done if I missed anything please yell didn't have room for the 4 pots like I wanted lol but its a player

Did you use stacked pots since you didn't have room for the standard four?

no sir master volume and tone

Might be something to consider if you want it to sound More Paul.

Wow, that came out looking real nice...

Love the box, love the build.  Sweet as triple 0 honey.

good lookin CBG... nice solution to box being a little short.  Question:  How thick is the wood that you installed to attach the bolt on neck too?  My concern is how well it will hold up over time.  Please give a report after 100 hours of play time.  Good Job!  the best, Wichita Sam

I used 3/4" thick 2 1/8" red oak 1/2" thick glued to the box lid got some over 5 years old and they still play great

the video my young friend Seth is testing it out for sound

Thanks Allen... good idea to tuck away....

Hwy allen , thanks for sharing this man,   really like the how toos,  thanks again for sharing it . 

now every one has a cheap guitar with a bolt on neck somewhere a $20 one squire r Johnson that they don't play hide from everyone this build would make good use of that guitar it will sound better than it ever did if you put in in a box lol  thanks for all the kind words
