It seems like you are the man to ask for advice on a build like that. I am not fishing for any trade secrets just some helpful/cautionary info. Thanks-colin

At 6:45pm on November 21, 2009, bairfoot cajun said…: you inspired me to make a crossbreed canjo man. the cans do get vibration from the bridge cause the bridge touches each can so it has good tone but not a whole lot of volume. so i established a piezo under the bridge to be able to amp the canjo and it has great tone thru an amp. and the small sound box is astethetic only fer appearance. thanks fer the inspiration canjoe john.
