I finished this a while ago but have been tweaking it ever since. It's got a back angled neck and a nice easy action that's still slide compatible. I restrung it with D'dario 10 G XL strings for ease of play. It's a composite box so brass corners are counteracting a warp in the lid that was causing some vibration.

Thanks for the sage advice and kind words Uncle John. I was undecided if it would be a 3 or 4 stringer when I started, should have opted for that spacious head stock!
Looks very good. Some of these things take a lot of tweaking and sometimes some putting away for a while. The one improvement I see for the future would be to make the head stock a little longer and put a bit more space between the nut and near tuners.
I like the kind of string action/height that you describe.
