I admire someone who knows what he can and cannot do and proceeds to make something within his skill set with off-the-shelf parts. That's kind of cool.

Of course, if it does not work reasonably well, then it's just an interesting looking pile of useless crap. Enlarging the undercarriage pic, the visible quality of the work & attention to detail---how shall we say---does not appear to compensate for the lack of machining knowhow.

I talked to the man who built it , its a pull release double 8 e9 c6 setup I applaud his efforts in his creation , it might not look like much or even play well but his effort says a lot about who he is and his desire to create and who knows with some encouragement he might go on to do some good things in the future.

I think it is cool for a homemade guitar. I have seen a changer that looks similar to that one on a guitar before. Can't remember.
