Cookie Tin Guitar

Post by ernieman » Fri Jun 21, 2013 12:12 am

While I was waiting on my tools (which were in the container coming from Belgium), I just wanted to do "something"...
Used a file, a rasp, a handsaw and some timber from Bunnings...
In the end it looks pretty ok :mrgreen:
Has a handmade PU too!

Ceder neck, Cypress fretboard.

Nice, they are addictive. I have 3 u basses on the go/ hold.

For those not familiar with the u bass sound.

The Biscuit PU is a cast resin one. I made a latex mold of a cookie first, then poured resin into it et voila :)
