Hi guys ,new here .just putting in my two cents.have made several resonator steel body guiters.start with a sheet of 20 gauge steel cut and weld. so far i use stewart/macdonald cones and biscutes. make my own cover plates.but an acr to them ,flat just don`t look right.have been using an acoustic neck i find and making it work.try and keep the distance from nut to 12th fret them same as 12th fret to the bridge.having trouble posting pics ,thanks for the great forum. steel is real!!
