(but hey - the rhyme works in my language :P )<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 Valkyrie tag:www.cigarboxnation.com,2019-01-05:2592684:Video:3268625 2019-01-05T15:48:30.054Z Tomasz https://www.cigarboxnation.com/profile/Tomasz <a href="https://www.cigarboxnation.com/video/4am-nightmare-improvisation-on-valkyrie"><br /> <img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/664137660?profile=original&amp;width=0&amp;height=0" width="0" height="0" alt="Thumbnail" /><br /> </a><br />Remember Valkyrie?<br /> Headless slanted cigarbox?<br /> I his time is recorded plugged in.
