Thanks uncle John. Doing lots of researching and looking at images to get ideas. Asking lots of questions and trying to learn from others to avoid expensive pitfalls that I can't afford to make financially right now. I think it's going to work well with the box. Hopefully anyway.

You could go places with a case like that.   Good wishes.  I can see that making a good guitar.

Thanks Lane. It's just plywood half covered in leather and stained to look like quality wood. Hopefully I'll get a good build from it. Best bit is it only cost me £14, about $20, including delivery. Winnage.

That's a sweet box.

New box for build. Here's the steps so far.
Stage one, order the box.
Stage two, wait for the box.
Stage three, box gets delivered.
Stage four, do a lil dance.
