very interesting design. i like things like this.
only thing that i do not care for is the string angle at the bridge from the tuner to the saddles on the outside strings. any way to lessen that??...different machine head set up.. maybe a retaining piece behind the bridge that would sum up the strings to a straighter pull across the saddles.
you must have a heck of a cut in the saddles to keep the strings from popping out while playing.
best to you with your design. its tough to go against the grain with things like this. |

| untouched stock tune-o-matic from allparts, the break angle to the tuners provide enough downward presure that the strings stay put |

| You say "designed with...steel player in mind" Is that because it is designed to be comfortable to play while seated behind a PSG? |

I had a Breadwinner, could absolutely NOT play it sitting down. I think the bottom scoop would've fit someone about eight foot nine. Bought it for about $100 and sold for about the same, now they get a couple thousand I've been told. |

"now they get a couple thousand I've been told."
That's good news – I have a really nice Deacon (the fancy version) sitting in my closet, not knowing what it was worth. 
By the way, this one looks like a lot of fun and well worth trading for. |
