image twice now, I may likely use it again.

  • Paper is a great way to mock up decorations or carvings. I use stiff index paper for my lumberjack mock ups. I love this one Unc. A fine guit tinner.

  • Cool build Unc! Love to hear this :) -Glenn

  • Thanks, Alan and Ron.  Alan, I think you called it on no top mount.  I think this one will be used mostly for acoustic anyway.

  • Nice guitar, like the sound hole with the howling wolf.
