Faux Vox 4 String

Finally got her done. Learned some stuff along the way. This is build #14 for me. First one not to use a cigar box or a cookie tin. I'll try to posy a vid sometime soon. It sounds pretty darned good if I say so myself. And plays like butter.

I'm the FNG, so asking a few questions, if you don't mind, Tim.

Is this an original design? What materials did you use to build it? Solid body, semi-hollow,? Finish? Why two volume controls? Flat top or arched? Lovely stain job, and the finish is first rate. Guessing varnish.

Looks great, Tim. Almost as if Vox had originally made a tenor electric teardrop in the 60's. Awesome!
