On the bench: Took parts of an old CBG I wasn't playing and made the new guitar.Padron 3000 box. 25 1/2" scale neck. Brushed aluminum back end. The sound hole is an old bicycle horn. Yes, those are pop rivets on the aluminum plate.Needs a little more work. Should be a good little guitar.

    Philip -- I picked up some aluminum flashing at Home Depot.  I put a some wire brush bit on my drill press and polished away.  Pretty simple.

    I am pleased with how it turned out.
