It's quite ...hmmm... but it's still a guitar. Have look at the "reversed resonator can", the strings push upwards at the bridge, not downwards. An out there comes... promising sound! I add a sound file soon

Hi there, I'm so happy about having found this forum!! Feels good that there are other guys who like unusual handmade instruments, haha! Here´s a bass which was before a CBG gigbox (used wooden fruit trays). Later I put 4 strings (clutch&brake cables of motorcycles)
