Old hat, new git, new hat.

This little 22 inch scale three string uses the body from a white, junior sized guitar that T. Robert Johnson gave me. The pickup sounded crappy before, but somehow sounds growly great with the current AEa tuning.Old hat on the right. New hat - an old Stetson Sovereign found for FIVE DOLLARS at a yard sale. I might have given 50. Size is 7 and a half and I usually wear 7 and 3/8. Big hat. :)I hope to use the original neck from that body on another project.

    Thanks, Kirt.   That little git got gifted to a young player.

    Great "new" old hat and I feel the same on giving the Jr. sized Git a new life with better sound.

    Thanks, Pick. 

     Gees, Wes.  I was going for blues man, but I think you nailed it,  I still like it a lot.   I could be Walker's stupid, comic side kick.  And get all the women.   Kind of like Cisco and Pancho.
