here Roger thought i`d let you hear me and miki`s version of Amazing Grace. We do it alittle faster then the standard version, more of our own style. Hope you like anyway.
i used what i had laying around some D string and a .016 B string. on the blind willie johnson d bow on you tube he uses a .052 E string and some type of unwound G im guessing a .o22 both tuned to C
Hey Roger
Thanks! That one is 29.75 I down loaded that scale from Scotty's or Shanes site. It puts the bridge up on the box some. Its a 4 stringer. Just like the 3 string construction wise. Thanks for watching Lenny
The headstock is basically cut in half, flipped over and then glued onto the back. The area of the neck coming away from the fretboard, and the fretboard itself, are both cut at a 45 degree angle beforehand. Same for the piece that gets glued onto the back. Then a whole lot of sanding to get the angles smooth and make it look nice. It's really just a slight variation of Bill Jehle's method on his instructional DVD. They do look nice, but they are a pain in the a*% to do using only hand tools as I do.
