Fully acoustic - and a single coil pick-up as well! I can get 10000 winds and still get it to fit into the new larger, stronger steel bracket that joins the lightweight tin to the neck.
The experiments are done, the coils work great with big, full sound and now I begin production.
I think I will change the back of the necks as well: instead of a V shape, I'm going to go for the 'D' shape, which I did for the wider 6-string fretboard. It will, however, add a slightly greater weight. For the lesser hand fatigue, I think it may be worth it. We'll see.
