Thanks Jeff. This box was supplied by the lady who wanted the build. I'll check my box stockpile to see if I have any. I usually use these particular ones real soon when I get them. Hey, I haven't forgot that I still have one of your gits!

Nice mellow sound to this build Jim, the lady might have heard that sometimes, a guitar is referred to as an "Axe" ????

Hey Jim!!! another great one. Is there any chance you have another box like this one? I have been asked to build a bass with a pirate theme, the ship on these boxes is great for that. I used one Las Cabrillas box, the larger size( balboa-natural) and its my favorite guitar, the one I play mostly. I have not been able to locate another of these boxes anywhere and have been looking for about two months now. Let me know if you can help. 

Thanks, Jeff
