So, my church updated some electrical work, and one of the light fixture casing boxes was replaced. They let me take it. I made a guit. Used part of a computer box as a lid, which has screens for sound holes already, and cut out some screenage for a hole on the side. Four springs inside for reverb. Acoustic only. Tuned G-B-D. Sounds good!

Andy do you have a photo of the spring install? I've been wanting to try this.

COOLness! Would love to hear it on the Nation re. the reverb. I have springs just haven't gotten around to doing one like that yet myself. Kudos! -Glenn
