Relic rebuild finished. The Inside out guitar

My new old "archtop" inside out parlor guitar is finished. It is loud and proud acoustic or piezo electric with a Windy City Blues Box pickup glued under the bridge plate inside.

Sorry...every time I type "us," AutoType helpfully types "you suck." I don't think you do.

Dave,

Never go eyeball to eyeball with a brown recluse. They got more eyes than you do. Hey, you gonna post a vid of this build, show you suck what she sounds like?

Now i'm a little scared to pick up my guit Strat. I got bit by a brown recluse above my left eye and almost lost that eyeball. I'll get over it. I like her too much.....

Dave,

I just had a vision of a spider...or maybe Alien...playing Terraplane Blues...

Hey Strat, It's not hard getting in, just getting your arms back out to fret and pick.

Dave,

How do you squeeze yerself through that soundhole to play it? Must get loud in there...

I don't think i've seen an inside out guitar, but it works so well. The acoustic volume is amazing. I've got very light strings too. I think she likes playing again. I know its crazy, but the top laying on top of the guitar in a photo made for CBN gave me the idea. Thanks for the kind words fellas.
