<p>Warren, Brian is the big dog around here. I love the flat pups, I use them almost exclusively. It will make a great electric, but please paint tape the areas you are working on cause those tops are very easy to scratch. </p>
<p>MadGomer, is a big dog too</p>

<p>Warren, here's an example of a flatpup, many other options to choose from. CB Gitty is a good source. </p>

<p>These are nice because they simply mount on the surface, just as long as your fretboard and bridge design provides sufficient string height. Other mag pickups would require that you carve out the top and potentially the neck to get the right clearance.</p>

<p>Thank you. Yeah, I definitely want the top on show. I'm not too au fait with parts as yet, can you tell me what a Flatpup is? I assume it's a pickup of some sort?</p>
<p>Thanks for the tip on searching for others with the same box. I'll have a good look.</p>

<p>That's exactly what I needed to know. Looks like my next build will be electric, so I'm off to the drawing board to work out what I'm going to do with it. Thank you for your help.</p>
