First resonator build done and on the market. Real happy with the sound of the old lowe cone also added a pre amp with rod piezo under the saddle in the biscuit and it captures the reso sound awesome. I was kinda worried about that but its sweet.

I guess I dont see what makes your biscuit bridge any different than a standard biscuit bridge besides exotic wood and you pay alot of attention to detail and you shellack the hell out of them to get a nice glass finish. Besides that looks like every other biscuit bridge I saw round wood with something straight for strings to sit on. I dont see how you think I ripped off "YOUR IDEA" I simply made a round biscuit with a bolt sticking out slapped a rod piezo under the saddle I beleive thats standard proceedure and glued a peice of wood on either side to hold it in place. Personally I think the bridge is the least attractive part of this build and dont know why I am even responding to this insult.
I make build parts as a second income ,been doing it for many years. Even before i had a computer and the rest of the world saw my work. I don`t mind helping fellow builders out, i do it all the time. But i take great lengths to come up with the designs i do, many hours i put into a design to get it just right before i offer it for sale and to take orders on it. Just ask anyone thats ever used any of my work...it`s top of the line.
Wow, we all post and share ideas and techniques here. I don't see at all how that is any kind of infringement on anyone elses' design. Standard reso biscuit set up. You did a great job on it. Gotta love a guitar with a sense of humor, or is that femur?
I do think one of your art works would have looked good in her thou. I said I would make it a bolt in in case I got the cash to install THE ONE I REALLY WANTED. I havnt left that option out but I already got it up for sale so may have to be my next build I love your regular bridge set ups too any interest in trading hand made parts or pick ups for this guitar message me looking for cool stuff for my next build.
THATS THE ONLY WAY I WOULD KNOW HOW TO MAKE A RESO BICUIT JUST COULD NEVER MAKE ONE AS PRETTY AND NICE AS YOURS DONT LOOK UP CLOSE ITS GOT ITS FLAWS but sounds good would have been better with bone saddle but ill leave that to you on my next build I hope I didn't rub you wrong randy just did what I could from pics I saw on the nation to make the build sound good I wanted to outfit her with a whole set up from ya but my wife couldn't understand why I needed the money next time bro.
