Bosco
A three string fretted neck, tuned G B E, and a two string fretless neck, tuned A D, using guitar machine heads and heavy gauge flatwound guitar strings (when these break I will replace them with music wire as it is far more responsive to bowing). The necks are 1 1/4 black pipe. The bows are violin bows. Each neck is amplified by a single coil magnetic pick-up.
