Inspired by Glenn Reithers Cookie Monster build using the same tin. Jef Long suggested we all build one each... took me a year to get hold of a tin lol but finally did it. This build also influenced by Jefs builds having an under tin coil pick up and a zero fret. I also popped in two out put jacks one for the coil and one for the piezos that can be run through different amps. Many thanks to both Jef and Glenn for their inspiration & occasional goading. <3

Cheers all, yeah Be - crazy aussies putting biscuits in biscuit tins...lol. It sounds great - very loud through the amp. I have a busking amp with two inputs so I can plug both the coil and the piezos through the same amp and use the amp kinda like a blend pot when combine with the Tone and Volume from the coil. Just letting it settle & the strings to stretch before recording anything on it but soon-ish...
