Oil paint stripes still a bit sticky but I got the Abalone in without smearing. She sounds great! Box Bucker under my neck mount. Side sound hole. Good acoustic and electric!

Thanks Ambrose. I got another custom print from Gitty. It’s next up. ...

Thanks AGP. I THINK YOU’d like the kit. It fit together very well. And they use quality plywood. Very tight grained and strong. Yet it sounds good too.

Outstanding colourful artwork Dave!, have been thinking about the Gitty Custom Box Kit for some time now, this lovely build just might convince me purchase one :-)

That is a "Smokin" build Dave... beautiful!... ditto on Uncle John's 9.9s + imperial measurment!

Thanks Uncle John. I’ll post a sample soon. Blue finger notwithstanding...

Thanks Poorness. I like the Gitty kit boxes. They have a good sound. I like your Gitty Boxes too.
