    Cardboard and duct tape.  Pretty cool and the box is replaceable.  The more I look and think about this one, the more I like it.

    @Brian, nope - no bracing at all. As it's Uncle Crow style all the tension is being held by neck only.
    @Lonman very cool reso! Thinking of building one with tuna and beer cans :)

    Reminds me of my only cardboard build. I did this one for a coworker's grandchild.

    Kool, I did a few cardboard box basses before, even a pizza box Diddley. You’ve got wood bracing on the inside, right?
