Turned a folk art wall hanger into a playable instrument. Lots of shortcuts, but it does play. Made the bridge from a hard maple cutoff and carpentry staples. A learning experience for sure.

That looks really cool ! That must have been a ton of work based on the before pics.

@ianhatesguitars It was more work than I expected, but luckily the neck runs through the body and was easy to remove to make the leveling of the frets easier.

@patreon_94549210 Co-workers wife bought it for her mother, and then he asked me to make it functional. I took it on as a learning opportunity. Has a very unique sound.

@amateurjon You should look up and follow Fred Carlson, he’s about as unique as a luthier can take it!

@patreon_94549210 Looking at his builds, I am nowhere close to his creativity or skill level. That is some truly impressive work.
