  Whatever malfunctions may have ocurred during the build, this turned out really nice. The acorn nuts give a great finished look.

  This box was a total experiment.
  I ruined the top.
  so I flipped the lid, and ruined that as well.
  So I stripped it back to bare wood and stained it.
  Then I masked off the paper border around the rest of the box and stained the wood.
  A little of the border lifted when I removed the tape, But not that much.
  I then had to redesign the headstock because I used smaller tuners to mark out the holes.
  I then botched the pickup route, and had to try and use a old ruined box to make a makeshift pickup ring / accent peice.
  Now, if I can get some 2 more strings tomorrow, I can play this bad boy.. lol
