TIZ UNANIMOUS!! LUV DAT BRIDGE! Tiz perhaps the 2nd prettiest homemade bridge, I've ever seen! And they blew up the one on the River Kwai! lol

"Thanks Gary W aka Rev. Bluejeans", Yep!, I play nearly all my builds with a slide, because I am not very adept at fingering and playing chords :-(

"Thanks Andries D. EKER" for the kind comment.

I'm agreeing with previous posts - very nifty bridge!  Very CBG-ish....  And I have to ask: do you need to play this gitty with a slide?  ;-)

"Thanks Uncle John", all fingers still intact, and were working just fine last night, when they were wrapped around a "Cold Can of XXXX Beer" (or 2 or 3 or etc..................)

"Thanks the anonymous pick", seen a few similar bridges on CBN, and this was just my take on one.

Do you have as many fingers as when you started drilling those holes?   Nice job.
