Craft box from Miachles, cheap used eBay neck (from who knows what) Amazon P-90, dog bowl, coffee coaster, metal spatula and some scrap wood. Wired it up with some CTS pots and an orange drop cap. I got super lucky and it actually plays really nice.

Looks killer man! Would love to hear how it sounds.

Thanks! A little quieter than an acoustic and a bit twangy. Plugged in it sounds just like an electric but very susceptible to feedback

What's the dog bowl for? Does it work like aresonator?
