When I built this guitar I didn't like it but I worked on it until now I can't put it down.
Fun easy to hold and the pickup has much better tone then I thought it would.
22.5 scale Gitty pickup.

as for the video someone left the potatoheads out and I saw them and put them to work. I don't know why the filter turned yellow and I know you can see my hand and shadows.

Buzz plugged or unplugged?

John this thing has a top rattle witch i can fix and a buzz I can't find, the neck is glued to the box , I may need to seal the neck where it goes into the box. it always something. I don't want it to be perfect just stay in tune and have the neck stay straight.

What?!   I clicked LIKE 11 times and it only took one.  Well, I'd have been pleased to just hear this one and the amp.   The potato head name and mini-movie was just great and made it a lot of fun.   Good work.

As for that git, it 's a real nice looking fretless.  Seems like first impressions when you string up a build don't always last.  I sometimes spend weeks or months finding the right tuning and little tweaks that make a build better.   Used to be I did not like that tweaking.  Now I do.   Have a buzzing turpentine build I hope to cure tomorrow with some advice from Maddog,
