Thanks James O, YEP!, half the fun is trying to build something from different materials, waiting patiently to hear "Big Red", but quality can sometimes take longer than expected !!!!!!!!!
Thanks Erasmo, can't claim the Kudos for the handle being used for the bridge and saddle, copied he idea from a previous post by someone a few months back, and YEP!, gotta love those tins, just rounded up these beauties which have been gathering dust in my shed for the last couple of years, so I think one can guess what the next half dozen builds will be !!!!!!
Guess You can Build a Guitar out of anything great job. I was finally able to get pickups for Big Red Hope to finish it soon Man I'm a slow Builder been working on it over a year

"Thanks Elio"
Beautiful girl AGP! I do not love the high strings but the idea of using the handle to make an adjustable bridge is really very good. Good job !!!
