Here are some of those dirty details I promised in the last blog. I hope you enjoy them. Guitar/Hardware nerds rejoice!
Thanks again Jay Patton for all these specs.
The top of this guitar is my old license plate from 2004ish.
The bridge is a nut and bolt.
The volume knob is a valve stem cap (like on your car’s tire)
The body is made out of ¾” cedar plank.
We have 3 lil soundholes at the top so I can hear every damned mistake I make.
The construction is neck-through with a 24.75” (Gibson) scale. Does that qualify it as a Gibson Guitar....Sure!
The pickups are 2 piezo disks wired in parallel with a 250k volume pot.
The tail piece is a metal exhaust hanger/bracket
The back of the guitar is sheet metal.
The nut is cow bone
The tuners are plain ol’ open gear tuners with pearloid keys
The fret dots are nail heads.
The neck is oak with a ¼” oak fretless fretboard (the wings on the headstock are maple)
