"Thanks UJ", Yep!, I love all these woods, the bonus being they're all recycled and free!, and I still have a healthy supply of them all, good comment about the proportions, one of my more recent builds, AGP #386, "Arse-Up-Arnie, just felt so right, size wise when I played it, that I based the Box size on the Biscuit Tin I used on it, for this Git, 11"x7"x2½", and the 26" scale length was determined by the fact, that if possible I like to have access to 19 Frets, which this one has! :-)
