video here .http://www.cigarboxnation.com/video/woodpicker-with-scots-pickups-and-wooden-bigsby?xg_source=activityscott ( aka farmer ted). gifted me a pair of his hot buttered maple pickups , so i figured i needed to do a wood theme guit . and here it is . complete with wooden bigsby type tremolo . it works great , but creaks some times .. nothing a lil veggie oil wont fix ;-)5 way switch , because there is a hidden humbucker in-between his pickups too. (yes under the lid, and works fine through the wood . )yummy pups man , thanx again ;-)

    thanx guys  .  .  jeff  .    video  link   was  posted above  .

    glad i  can  inspire  you  bjorn  ;-)

    and this  isnt  my  regular swamp witch    design  so  i'm ok with   you   giving it a whirl  on   your  version.  , 

    note  .  the  bottom  wood  bar  on the  tremolo   is  hiding  a  clothes   hanger  wire  for the  strings  to  ride  over  ..  otherwise  the  strings would  dig in     and /or  rip  off the  wood  pole  .  there is alot of    tension there . just a tip  for ya . 

     and  jeff  ,  feel  free to  make a poster  .    you  have  4  pics to choose  from  .  ;-)

     thanx for the kind  comments  guys  

    ;-)

    That is one incredible looking instrument!!!! I may have to make a poster of it. There are alot of good looking things on this site but this may be my favorite. Would love to see a video of it so we can get the tone you have created. Rip it up man, shred some Van Halen or Stevie Ray and be heard by the world!!

    Oh My! Superb, and very tempting to copy! I've been busy with non-cbg things for a while, but now I realy got inspired.

    That's a fantastic build pick! Homemade whammy! That's very cool! Thanks for the info about the pup under the top, that's something I've gotta try.
