  • How do you get a straight neck out of a pallet?

  • Building CBG's is a "Found Art", cause you make em' outta crap you find. The true roots of what we do around here. Can't wait to see the final product Charles, as far as an amp goes there are lots of forums and groups on here that will help with a radio/amp conversion. Cheap easy way to get an amp quick, good luck ol' Top.

  • Stick two wires on and find a wall socket(howling does not endorse this statement haha)
  • I still have my great grand daddy's axe, the handle has been replaced 8 times and the head replaced 3 times.  Saw this whole exercise as an experiment using only materials at hand rather than producing a fine instrument and am already looking at my design with changes in mind.  Today I am gutting an old doorbell to see if the piezo can be made into a pickup.  Problem is I don't have an amp to test it on.  Next project?

  • Arent pallets made of pine ie soft wood? I always presumed it would twist under pressure of strings?
