I have been building stringed musical instruments since 1976. I fabricated the shell, neck, and resonator.
the neck is made from Honduran Mahogany with a two way adjustable truss rod, an Ebony fingerboard, a head-stock of my own design with my logo, and planetary tuners. The shell is three ply maple, with a Stew Mac Flat head tone ring. The resonator has two concentric rings on the back and the entire instrument is finished with 12 coats of lacquer.
