Walker's Chocolate Covered Nuts box - If you come across one of these boxes grab it!!! Appears to be ash, excellent volume and tone. Tuners scavenged from craptacular First Act yard sale find, poplar neck and fretboard, copper nails as fret markers, fretboard dyed with Kiwi shoe leather dye, fretwire from C.B.Gitty

Thanks. This one is already gone so I'll have to decline the mission...stellar idea though. Somewhat a bit of luck to find a decade old Walker's box on this side of the pond, kinda wish I hadn't passed this git on.

Great stuff! Your mission (if you choose to accept it) is to play this instrument at each of those historic British castles. You have a year...Good luck.
