Also the first time that I've attached the neck to the bottom (no the lid) of the box. Just going to use a clear poly finish this time...no stain. This is my 3rd build since Christmas. I really do need to take a little break....but I just can't!!!!!

Right, but when you do think out, one standard I mean, and having parts all at hand, how long do you think up it could take to you?

A question I get daily from customers is," How long does it take to build a CBG"?
I've never built just one,so I tell them I have no idea which surprises them. I then explain that I generally have anywhere from 4 to 10 going at the same time.

I know what you guys mean. I'm on my fifth one right now. And that's after building seven guitars.
CBGs are a lot more fun, and cheaper too. They also offer a lot more options on what you can do to them.
They are very addictive.

I know, I am on another build since Christmass all ready......it's never ending. I went from just slaping a cbg together....now I own a sewing machine that has found a new home on my work bench I am going to use to wind my own pickups. I have license plates all over I have been collecting, more wire I got for free that you can shake a stick at and home depot is my one stop shop for neck material and fret board. It's very ADDICTIVE!
