Great lookin' git, Ron. Coincidentally, I picked up the same box at a cigar store 2 weeks ago. Picked it up, put it down, then grabbed it up again on the way out. I had to get over my square box bias, I guess. Now I am inspired to move the box up to the front of the line! Thanks for sharing.

Uncle John; Thanks for the kind words.  Tuned it to EADG using 3-6 from medium 6 pack.

A musician friend really likes it and said it will be great for rhythm work.  Next one will use 1-4.

Sharp looking!

Looks good, what tuning?  A three pole pickup and four strings?  Call the CBG police!   Kidding.  I did the same thing.  Git started as a three and ended up a four.   You've done a better job keeping the strings close to the poles than I did.   Mine works great for 3 strings and only fair for the small ones.   Very cool build.
