Wide-neck six string acoustic with converted humbucker by Rodeo/PCGC

A Wide-Neck Rodeo with custom metal converted humbucker
(48mm nut with 42mm E to E, and 60mm E to E at the bridge)

This guitar is ideal for the acoustic/electric+ guitarist with big hands who wants to try something unique... I cannot remember seeing an acoustic with a seven string custom humbucker before I built this one!(Yesterday, to give more bite and edge to the tone I converted the humbucker from twin to single coil)
I have just been playing it a bit today so it is new to me, but through my little Roland cube 30 it has quite a sweet tone with a strong jazz styled mid range... I cranked it up a bit and had some fun with the feedback electro acoustics are famous for.
After my set up on a set of salvage strings that I have now cut off, I have strung it with Ernie Ball tens (.010 to .046) as this gauge gives a bit more resonating mass to get the acoustic body ringing, though normally on this Fender 25.5 inch scale I like to fit nines and only use tens on the shorter Cibson scale to keep the same string tension as the longer scale.
To start with I used white Fender strat knobs on volume and tone, but soon decided black would better match the pickup and scratch-plate.You will also find it hangs better than with the usual strap to the head attachment, as on this one I drilled the heel and fitted a strap-button there for much better balance if you use it on-stage.
As always my objective is to make a guitar with as fast and light an action as I think is sensible to give it... who wants the strings actually lying along the frets!So truss rod, and string grooves in the nut, fret levelling, and bridge action have all been worked carefully on to get the best an acoustic will allow.
So you can have yourself a fairly unique but now single coil for clarity humbucker powered wide neck acoustic and try some advanced finger-style guitar, or just to give your old chipolatas extra room if you have big working hands.Thanks for having a look,Mark D Phillips.......
