  • Thanks, Jerry.  I salvage that neck and rebuilt it.  Waiting on strings and crossing my fingers that it will be a player yet.

  • very pretty.,.,better luck next time.,.,!!

  • Will, that is what I was after.   Nice.

  • 306593226?profile=RESIZE_1024x1024306594921?profile=RESIZE_1024x1024We just built 5 of these for our local CBG club, The Sacramento Area CBG Workshop.  The box is a little longer and we used only one strip of 1/6th thick ply cut from a box bottom to reinforce the string holes.  Great sound.

  • Very pretty! I like how the FB goes over the sound hole. Stick a piezo in to make it louder!
