Here, Roberto shows us his latest build. It's a cuatro (a small traditional Latin American guitar-like instrument), but given a modern-day twist as a solidbody electric instrument. It's also a headless design with the tuners situated at the base of the body.
Roberto has more pictures of the finished instrument here, plus photos of it during construction here.
Also, unless I'm much mistaken, isn't this cuatro left-handed?

guitarz.blogspot.com: Here's an oddity from 1960s Japan that I find curiously appealing for some reason that I cannot fathom. It's a Teisco electric banjitar. That's right, a solidbody electric 6-string banjo. With a whammy bar! Actually,...
- Shergold Marathon Bass Vi Left-handed 6-string Bass Circa 1986
guitarz.blogspot.com: We looked at a Shergold Marathon Bass VI earlier in the year, but the example now pictured here is even rarer simply because it is a left-handed version. I'm particularly pleased to feature this instrument on the blog as I am...
