This is one of my favorites. It was my first attempt at making a guitar that looked “finished”, and is the first guitar I made with electric pickups. The box itself is beautiful. These Camacho boxes are popular for guitars because they have such a nice glossy finish. They are also very sturdy. I used a humbucker pickup, so the sound is clean. I added tone and volume pots, and matching silver hardware. This is one I go back to often when I want to noodle.
Trying it out with a distortion pedalTesting it with a Kalimba I made that has a piezo (contact mic) in itThe “Master of Puppets” riff. Never had a lesson folks!Testing…A little improvMe trying out some chordsThe finished product Made this plate from an old record The action is not too bad Tone and volume pots Bottom of the box Used a scarf joint to angle the headstock Love the glossy finish
