The latest from Blind Hog Guitars. This one features a red oak and bamboo neck, gold tuners and tailpiece and a piezo pick up. The box is a "Hellcat" brand. Very nice looking and unplugged this is the loudest one I have built. Can't say why exactly as the construction was basically the same as any other. I will have to attribute it to the box itself which appear to be all mahogany.

The bamboo is from IKEA bed slats. It was one of those friend of a friend who had a cousin who knew a guy deals. Anyway the guy worked for IKAEA and beds often got damaged and scrapped and he was pulling the slats from the kits and bringing them home. I ended up with 20 or 30 of them for free.
