    This one really is a firecracker!! The color scheme is fantastic and I LOVE the bridge. Very cool idea. The reminants on the ground below are a cool effect too. Great job, man!

    Thank you for the nice comments guys. This one was definitely a lot of fun to build. I reinforced the corners on the box and incorporated a number of suggestions I've read here into the design. Quite happily, she sounds absolutely fantastic!

    Another idea that I would never have come up with myself...I love it. I agree with Uncle John, love the bridge! This is the type of unique instrument that causes one to say, "Fender and Gibson, who?"

    That is just great.  Love the box and the colors and paint work are fantastic.  Ohhhh, the saddle!!   Nice back ground cracker trash too.
