Gitty has some 'illustrated' paint can lids for resonators and I liked the looks of this one. It is not embossed, but from 6 or so feet back it looks pretty cool. My guitars also tend to be '6 footers'.

Sound: pretty good. A bit resonator like.

Overall, I am satisfied with it.

Thanks, Brian.  I agree with your kind words.  Thanks so much. 

Thanks, Jerry.  I agree with your kind words too.  I might some time when it is warm outside, try to use the spray paint method of doing a sunburst.   Good wishes with your wine box build.

Thaks, Dave.  Older build.  Fun to change it up.

Looks great Unc. Will be looking for a tune.

Comment by Brian Thompson on February 14, 2019 at 7:15am

I love it Unc, it's brilliant! It has 'real' character and it has so much of 'you' in it, and that's what makes it for me. It is played and enjoyed which is THE most important thing of all, that and the fact that YOU built it YOURSELF!! Cool build Unc, well done!
