That little rhyme in the beginning translates to "Squashed beer cap, bottle of wine and a fat spring." (but hey - the rhyme works in my language :P )<br></br>

<br />
A bit on it:<br />
- old coronas tubes box that was used for several experimental builds - all of them failed, so it has some holes and cracks here and there.<br />
- alder neck from piece of fence<br />
- eyebolt + rosewood scrap bridge<br />
- handound springs from music wire (one 10mm diameter spring from 1mm wire, one about 25 diameter spring from 1.4mm wire)<br />
- another small bolt for nut<br />
- two wood screws acting as a tailpiece.<br />
- two nails as string trees<br />
- two cheapest tuners I have found here.<br />
<br />
Extremely fun as there is quite an echo, brilliant harmonics and a lot of scratches appear while it is played so no fake distressing here :D 4AM Nightmare improvisation on Valkyrietag:www.cigarboxnation.com,2019-01-05:2592684:Video:32686252019-01-05T15:48:30.054ZTomaszhttps://www.cigarboxnation.com/profile/Tomasz

</a><br />Today I found that my favourite CBG got pretty fun distortion (due to bridge displacement, a loosening strings a bit, so they are not pushing the bridge against top as hard as usual)<br />
Been twanging around whole morning
