CB Gitty 9x12 box Kit: who has used it, how do you like it, what are the potential issues youve found with bracing, top attachment, whatever

Posted by Saigon Bob on September 17, 2017 at 9:13am in Building Secrets, Tips, Advice, Discussion

Hi I'm in Ho Chi Minh City, and the dearth of folks willing to gie up cigar boxes (The Humidor is the big retailer) has got me in a twist. I finally decided to eat the massive postage cost and order 3 of them with my last order, along with everything else I'll need to finish 2 cbgs I've got in the works.

This post is a call for those who've used the kit. Give me pics, techniques, victories and defeats. My plan is for 2 bgs, both pickuped, with a paint lid resonator on one. I have 2 necks pretty much ready to go, 2 cb gitty fretboards, and design ideas percolating. I would love to see a big response to this post with pictures and advice as to how to best use the kits. 

Fire away, I'm anxious to hear from the more experienced folks on this forum about their uses, troubles, and successes. Thanks in advance.

    Sorry you have no replies yet, SB!  I have been curious about this box kit as well.  I was hoping to see some chime ins here.  Maybe I can bump it up with the post and hope to find some builders that have used this kit.  Best.
