flat and polish - what's the trick ?
I had a hair comb once with Bronco toilet paper over it, made a lovely sound and your lips tingle! Trouble is you can't seem to get Bronco toilet paper now, youngsters nowadays miss out on such a lot!!

When you consider that Fender was a radio tech with no musical ability & with the help of a few friends & business associates managed to produce what would become a standard. By the marriage of pickups made for arch tops & their associate treble cut tone/volume & a simply switch, this became the blueprint for what was to follow.
The bolt on neck, a brilliant first guess shape, more chance meetings & players wanting to use them than any company deserved & all βbefore breakfastβ.
He hadnβt thought about building the Stratocaster & the Telecaster was still the Broadcaster.
And as far as I can recall; the rest is history.

Izal, the Les Paul of bog paper.
Bronco; more of a Strat.
You could make a great base baritone Kazoo sound out of a big comb & school tracing paper.
