Just showing off my tenth build, a cool 2 string fretless cigar box guitar. This thing is powered by a custom Stonehenge pickup, made by Ted Crocker (which kicks ass!). From clean tones to some heavy metal distortion, I am loving the hell out of this instrument!One of these days, I'll actually rehearse what I'm going to play before I turn the camera on, I promise!
