Thanks Ronnie.<br />

Have a good one all.

In the future, all cigar store owners will have CBG's hanging in their shops. Only the lucky ones will have CBG's as cool as Chris', though.

Paul, I have been drawing lines on that slab of wood for days now, think I have it whooped. Now just have to commit to cutting into it. As for sound holes.......i cant commit on a design yet, there coming. My second build which is almost done is going to the cigar shop owner, in return I stop in and get free boxes....as well as he will stash some of the larger ones from the civilians, HAHAHAHA<br />

That is a nice build, adding some decorative sound holes will only improve it. I'm really anxious to see the 42" scale one, get working.<br />
<br />
Does it wear off, not really. I have to break from it because I have soooo, many hobbies and so little time and money. But I never geit tired of looking and dreaming of what the next guitar build I want to do. Besides, I've got about 50 boxes waiting.<br />

Actually it is 25 and a half inch scale. There are only 14 fret positions actually on the neck, the rest are hidden from the long box. What i learned was i could let more neck protrude and have my bridge higher up the box. Thanks for the grain tips. I dont have a spoke shave but would like to try one out.<br />
