This is my first attempt at building an acoustic version based upon CBG set-up. Uses support struts, purfling, aluminium sides. I was going for a resophonic type sound. BTW it has fantastic sound, projection without a pickup. The pickup is a 'flat-pup' style (my first use of one) and I'm extremely happy with the 'authentic' CBG sound. If you haven't used a flat-pup before try one, they are low profile and sit on top of the sound board (no cutting holes).
