Named after the 5 Vegas cigars that came in the box (6 inches and 60 ring gauge) for my 60th. 3 string usually tuned low to EBe. It full of junk I’ve kept. Photos and writings and a coyote tooth inside the box...

Thanks UncleJohn and DougThorsvik! The coin at the base if the neck is a 10 peso piece from a short stint living in Mexico. The whole thing is really an old guy overindulging himself on a birthday. I had all this stuff and I started incorporating it in the build. Eventually photos and trinkets clogged the inside of the box and hurt the sound quality! I backed it off and tried to hit just decade bdays.
Wow! Great looker with lots of nice details from the slotted head stock the strainer sound holes, bean can reso and that cross medallion (that I can not se in this photo.) Needs a rope for a guitar strap. ;)
