New 3 stringer. From a thin, paper covered Cuban box. Ripped/ and sanded off (most of) the paper, kept a relic look, and added a lacquer finish to both the box and the neck. Bone nut, bolt bridge, oak(?) neck, piezo with volume knob and a braced/enforced box. As always, no power tools, except the drilling machine (and soldering iron), was used.

    ...so you have very good hands!

    Thanks. It is a lot more work and more time consuming doing everything by hand, but I like the fact that you can see minor human footprints or "errors" on the CBG. I have access to a fully equipped workshop just 15min from my house, but I prefer to sit on the patio in the backyard. Now I've been sitting there in the snow :)

    Looks good.  Extra soul from doing so much by hand.
