Well its actually pretty simple! Antrider got it, glue and clamps! But the wood must be joined before you glue it up. That way you have tight seam. I use tightbond regular...you can get it at almost every hardware store.


And remember...always protect your loved ones!! Ha!

this reminded me of watching this real life prison show and it showed some inmates who had made their own self amplified guitars out of who knows what.

that might be fun to do.
whatever you did would certainly have a unique sound all it's own by default - unless you followed someone else's pattern of course.
