Kitchen Strainer Reso Build - Robert Johnson Tribute

Posted by Delta Blues Classics - JStoltz on March 30, 2011 at 1:43am

This is my most recent build. It's a resonator built using a kitchen strainer and a stainless steel bowl. It's finished inside and out, including a painting of Robert Johnson on the inside of the lid. I still have a few things to tweak on it, but it's close to done. Thanks for taking a look at it! ~Jeff

Thanks George.......I'm sure you won't have any trouble doing that. You've already built some great looking guits.

Beautiful work! That is a serious piece of art. Thanks for posting this one. I know what my new challange is... making the inside as cool as the outside!

Thanks my friend, yes that's a chair back that I used for the cross brace.

You've done beautiful work. This is as much a bit of art as it is an instrument.

Is that a chair-back, supporting the resonator? I wish I'd had something like that to cut my bass bridge from.
