Skeleton Key Guitars “Dirty Copper” Custom Handmade 3-String Electric Guitar

Skeleton Key Guitars “Dirty Copper” Custom Handmade 3-String Electric Guitar

Three strings, a whole lot of imagination, and personality to spare! This custom handmade Skeleton Key guitar takes the homemade cigar-box guitar spirit in a wonderfully creative direction. Its metal-can body, copper-colored textured finish, and turquoise paint splatters give it a rustic, industrial look that immediately grabs your attention.

Appropriately named “Dirty Copper,” this unusual instrument features a natural-finished wooden neck, a fretted fingerboard, and the Skeleton Key skull-and-key graphic on its headstock. Threaded metal hardware serves as the nut and bridge, adding to its inventive, homemade character. A wood-covered three-pole pickup and side-mounted output jack complete the electric setup.

The back bears the handwritten name “Dirty Copper,” number 257, the date 1-21-21, Skeleton Key Guitars branding, and a signature. Even the maker’s tag describes it perfectly: “Playable Art!”
