Vintage Coke Tin Strummer-23 3/4" bluescimer scale, cherry neck/heel, piezo embedded in the cherry bridge, bottle opener tailpiece. It's really sounds great acoustically and even better when I team it up with the UJ HogsHead amp.

We got the CBG fever Thomas and there ain't no cure (thank goodness).

Know what you mean about looking at things...Seems like the first thoughts these days are "what would that sound like". :)>

Thanks Craig, you know you have the sickness when you look at things and auto pilot says it should be a git.

Thank ya Thomas, building stuff like this is so much fun it should be illegal :-)

Thank you John, I am always in "what can I turn that into that it wasn't meant to be" mode.

Thanx Dave, sorry to hear about the teeth :-( I drink Diet Dew which is probably not a whole lot better.

Appreciate it Clock, it is fun isn't it. I hope it never gets old.

Maddog, great build! I have no teeth because of coke, but love what you've done with this great tin. Good job...

Wow.  You build great stuff out of stuff I would not consider.   Good name too. 

Comment by Thomas "Duck" Petry on January 12, 2013 at 9:45am

Cool build. Nice to find stuff like a can like that to build with. Half the fun is seeing the results!

Comment by Craig Mayhem on January 12, 2013 at 9:22am

Neat! Very cheeky. A bottle - but not. Creative.

Comment by Maddog on January 12, 2013 at 9:20am

Thanks so much Vinnie!
