Thanks for all the positive comments ,I kinda like the aged hokey antique look for these big boxes and a blowtorch is just the tool for the job.

I like that big box! And the aging is great!

Beautiful vintage look you produced on that, very nice!

That is wonderful.  I have a big box tenor that through time and messing, has become a really good player.  Mine is not nearly as pretty as this one.

Well, I take that back.  I sat here and considered darkening the body on mine.   But I like it like it is.  

Great build, man.  I hope you give DGBE tuning a try.   GDGB is pretty nice too.
