Cool!

I wonder if it was found in an old house or abandoned shed or something (reference to another eBay seller that spun a tall tale about the 'antique' CBG).

Keni Lee, is this the same builder as your moon and star box?

No, this is not the same builder as my large 6 string CBG . I do not know this builder personally. Of course not being able to play it, I cannot give a realistic opinion, but it looks like a quality build to me. I posted this because it looks like a nice instrument for a very reasonable price. Enjoy.

It does look like a dandy.
Yours has such a great sound that I'd be tempted to buy this one if it were a "sibling".
I can't really afford it, and SURE don't need it, but yours is pretty magical, so it would be a strong temptation.
I usually start a build session with your Jitterbug Swing.
It starts me off with a grin and a bounce..... and I need all the bounce I can get.

Thank you for your comments. Mine was built from old parts, a 1935 National guitar neck and an old S.S. Pierce import box. Also, James Millinchuk is a real strong builder. This one just needs about 80 or 90 years and it will become magical too. LOL Enjoy.
