relic, electric, six, string, 6

I tried to make this guitar look as if it was built 80 years ago. The tailpiece, bridge and even the nut are made entirely from from wood.I'm playing a Buddy Holly's solo from It's so easy and a bit of Yaketty Axe. Just to show that you can play more than blues on these things :)
