I have a question for you English guys. Is it inappropriate to call a person from Liverpool "Scouser"? I like the term and its background, but as a German I have no idea how it is perceived on the British Isles. So I wanted to take the chance to clarify this...



cheers

Welcome. I've been wanting to start building partscasters, and then move onto set neck and neck thru. I have access to a wood shop but need a mentor.

Last amp was a KLD

Its easier than you think. Try building a lap steel or electric dulcimer as a starter. Keep it simple and keep it cheap. An electric dulcimer would be awesome say a four sting setup for slide. Just an idea. A couple of mine here. An LP with a neck through body and a whammy. A semi acoustic LP and a telle with a set neck, gibson scale and maple burr top.

Also a photo of the seldom used dulcimer the tuning pegs were a mistake a should have used standard tuners.

I do make pickups as and when needed this saves a few £££ the bonus is i can make any pickup that i fancy trying if i dont like the cost is minimal ( a few oz of copper wire and a bit of time ).

If you dont try you will never have any success.
