Materials 1. 1-1inch by 36 inch dowel rod 2. 2-smaller gage guitar strings (12-16 gage) 3. one tin paint can, it can be small or large. 4. 2-3/8 inch by 4 inch dowel rods 5. 1-3/8 inch by 1 inch dowel rod 6. A wooden bridge, either custom made or bought. I had access to some power tools so i just made mine.
