Thanks Uncle John. I’m in the process of modifying the frame. It worked pretty well, but a few oversights on my part. I normally need to make a prototype before I can figure out how it should be done. The piezo is hot! I put a thin piece of wood between the aluminum and piezo in addition to the thick double sided tape to get a woodier tone. You’ll note the blue painters tape and felt; had serious buzzing problems. Break angle over the bridge is too flat, but the next version will correct it. Hope to have it in a few days, may be sporting a different plate and I may make it right handed. Haven’t decided yet. I have too many leftys on hand.

Will try a thicker piece of wood next time, might cool down the hot response!
Good ideas on the wood spacer with the piezo.

Nice frame. How did that piezo on a plate work for you? I have had some not so good luck doing that.
