The Bobby

Posted by Bill Turner (Wunkyman) on February 12, 2013 at 1:16pm

Using math and methods derived from building from a C.B.Gitty kit I created this custom body and neck for by brother-in-law, Bobby. I made an MDF frame and skinned it with 1/4 inch plywood. THe strings pass through the body and ride on screw heads that act as a bridge and nut.More images of the build can be seen here.http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.465048226893434.110833.100001647828547&type=3
