Pure & Simple/Uncle Crow 3-String Build

This is my take! Alder neck, 20.1” scale length, disc piezo, 3D printed easy to swap out pickguard, nail gun brad nail frets attached with double,stick tape, 3 sound holes on box side. 5,4,3 strings from an acoustic set. Surprisingly resonant!

  • Thanks Glenn! The brad nails are cut and inserted into a 3D printed holders that are 1/8” wide. I use 1/8” double sided adhesive tape from scrapbook.com and it has worked out pretty good. I use calipers and measure the height of each fret and then sequence them accordingly. The heights don’t vary that much, but it minimizes fret buzz. I will be playing it at our Monday Zoom Jam and I record the sessions, so I will try to post a song.

  • Nice Doug! Would love to hear it. And what kind of double-stick tape, holds those brad frets down tight enough? Thx, -Glenn
