  I wanted to do something with a tiny monte box to match the 5 stringer monte box.
  It does look quite wierd. :)
  It may not work to well, it may play like a champ.
  I will find out soon ..lol
  
  Thanks for your comments guys, it is great to get some feedback from my fellow builders. :)

  It is a joyitas box, it is tiny..lol
  The box is only 5/34 long ;)
  The bridge will sit in the middle of the box to make it 25.5 scale.
  The bolts are not attached to the box, string pressure keeps them in place.
  
  I used the fret scale page at stew mac to get measurements.
  Pop rivet fret markers
  And I used screws at dot markers.
  This is my 2nd attempt at fret markers.
  It is rough as guts, but it is a start. :)

  Hmm, first glance would suggest the bridge has to go where the neck enters the body ... ??????
  
  Assuming the 12th fret is half the scale.

  why so much distance between the frets and body?...also what did you use for markers..they look like screw heads...just curious I'm starting my first CBG and I'm a little nervous..
