The Edge

Posted by Matte Resist on June 29, 2009 at 12:45pm
I ran across this box and had to make it for my dad. It says "The Edge" on the top and one side. My dad goes to a church called "The Edge" so I had to make him a guitar with it. Plus, the other one I gave him was the first one I made and I've made a lot of improvements on my guitar building... so I thought he deserved one that was a little nicer (finished neck, piezo disc instead of piezo tab and grounded to eliminate 60 cycle hum, geared tuners, plastic nut (instead of a screw), soundhole rings, actual bridge instead of an eye bolt, metal strings that terminate inside the body (instead of nylon strings that tie to screws on a neck through) I gave it to him for father's day (a week late.)
