GDg fretted. Loud acoustic, but a boxy tone. Will stick a disc piezo in it when my Gitty order gets here. The big socket/slide has my dad's name etched on it. I keep it for a shop slide.

This was from one of 2 pieces of oak on a pallet. The box top is 'flipped' - inside now out.

Thanks Maddog.   Thanks, Darryl - yup, the scale is longish.  66cm - just under 26 inches.   When I use the Stew Mac fret calculator, I use cm rather than inches.  I have yard stick with centimeters on one side.  Easier to measure in cm.

Good call on the lid flip John, I love the look with the 5 cents on there. The dark wood on the neck goes well with the Pacemaker lettering!

Thanks, Gitz.  I like the look too.  Plays nice, but sounds 'boxy'.   I think a slightly higher saddle will improve it a bit.
