What do you think?!
I’m a sculptor and this is my most recent work... It’s a 12 string touch style much like a Warr, Stick, Megatar, etc... It’s only my second guitar build and my first guitar was only a 6 string so be gentle...... I pretty much wanted to build this upon hearing Behold... The Arctopus for the first time...... I modeled much of the set up and schematics after the touch style instruments that Kevin Siebold (Krappy Guitars) builds because he was kind enough to explain some things to me but mostly due to my lack of knowledge in building touch style instruments...... but I obviously went my own route on the shape..... Keep in mind!.. I have yet to put a finish on the wood so it’s still bare... It’s the only step left... but it is entirely playable.... The build time is roughly a month and a half and was essentially a summer project
Any thoughts or questions are welcome from anyone willing to share them..
