Hi everyone !!!sorry for my delay on the CBG project,i'm almost done with my first one but still waiting for the tuning pegs to show up after almost two week of waiting and also buy a camel bone on ebay for the bridge and nuts, so for now i have two sound hole and a older pickup that i've got from a old but ship guitar, though it look great but never heard it so hope it will sound good, and also got a full scale for the maple neck that i had to sharpen down to 1 5/8 cause of a mistake i made while working on it, so i might go for a 4 string still but i might try the 3 string aswell to see wich one would feel best for the neck, also since the box was so thin, i had to make it stronger so i glue maple piece of wood inside all around it to make it stronger, so the box inside is all maple and the neck aswell and will put a mahogany fretboard on it aswell to give it a nice finishing look !!!i will take picture of the inside and the finishing product when i got the pegs :DLater ,Patrick
