ARTURO FUENTE serial # 001




Here's the first finished model using a Arturo Fuente box. The classic 3-string build. I have it equipped with a Radio Shack piezo transducer for a pick-up. On this, my first build....I accidently made the poplar neck too long. Scale length pushes 28" !! So, one trick I like is to move the bridge towards and away from the nut changing the scale length & tuning which in turn also changes tone as well.
