This is a three string model. The body is a bit different because I cut the wood from the graveyard crosses and glued them together in a different way than with the first version. It’s thinner (4cm) and lighter of course.
Below you can see some photos. This is a very nice guitar if you play blues slide or would like to start. It has many advantages to just open tuning a standard 6 string. Nice actually, when I heard it I thought about keeping it:) but I won’t because I built it for someone.
