come into focus
Part of this was already done years ago, but the project failed to hold my attention.
When I had time...
during #stayhome
I used some broken pieces of a classical guitar with a broken neck and some leftover redwood to marry the neck to the amp cabinet. The bridge/amp assembly was leftover since 2016.
out of many, one.
E Pluribus Unum was once the motto of the United States of America and references the fact that the cohesive single nation was formed as the result of the thirteen smaller colonies joining together.
This was a "broken neck project" meets "going back into it" (artist lingo) on another project. redwood was used to fill in the missing parts of the neck that was needed.
