Will do.

Sounds like fun. Don't get on that side of the river often. Used to ride up in the hills. Beautiful! Drop me a line, we'll see what works out.

Very nice.   Hey, Al.  I am up in Harlan, Iowa.   Would you be interested in a small CBG get together in Council Bluffs if Maddog and I and maybe some others get together?    Kind of thinking a warm spring day would be good.

Hey Keith, yeah I didn't take pics of the inside. The lid is held on by bronze colored screws to match the bronze design on the lid. The neck runs all the way through. Yeah I wasn't too worried about the strings digging in. My first cbg was done with string ferrules underneath. There has been some cutting, but not enough to harm the playability.

Love  the look of this tin and guitar. Do you have pictures of doing the inside? You can take rivets apart, and use the barrel to protect the strings from pulling into the wood. Like your use of the picks.
