Got a nice smooth growl with sustain.

2 days ago I nearly threw out an old broomstick and I have 2 old morris minor hubcaps, mmm seasick steve replica maybe.

I've all but abandoned my fretted guitars. Funny you mentioned the fretless hubcap. Looking forward to getting one in the near future from a fellow builder. I'll be searching for some new sounds in the new year.

I wasn't sure about fretless but now I can see why some love them. Now maybe a hubcap fretless. 40w new Cube for sure this guitar has a humbucker and the nastiest setting the better it sounds.

The Amp, newer Cube? Sounds great!

Well first off, you are not in Iowa.   Secondly, Clock said it well.  I second that.   :)     Sounding great.  

I need fretted guitars to do some things and will not give them up.   But it seems to me that a fretless of 4 or less strings is the classic cbg. 

Are you hooked?

That is a low down and mean sounding piece of hardware you've got there...

My first fretless build.
