Thanks for the tips Pick, have used a Prewired "Gitty Amp Kit" in a One Gallon Rum Can build with no prob's. but think I'll go with a timber build after I've done a bit of homework on the wiring side :-)

altho i have done many built in amp guitars  , i can't take credit for this one ,  it's a Keith Allan  build. Metal can cause many issues  especially  in an amp  .. including rattling   etc . but can be done . your idea sounds feasible .  Just keep everything separated from the tin (with rubber / washers etc)and  keep that speaker as far away from the pickup as you can get it  .   those are my tips  ;-)  no need for the seperations with  wood tho .  ps . mason jar rubber liners work great  to separate speakers  from the tin .  ;-)

Cool Vid Pick, now I know what the Anon Pick Sound is all about!, and only you could come up with a word like "Hauntomonous"  :-)

Love the CBG with built in Amp & Amp Jack, I recently purchased an Artec 2.5W Speaker Drive Amplifier with the intention of using it in a largish 10ltr US Jerry Can as an Amp, and then thought why not do a build in Amp Git, I also purchased an Artec QDD Quadra-Distortion (Psycho Knob), you being the Master of the "Built In Amp" do you think it's feasible or even possible to incorporate the 2 in the one build, I'm also thinking they might test ones soldering skills, of which I'm reasonably confident I can do , but not sure if I'll use the Jerry Can or just do Box Build to suit :-)

cheers AGP ,  ps .. on the" Anon pick sound "   i  fully agree with Dave  ,   when i first joined here  , i made a fun lil   album called  "hauntominous"  , with a ghostly    halloween    theme  . From your first notes on this Video  it was all i could think of ,  a very close  match  .  The video is old now ,and  play button is disabled on   it (as most old vids here)  , but  ill look for a playable copy  .

The comparison  you will find uncanny .
