This is a build from several years back. The body is chambered walnut sandwiched between Brazilian rosewood that was not useable for an acoustic guitar. I made the pickup rings, switch mount, and truss rod cover from copper and silver dust. It's not all polished up because I have played daily for almost five years.

Nice build. I really thought about using Alumimtone pickups on my current build, but ultimately went with something else. I really wish I could give them a shot IRL instead of relying on YouTube videos.I love the way they look.
