six string

First six stringer. Recycled old garbage custom kraft neck. It was bowed bad, ultimately I couldn't use the frets past 12 so I just cut them off and threw in a thin piece of Spanish cedar from a box with a red abalone inlay. Nut came with the guitar. Going to replace with bone. Saddle/bridge is temporary; just checking my frets before I carve a piece of ebony and throw a bone saddle on it. Strings ground on the brass plate that is keeping them from cutting the edge of the box. First magnetic pup build too. Prewired C.B. Gitty pup.
